Welcome back everyone, and today we are going to head north on Interstate 95 to Aqueduct Race Track for Thursday’s seventh race, which is the running of the Bay Ridge Stakes which is a race for New York bred fillies and mares going a one-turn mile over what will be a sloppy race track
Merry Christmas everyone, and welcome back to Quills Picks Winners, as we celebrate the holiday that is Santa Anita’s opening day. There’s 11 races on tap for the traditional opener, and I’ll take a look at a few of the races here.
the Christmas Eve program at Gulfstream Park which runs as the sixth race of a ten race program that starts at 12:10 pm ET. The Jerkins Handicap is an estimated 2:36 pm ET post, so hopefully won’t take away too much from some Christmas Eve football action
Saturday 12/23/23 – Gulfstream Park Race 10
Another Quills Picks Winners article, and another race to look at here as we will look at the Mr. Prospector Stakes, a Grade 3 race
We’re staying at Gulfstream Park for the Friday edition of Quills Picks Winners as we dissect race 7, which is a one-mile test for horses three-year-olds and up with an optional claiming tag of $62,500. There are eight horses entered for this race that has a projected post time of 3:06 pm Eastern Time
Let’s head down I-75 and go through Alligator Alley as we spend some time at Gulfstream Park. This is an early race on the card, so this will be a bit of a curveball for all the readers here. Post time is set for 12:39 pm ET, so be ready to go once you see this
Today, we will stay in the western part of Florida and take in the eighth race at Tampa Bay Downs, and this will be a great one for everyone to handicap as this is a race for maiden two-year-olds going six-and-one-half furlongs on the main track.
The final race of the day and the brief December thoroughbred meet at Los Alamitos is the King Glorious Stakes for California breds going one mile on the dirt. Eight horses are entered for the 12th and final race of the day with an estimated post time of 7:27 pm Eastern Time.
Let’s switch things up a bit today. Let’s go with two races here as we will take our Saturday trip out west to Southern California, but before that, let’s make a pit stop to Gulfstream Park in Hallendale Beach, FL as the Allen Jerkins Handicap, where the horses will be going two miles on the turf with an approximate post of 5:02 pm ET.
