Horse Selections

DEL MAR Race #4 at 7:30 PM Eastern

Top pick: #7 (TWEEBSTER) - $300,000 son of "Tapit" raced evenly in his debut sprinting on August 1. The Baffert barn sends him to the turf and around two-turns in start No. 2. Colt has a pair of sharp drills since and he's the horse to beat in a talented looking field.
2nd pick: #5 (Alfarabi) - Colt has raced well in both his starts and his sire ("Yes It's True") gets some good grass runners. Trainer Eoin Harty moves him to the turf and Gomez climbs aboard. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Wings Of Sound) - Like the top pair, he's run well in his starts on the "Poly" and moves to the grass. He's by "Vindication" and many of his runners can turf. Player.
4th pick: #2 (Exploration) - Nicely-bred colt ("Seeking the Gold") is working sharp and his trainer (Richard Mandella) has been hot at this meet (21-6-2-3). Presence of jockey Nakatani is duly noted.

Oakland Athletics vs. LAA Angels

LAA Angels -147

The Oakland A's have not done much on the road all season, and right now a bad offense is struggling as much as they have all season. The A's have scored three runs or less in 11 of their last 12 games. They are facing a team that is averaging close to six runs a game on the season that is not going to be an easy task, especially for a team that is just 16-43 in their last 59 on the road against a team with a winning record on the season. The A's inconsistency has also shown them to be in a difficult position after a win, where they are just 9-21 in their last 30 off a win. The Angels are 46-22 in their last 68, and 24-9 against a team with a losing record. Those are some tough numbers, so I'm going with the Angels in this one.
