Friday July 26 Del Mar Picks

Hello fans:
Paddock Girl here:

The sun is refusing to show up at Del Mar. Yesterday it rained for a little bit (can't believe it rained in July)... but that won't scare all the fun things that there are going to happen today at the track.

If you here some "ROWRRR!!!" during the day, don't get scared, is just that today is COUGAR DAY! Today we'll find out who will it be Del Mar's Miss Cougar (a 40 year-old or older lady that is called like this because she likes to date younger guys).

There is also a race in her name: the Cougar II Handicap, which is the featured race of the day and that, as you can imagine, is very controversial for what it promotes.

The second concert of show of the Summer Concerts Series at Del Mar will be starting tonight just after the races. "Fitz and the Tamtrums'"will be playing at the Seaside Stage.

Here are your picks for this Friday:

Race 1: FLASHY DAME, WITH A MIRACLE... includeWARREN'S ASSASSIN in your 'fectas.

Race 2:  DISTINTIC PASSION, KOAST... include SIROCCO STRIKE in your 'fectas.
