Daily Racing Form has served as the most trusted source of news and information about the sport since 1894, and moving forward we have decided to provide a free daily playbook – something that both hardcore horseplayers and casual observers can reference to get informed of each day’s action.

Track: Gulfstream (2nd Race)
Horse: GUYS TRIP (#12, 9-2)
GUYS TRIP is a DRF Best Bet (Scott Ehlers). | Get Past Performances for this race
Post Time: 2:05 ET
Track: Belmont at the Big A (3rd Race)
Horse: TORPEDO RUN (#3, 6-1)
TORPEDO RUN earned a 79 Beyer breaking his maiden over this track late last year; scored another victory in his second start back from a layoff this year, before trying to move up in class to no avail; good effort when dropped back down last time over a muddy track at Parx; tactical 6yo looks well-spotted as he cuts back to six making his return to NY. – Mike Beer | Get Past Performances for this race

Track: Gulfstream (7th Race)
Horse: PLAGNE CHAMPAGNE (#7, 6-1)
PLAGNE CHAMPAGNE switched to two turns and has since run back to back Beyer tops. Both with good odds at 4-1 and 6-1. Returning off the long layoff, connections opt for a sprint but that actually worked three back in a similar spot. Her distance Tomlinson of 388 actually favors this. Works are solid all for a very good barn in team Sisterson. – Scott Ehlers | Get Past Performances for this race
Post Time: 4:30 ET
Track: Woodbine (1st Race)
Horse: AUDAX MINOR (#2, 4-1)
AUDAX MINOR battled three-wide for the lead before putting away the other speed en route to a five-length maiden score when switching from turf to the Tapeta in his latest. He has a good chance to repeat in this non-two tilt in his third try off a claim. – Ron Gierkink | Get Past Performances for this race
Post Time: 5:15 ET
Track: Belmont at the Big A (9th Race)
Horse: HEATHGUARD (#6, 10-1)
HEATHGUARD kept good form through the winter at Tampa while trying to clear his available allowance condition; trips are important to him, but he comes into this fresh, with a top race that makes him competitive here, and this is a better level. – Mike Beer | Get Past Performances for this race
Post Time: 5:31 ET
Track: Los Alamitos Race Course (4th Race)
Horse: OUTRAGEOUS (#3, 8-1)
Runner-up for $16k claiming at DMR, OUTRAGEOUS runs back at the same level while returning to the LRC track where she ran the fastest race of her career in June by winning a low-level starter allowance. A pace-presser who can create her own trip, OUTRAGEOUS can win from slightly off the pace. – Brad Free | Get Past Performances for this race
Post Time: 5:33 ET
Track: Woodbine (3rd Race)
Horse: INDIANA ROAD (#9, 8-1)
INDIANA ROAD was only an early factor when sixth while returning from a sabbatical on the inner turf vs. $25K non-two stock Aug. 15. She's meeting easier $15K non-two rivals in this seven-furlong Tapeta sprint and could prevail with that tightener out of the way. – Ron Gierkink | Get Past Performances for this race
Post Time: 7:01 ET
Track: Woodbine (6th Race)
Horse: PEJA DU (#7, 8-1)
PEJA DU is a speedy inner turf specialist who could go all the way in his $25K claimer in his second try off a re-claim by Rombis, who did super with him last year with Alderson along for the ride. Lane 4 on the inner layout can be kind to speed. – Ron Gierkink | Get Past Performances for this race
