Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms.

Of note the Mandatory Payout of the Rainbow 6 has been moved up to May 26th. Mark that in your calendar. I would expect over 12 million up for grabs that day.

Taking a shot today on a very playable, but an expected chalking sequence at Gulfstream

Gulfstream Race#3 Post time 2:27pm eastern

Race#3 A repeat effort on the 3 makes her a winner. Slight concern on the bounce after such a big effort. The only other one I would use is the 7, which has the signs to improve.

Race#4 A very competitive field with only seven runners. The 2 has become a bit of a freak crushing the field with an incredible effort. The 7 is my sleeper that has the class, the work, the figures to set him up. Do not leave out the 3. I think 2,3,7 gets you the leg

Race#5 A not so talented field. The 7 has inflated beyer numbers but is competitive  and can win. I expect an underlay in the win price. The 1 has the sneaky early pace that could steal it.

Race#6 The key to the 6 horse is going only five furlongs. A repeat effort two back can make him the winner. Others to consider would be the 1,4,7. Playing a small ticket, I would key the 6

Race#7 This race is tricky because there is talent but not really any game horse, may like to finish second or third to often. To narrow it down I would take 3,4,5 but may even hit the all button.

Race#8 The 1 had a nice effort last out and will be the favorite, can she be trusted, not so sure. The 7 is on the improve, has a nice work after a sharp trainer. A few is certainly needed

Here is a small ticket I am playing: 3,7/2,3,7/1,7/6/3,4,5/1,3,4,7     cost $28.80
