THE PLAY: 1,4,9,12 Exacta Box ($12)
Saratoga & Del Mar Full Card Selections Get 30 calendar days of full card selections for both Saratoga & Del Mar for just $99!
#4 Genius Jimmy at odds of 7/2 is the lukewarm favorite and could have things his own way on the front end, but this will be only his 2nd start on the Del Mar turf course and he may just be sharper at a mile distance.
#12 Requist at 6-1 could get first run at the favorite with a stalking position from the outside and the #1 horse City Exile at 8-1 should also be forwardly placed while saving ground from the rail.
#9 Cathal at 8-1 is running as a first time gelding today and should launch from the back of the pack while making one run.
I am not sold on the favorite liking this distance, especially breaking from the chute on the turf course at Del Mar and will use 3 other horses in an exacta box at prices.

Consultant Bio
Working at a country club a mile east of Del Mar Racetrack, Sean was introduced to horse racing and his passion for the sport took off. The puzzle of going through past performances and replays appealed to Sean and spent his time after work listening to respected handicappers to learn as much as he could. In his first season playing the NHC Tour, he qualified for the Championship by placing 2nd in the LRF Cares contest after turning his initial $250 bankroll into $3,640.40. In this year's Xpressbet Kentucky Derby contest, Sean finished 6th by flipping the $2,000 bankroll into $15,681.85 while also taking home a 2024 Pegasus World Cup Betting Challenge entry valued at $6,000.
