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.
1:22 GP 2nd TIMBER (#5, 4-1) has 3 nice 2nds in her 3 synthetic tries, which all came on this track at this trip at about this level. She worked smartly since and might be ready to break through and get her diploma. Four of her 6 sibs are winners including Olympic Runner (41-6-9-4, $597K, 2 SWs including 1 G2, 6 SPs including 2 G2s, 3 G3s). – Michael Hammersly
7:35 TUP 7th AUSTIN CITY GIRL (#1, 5-1) stalked before giving way to end up last of 7 here Jan. 8. However, that came for more than twice this tag. It was also her first start for Diodoro off the claim. Diodoro opted to give her some time afterward to regroup and brings her back with a significant drop. Some sharp works the past month or so say she's doing well. – Michael Hammersly
8:07 TUP 8th SIZE LORD (#8, 5-1) set a brisk pace before tiring late to end up 4th. Not only did that come vs. more expensive it came going longer so today's drop and distance cutback might be just the Dr. ordered. He also goes first time off the claim for Silva who has super off-the-claim numbers. – Michael Hammersly
