Tag: KyD Live Long Shot

The Fanduel Meet at Kentucky Downs is underway, featuring some of the nation's largest purses and field sizes, and one of the most attractive wagering menus on the racing calendar. The Paulick Report's Longshot Look will help you get the most out of one of North America's premier turf meets.

For each card of the meet, J.D. Fox will single out a price play with his reasoning for what makes the horse worth a look when they might go overlooked.

On Monday's makeup card for Sunday's rained-out races, J.D. will focus on a horse in Race 1, a 6 1/2-furlong claiming race. His pick has some back class at Kentucky Downs that could come in handy during his return visit.

J.D.'s “Scratch Saver” pick comes in Race 4, a 1 5/16-mile allowance, where he'll have his eye on #10 Setna the Wise.

This is an easier spot than his previous start in an optional claiming race at Saratoga, where this horse finished second going 1 1/8 miles on the turf. Senta the Wise should benefit from extra distance, and has ran twice on Good rated courses and held his own.

Kentucky Downs' 2022 meet takes place Sept. 1, 3, 5, 8, 10, 11, and 14. First post each day is at 12:25 p.m. Central, except for the Saturday, Sept. 10 card, which features a special start time of 11:30 a.m. Central.

For each card of the seven-day meet, J.D. Fox will single out a price play with his reasoning for what makes the horse worth a look when they might go overlooked.

On Saturday's card, J.D. will spotlight a colt in Race 8, the one-mile Kentucky Downs Juvenile Turf Stakes, who showed a lot in his debut earlier this summer at Ellis Park, even if it wasn't a winning effort.

If his top pick doesn't make the gate, J.D.'s “Scratch Saver” pick comes in Race 9, a 6 1/2-furlong allowance optional claiming race, where he will focus on #4 Ride the Plan.

Ride the Plan posted back-to-back dominant victories going six furlongs on the dirt at Hawthorne Race Course and Colonial Downs heading into Saturday's race, where he tries turf for the first time. Dam Capital Plan was a multiple graded stakes winner on turf in California. He should sit right off the leaders, and at morning line odds of 12-1, he could provide plenty of value in what figures to be a full field.

The Fanduel Meet at Kentucky Downs kicks off Thursday, Sept. 1., featuring some of the nation's largest purses and field sizes, and one of the most attractive wagering menus on the racing calendar. The Paulick Report is back with another season of Longshot Look to help you get the most out of one of North America's premier turf meets.

For each card of the seven-day meet, J.D. Fox will single out a price play with his reasoning for what makes the horse worth a look when they might go overlooked.

On Thursday's opening day card, Fox has his eye on a runner in Race 5, a 6 1/2-furlong allowance optional claiming race. J.D.'s pick returns to Kentucky Downs after a solid effort at the track in 2021, and at morning line odds of 12-1, his pick could reward backers nicely with a slight improvement in form.

In the event of inclement weather around Franklin, Ky., we've introduced J.D.'s “Scratch Saver” pick to increase the chances of the host helping you find a winner, whether they're a longshot or not.

Thursday's Scratch Saver comes in Race 9, the 1 mile and 70 yard Tapit Stakes. #3 Like the King hasn't won since last year's Grade 3 Jeff Ruby Steaks at Turfway Park, and fans might recognize him from the field of the 2021 Kentucky Derby. Like the King has been close in the past, and the only speed in Thursday's field has drawn inside. He should be close to the lead, and could get back on the winning track, and at 15-1 on the morning line, he could be another strong price play.

Kentucky Downs' 2022 meet takes place Sept. 1, 3, 4, 8, 10, 11, and 14. First post each day is at 12:25 p.m. Central, except for the Saturday, Sept. 10 card, which features a special start time of 11:30 a.m. Central.
