PLAYING THE PONIES

Sam Houston Race Park selections for Saturday, March 7

Coady Photography

Here are my selections for Saturday night at Sam Houston Race Park. These are not meant to be in exact order, but merely the four horses I think have the best chance to win. For beginners, I suggest exacta boxes with three horses, using two of mine and one of your own. And you can always pick up a copy of Acing Racing 2016 to learn everything you need to know. (These are the picks and format that are available on the free tip sheet at SHRP).

FIRST
7-2-4-5
HIGH SPIRITS is in sharp form and could take this


SECOND

1-2-7-6
RB RICH LYKE ME rates a slim edge in a very talented group


THIRD
2-7-8-6
CYPRESS POINT stretches out off a strong effort and will be tough to catch


FOURTH
4-1-7-3
STALEMATE has not shown a lot but class drop should help


FIFTH
1-10-7-3
BRAZOS ANGEL was in tough in last; slim edge in wide open affair

SIXTH
2-4-1-6
SILVER CITY TRICK freaked in meet debut; could roll again


SEVENTH
7-6-2-1
DANCE KINGDOM drops in class and stretches out; worth a look


EIGHTH
1-3-5-7
GRADE ONE has a pair of sharp starts this meet and should be in the mix

ADDED ATTRACTION has been in top form this meet


TENTH
