Beat Ray At Del Mar: Will New Challenger ‘Peak’ At Right Time?

XBTV's Zoe Cadman joins host Michelle Yu and Ray Paulick as guest handicapper for the final weekend of the Beat Ray Everyday Beach Boss competition at Del Mar, a free-to-play online contest that gives each player a mythical $100 to wager in win, place and show bets on selected races.

The contest, which takes place each racing day of the Bing Crosby Season, awards the player with the highest mythical bankroll at the end of the meet with two VIP tickets, hotel and a travel stipend to visit the Del Mar summer season. (More information here.)

While Paulick is drowning in bad picks, Cadman comes on strong with her selection of Irish-bred Cathkin Peak in the Grade 1 Hollywood Derby, citing trouble at the start of his last race in the G2 Twilight Derby and a jockey switch to Flavien Prat.

Paulick goes with Beyond Brilliant, a horse that was outrun down the stretch by Cathkin Peak last out. Yu, whose insights have been on target for much of the meet, cautions both players not to overlook Camp Hope, the Kenny McPeek-trained Midwest invader coming off two successive wins at Keeneland.

Watch the season finale of Beach Boss below.

Beat Ray At Del Mar: Doug O’Neill Dives Into Beach Boss Waters

While I've been struggling to get out of a prolonged slump, the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club has brought someone to this week's Beach Boss online competition who has more than a little knowledge when it comes to handicapping: two-time Kentucky Derby-winning trainer Doug O'Neill.

O'Neill joins Michelle Yu and me to make picks and analyze Saturday's Grade 3 Native Diver Stakes at Del Mar, one of two Beach Boss contest races in a free-to-play competition that takes place every day during the Bing Crosby season at the seaside track. While he doesn't have a starter in this year's Native Diver – a race he's won twice – O'Neill has some insights on one of the participants who shipped into his barn from the East Coast.

O'Neill also provides an update on how Grade 1 winner Hot Rod Charlie came out of his fourth-place finish in the Breeders' Cup Classic and when we might next see this son of Oxbow.

Watch the video below to find out who O'Neill, Yu and I like in the Native Diver.
