Mr. Money Man is back tonight. Coady Photography
Here are my selections for Wednesday 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
7-2-5-6
QUINN ELLA drops back in for a tag and fits well here
SECOND
7-1-3-2
WILD AND GOLDEN drops in class and ran well at this level two back
THIRD
9-7-1-4
MOHAWK might enjoy the turn back in distance
FOURTH

TOASTING MASTER drops in class and should be in the mix
FIFTH

SEVENTH

The latest update from Astros GM Dana Brown on the club's flagship station did not ease anyone's concerns this week. Brown said he was optimistic that Kyle Tucker would be back before September. September?
Which made us wonder what type of injury Tucker is really dealing with? A bone bruise doesn't typically take this long to heal.
Be sure to watch the video above as ESPN Houston's Joel Blank and Barry Laminack share their thoughts on Tucker's health, the Astros' secrecy when it comes to injuries, and much more!
