Saturday July 27 Del Mar Picks

Good morning my dear racing fans,
Paddock Girl here:


   Another busy Saturday! I think I'm getting used to this already... Hope you liked my little segment at XX Sports AM 1090 (http://xsportsradio.com), during the "Del Mar Direct" radio show, where Toby Turrell host it from 9 to 10 am (12-1pm ET).

   RICHARD'S KID, wow! He definitely loves this track. Once again he delivered like a champ. This 8-year old horse is looking better with age. Congratulations to all his connections.

    Today will be an all-day long party at the track, here is why:

    * Yesterday it was concert night with "Fitz and the Tantrum" (yes, the pink heart from their new album was all around) and tonight is concert night again! As you know, usually the "Del Mar Concert Series" is on FRidays, but there are also a couple of Satuday and Sunday concerts, and this one is the first of this season! Tonight, get ready for some rock because "Sammy and The Wabos" will be playing at the Seaside Stage, starting at 6:30 pm.

    * Also, this Saturday is Beer Fest! Over a 100  craft beers will available, including more than 40 top-rated San Diego beers. For $17 you can purchase 5 7oz. tastings... and if you get hungry, there will be a couple of food trucks there!

   * Last, but not least, the reason why we love this track: races!!!

    Today there are 10 races, including the Fleet Treat Stakes and the San Diego Handicap. On both races, the field is small, with only 6 horses each. The morning leaders are DOINGHARDTIMEAGAIN for the Fleet Treat S. and the sentimental favorite PAYNTER for the SD Handicap.
