TOP PICK # 2 PHILLY FRENZY 7/5 This homebred from high profile owner/breeder Barry Schwartz showed steady improvement all winter, and after he broke his maiden second time out he hit the board in three straight allowances, bringing home good purses each time. He seemed to regress Feb 10 without an obvious excuse, which gives Schwartz a reason to drop him in class to face claimers for the first time. Even if he’s going off form, Philly Frenzy looks good enough to handle this crew, and he won his only start on a wet track. Being a gelding with limited potential, Schwartz has no reason to ‘protect’ him in allowance races.

HORSES FOR EXACTA OR TRIFECTA WAGERING 3- FLIP A COIN 8/1 Moves up if the track is wet and would become the main threat, based on his 11-length romp on Feb 3 when catching a wet track for the first time. He probably came back too soon and ‘bounced’ Feb 10.

8- COMMANDER MATT 7/2 Late runner drops in class after rallying from far back in last to finish 3rd Feb 2. He’s hit the board in 6 of 7 starts on dirt and switches to Dominguez, who elects to ride here over Prime Diamond.

6- DIDTHETEST 8/1 Won his only prior start on a wet track. Showed improved early speed last out with blinkers on.
