Hollywood Park Free Selection For 12/18

Today's free selection comes in the fourth race, a nonwinners of one for fillies 3 years old and up. We are going to stick with the combo of Baffert-Garcia and go with the number 4 horse, Toro Bonito. She has been off since February of 09 but has been training well for this comeback. She is 4-1 on the morning line and looks spotted for the win today.

Hollywood Park Free Selection For 12/17

Today's free pick comes in the fourth race, a group of 2 year-old maidens going 1 1/16 miles over the cushion. A full field of seven goes here..well seven is a big field right now in Southern California..

Our pick is number 3, Broken Tango, a second-time starter from Bob Baffert. Has one route under his belt and Baffert has Martin Garcia riding here. They have hit with a 37% win rate over the last 60 starts when teamed up. Should get some value in a wide open race.

Hollywood Park Free Selection For 12/10/09

We finally broke through yesterday with Quoted in the sixth race paying $11.00 to win. Let's try to make it two in a row today with another nice priced horse.

Today's third race has only six entrants, and I will take a stand against the morning line favorites here. These are two-year olds going two turns, and I like the #1 horse, Ballerina Angel. I see this filly up close early or maybe even leading as she exits a couple of sprint preps for this race. Let's see if we can steal one here.

Hollywood Park Free Selection For 12/9/09

Sunday's selection just missed so we forge ahead today and hope we get into the winner's circle..

Today's free selection comes in the sixth race. This is a turf sprint for maidens and our pick in here is #7 Quoted. This horse is sharp right now and was just claimed by Doug O'Neill on Thanksgiving day. This guy should have what it takes against these to graduate today.

Hollywood Park Free Selection For 12/6/09

We will go over to Hollywood's sixth race today, a one mile event over the turf course. Very wide open race here which should offer some value.

Our free selection today is the number 4, Art Currency. This one is trained by Mike Mitchell and gets Joel Rosario to ride today at what should be a fair price. There should be enough early speed in here to set up this colt's late run. Let's see if we can break into the winner's circle today as we have been coming close but no cigar with our free selections.

Hollywood Park Free Selection For 12/4/09

Over to the 3rd race, the Winter Stakes for fillies 3 and up. Going to take a shot in here with #4 Reba Is Tops. She has the perfect running style for this race as there is alot of early speed in here. Let's hope she can sit just off the pace and pounce late to get up for the win.

Hollywood Park Free Selection For 12/3

Today's 5th race looks to offer some value and we are going with #7 Dreamalong here. The Julio Canani barn is red hot right now and this girl has had a nice prep race and two strong works after a short layoff.
