Title: Woodward Stakes
Post by: prist on October 01, 2021, 08:35:12 PM
Anyone see any value in here? Can it come from the favorite? Another -2 from MAXFIELD and he\'s going to be tough to beat. I think he\'s worth 6/5 in here.

ART COLLECTOR could be interesting off that 1/2 point forward move last time out. I\'m interested at 5/2, but I\'m concerned he has too much to do. He needs to improve approximately 3 lengths if the favorite runs his race.

The morning line for Art Collector is 3/1. At that price, he is, in my opinion, worth keying. Unless Forza De Oro runs his best the winner is gonna need to get by Art Collector in the stretch and that will be too late. I expect Art Collector to be in the exacta and he\'s never run second in his life.

Maxfield is like my Cousin DB a Star football player Univ Michigan Law beautiful wife and children. Senior Partner Big Firm Big City. He just does everything right and always has. But the value is in not using him in the exacta IMHO.

There are two candidates for that role.... a) The #1 Trainer (TAP), #1 Jockey (Irad O), the #1 Post (Dr. Post) b) The aforementioned Forza De Oro who could be in the lead as they hit the stretch. Note - this colt has only raced seven times in his career I will use him 1st & 2nd.

Good Luck
