The focus of Bob Selvin's analysis on a Saturday card that had only 27 horses in the first five races was his two back-to-back Best Plays in the (7th) and (8th). Keying (7th) Cape Truth, the longest shot the field by far, Selvin suggested two simple trifecta tickets. Even though Cape Truth ran second, users got a $529.00 trifecta payoff on the $120 investment. Coming right back in the featured La Puente Stakes, Selvin's co-top choices ran one-two with Dream Nettie, 5/1 on his fair odds line, returning $20.00. And co-top Lucky Rave finished a fast closing second to give users a whopping $136.80 exacta payoff. Click How We Did in Recent Past Day for details.
