From coast to coast

At 8h00, on October 16, 2018 By Christian Gendron

On October 16th at Parx in the 5th race, an Exacta Box bet on No 2 Koan with 1,4,7, a Key Trifecta on 2 with 1,4,7 and a Trifecta on 2,4 with 1,2,4,7 with 1,2,3,4,5,7. No 1 Grit’n’Grind & Danny O will take a lot of action, but No 1 Grit’n’grind will be on his first start in more than three months and even if he shows more class than the majority, it will have to overcome this obstacle and in 90 % of the cases, the horses need this departure for the fitness. No 4 Distinctive Ride (20/1) will be part of all our bets. He finished in the top three, seven times in the last eight starts and regardless of class and distance. No 2 Koan is and probably will be favorite and he should dictate this race from start to finish.

Jockey: Edwin Rivera 13 % — Coach: Francis Abbott 19 %

Proposed bet: October 16th, Parx, race 5

Exacta in box: 2 with 1,4,7

Trifecta with key: 2 with 1,4,7

Trifecta: 2,4 with 1,2,4,7 with 1,2,3,4,5,7
