  • Puerto Rico Series - Horse Rated 98 Below Race 31 preview and analysis

    10/24/2021 23:30 31 Gulfstream DD 1m = 1600m Turf Firm Puerto Rico Series - Horse Rated 98 Below
    Purse 36,000, 2yo Colts and Fillies Wt colts 120lbs, fillies 118lbs, entry fee 5,000. Current race series purse 16,000

    1. STRIKE THE IRON(G) (DD-Whirlaway/DD-Guiding Strike (CA)) Life 1 0 0 0 480 Chrisman
    Horse Rating 97.25 Speed Rating 107.00 M/L 8-1
    He has only had 1 race in his career, it was at this distance and he ran a mediocre race at best. His works are pedestrian and I don't see him making waves in this series. Must pass tonight.

    2. BOLD CLAW(F) (Bold Reason/The Claw) Life 2 0 0 2 10080 Chrisman
    Horse Rating 96.50 Speed Rating 109.50 M/L 5-1
    She is a stalking type who has managed 2 3rd place finishes in her 2 lifetime races, one of which was at this distance. She looks like a one paced horse to me and where she breaks that is pretty much where she stays. I would like to see a little late movement form her but to date have not so I must pass.

    3. SHAM WOW(F) (DD-Sham/DD-Ouija Board) Life 2 0 2 0 14875 Winning420
    Horse Rating 97.50 Speed Rating 107.00 M/L 4-1
    Another in this race who should be up near the lead early on. Unlike some of the others she has shown that she will run on in the stretch and therfor she must be given some consideration tonight.

    4. I AM ON STRIKE(F) (DD-Point Given/DD-Guiding Strike (CA)) Life 3 1 1 0 22575 Star Of The Desert
    Horse Rating 94.75 Speed Rating 109.67 M/L 3-1
    She is one of only two horses in this race to have a win in her short career. Her last race was a real good one where she rallied from 4th in the stretch to just get up at the wire at 1 1/8 miles. Her previous race she tried for the lead at 7f but could not clear the field and ended up running 3 wide the entire race and fading out of the picture coming for home. She rates a decent chance here tonight off of her last race.

    5. 3 WIDE NO COVER(F) (Command And Charge/A Possible Steal) Life 2 1 0 1 19720 Unstable Stable
    Horse Rating 97.00 Speed Rating 111.50 M/L 2-1
    She is the other horse in the race who has found the winner's circle which she did in breaking her maiden at 7f last time out. She has run one race at 1 mile, a race where she broke 3rd by a neck and stayed in that position the whole race. She must be considered a player tonight off of her last winning effort.

    6. SUPER MELIA(C) (The Melia/Pegasus Supersonic) Life 1 0 0 0 0 Sweet Stables
    Horse Rating 97.50 Speed Rating 108.00 M/L 7-1
    He has only had one warm up race which he used to qualify for this series, as a lot of horses have done. He broke 3rd in that race and got out closed ending up 5th at 7f in a 5k maiden race. His workouts at this distance are not great but they would make him competitive with this field so he cannot be overlooked tonight.

    7. PRINCE OF PONCE(G) (Dance For Me/Mi Vida) Life 1 0 0 0 0 BC Racing
    Horse Rating 94.00 Speed Rating 107.00 M/L 6-1
    He, too, has only had one lifetime race. It was a 7f race in which he made up 4 lengths in the stretch but still only ran 6th in a 7 horse field. I did not watch the replay but there must have been a big jam up on the front end for him to close that hard but only pick up one horse in the stretch. Looking elsewhere tonight for the winner.

    8. PR HERE I COME(C) (Empire Time/My Lil Pumassa) Life 1 0 0 0 0 Winning420
    Horse Rating 97.50 Speed Rating 108.00 M/L 5-1
    He showed a little late speed in his only race to date a 7f maiden on the 18th. I don't feel I have enough information available to me to make an informed decision on this one so I will take a wait and see attitude.

    My selections: 4-5-3-6
