Sunday July 21 Del Mar Picks

Hello racing fans:
Paddock Girl here:

   Well, the cloudy weather of Del Mar finally was a good reflection of how we did yesterday with our bets. After doing very well the last days, yesterday it was rusty. I mean, don't get me wrong, we won a couple of races and exactas, but no more. Still, the show must go on right... so let's go to make some money and have fun!
 
    My pick of the rady for "Del Mar Direct" (radio show), which was UNUSUAL HOTTIE (5) on race 5 (Osunitas Stakes), finished second after leading the race until before the finish line. However, JERANIMO did deliver (Race 8: Eddie Read Stakes).  An "easy" win on the Eddie Ready Stakes by jockey Rafael Bejarano, so far the leader of the meet.

    Also, I've been told that some Diamond Club subscribers (the Del Mar fans card), received a mystery voucher that could be cashed only yesterday to get $5 for free.

   Today there are 9 races, including the featured California Dreamin' and the San Clemente Handicap. The fist one has SUMMER HIT as a favorite, while in the second one IOTOPA has the honors.

    Remember that today is Jockey Photo Day! Usually it was held on Labor Day, but this year things got changed, but it will be located on its usual spot, Plaza de Mexico. That means that if you're going to the track, you should bring your camera to get a picture with your favorite athletes! It has been going for 20 years, and is a popular event among fans; usually there's a long line, so get there early.

    Also, at the end of the day, there will be a "Race Ready Paddock Sale"... if you;re looking for a horse, bring your money!
