Horse Racing Betting – Night Spirit as Top Pick
Racing returns to the Jersey Shore on Friday afternoon, with Monmouth Park offering up a dozen races, with a later post time, the first race kicking off at 2:10 ET.
The heat on the east coast will subside a few degrees this afternoon, with temperatures in the high 80’s at Belmont Park and Monmouth Park.
Belmont Park gets underway first today, and our play of the day comes later in the card, the seventh race, which is a $40,000 claiming race.
Our top pick is Night Spirit who steps into a tougher spot while retuning to the turf for the first time since last summer.
Her last turf try came at Colonial Downs where she was a well beaten ninth, but she has the turf pedigree to handle the surface, and she looks much sharper now than she did last summer.
The late Pick 3 starts with the tenth race at Monmouth Park, a three race sequence that includes three longshots.
It appears we can beat all three of the likely favorites, and the final leg of the wager leaves us four deep with a pair of runners that could go off at double-digit odds, which should give us a good shot of padding our bankroll with just a $24 investment.
Today’s Play of the Day from Belmont Park:
BEL Race 7 Clm $40,000B (4:12 ET)
#2 Night Spirit 7/2
#3 Spiritual Tune 9/2
#4 Hey Babe 5/2
#1 Little Miss Macho 6/1
Analysis: #2 Night Spirit rolled over $25K non-winners of two last out in a race taken off the turf in her first go off a nine-month layoff.
