Horse Bet of the Day – Cash a Nice Horse Bet on Race 7 at Hollywood Park

Hollywood Park resumes their Friday night racing with a full 8 Race card on June 11th.

The best horse racing bet appears to be in the 7th where 3-year olds will be running on the lawn in an $80,000 Allowance Optional Claimer.

The favorite on the morning line is Hockley at 3 to 1. Hockley looks good in the race, but he shouldn’t go off at that morning line because there is a lot of talent in this.

I’m going to try and bust a nice price horse as my Horse Bet of the Day.

Horse Bet of the Day Where: Hollywood Park – Race 7 When: June 11th, 2010 at 12:53 am EST (9:53 pm PST) TV: TVG Optional Claiming $80,000n$y For Three Year Olds 1 1/8 miles over turf 5-Tiz A Knight – - 8/1 morning line horse betting odds This Ron Ellis trainee goes first time on the turf.

He should absolutely love the surface as he was sired by Tiznow and is out of a Jeblar mare. Trainer Ron Ellis is winning at a 25% clip at this meet and Tiz A Knight has shown speed over the plastic in his last three races. There is other speed in this race, but Tiz A Knigh can either stalk or take the lead depending on if anybody else wants it.

The key for the $300,00 dollar buy is the fact that he’s making a surface switch as he’s packed it in before hitting the finish line in his last couple of races.

Maybe, the speed-favoring turf at Hollywood Park is just what he needs in order to last. 3-Boulder Creek – - 7/2 morning line horse betting odds Boulder Creek finished 4th in his last race at this level, behind Fantastic Pick who is also in this race, but should improve off of that effort in this.

He’s bred to relish the 1 1/8th mile distance and he’s already got a second and a third out of 3 lifetime races over the grass. Bolulder Creek, no doubt, will be much tougher second time with Rafael Bejarano on his back. Bejarano can either go for the lead or lie behind a speed duel if one emerges.

Either way, this son of Tapit looks very tough indeed in this Friday night affair. 2-Fantastic Pick – - 5/1 morning line horse betting odds Fantastic Pick’s 3rd place finish to Bogie and Lucky Rave was ultra-impressive. Bogie or Lucky Rave would be the favorite in this race if either had entered.

Fantastic Pick deserves consideration for the win slot, but, unfortunately, the lawn at Hollywood Park has been favoring speed and Fantastic Pick is more of a presser type. He’ll make a move, but he might not make it in time to get to Boulder Creek or Tiz A Knight.

Horse Wagering Strategy I’m going to bet on Tiz A Knight to win and place. I will bet an exacta with Tiz A Knight over Fantastic Pick and Boulder Creek. I will reverse for less. I will bet a trifecta with Tiz A Knight in the first slot over a box made up of Fantastic Pick, Boulder Creek, and likely favorite Hockley, over ALL.

I will bet another trifecta with Fantastic Pick, Boulder Creek and Hockley in the first slot, over Tiz A Knight, over ALL. Finally, I will play a daily double with Tiz A Knight, Fantastic Pick, Hockley and Boulder Creek in Race 7 over 10-The Skinny Man in Race 8. Good luck!
