Latest Ajax Downs Free Picks
Ajax Downs is not racing today. Below are the free picks from the last Ajax Downs card, September 9, 2026.
Race 1
Maiden · 250 yd · Dirt
A wide-open maiden sprint at 250 yards where experience is essentially zero across the board — TrackWiz ratings separate the contenders in what could be a chaotic first-time-out scramble.
Fly Fishn draws the rail and carries a TrackWiz rating of 89.12 — a significant edge over the rest of this maiden field. Cristian Benitez gets the call, and landing the top-rated horse in a short sprint is exactly the kind of edge you want when past performances are non-existent. The morning line of 8/5 reflects market confidence, and our numbers back it up — this one is the clear standout on paper.
Louie B Gone posts a rating of 67.52 and opens at 2/1, giving trainer Bob Broadstock a second runner in the race alongside Jedi Master. In a maiden sprint where first-jump explosiveness is everything, Ramiro Sanchez Castillo's experience in the gate could be the difference-maker for a horse that's capable of running into a placing spot.
Caraways Rushin Risk at 9/2 is the third-best rated horse in the field at 66.70 and represents a sneaky exotics piece. Wayne Procter also saddles the #2 Caraways Magic Rain, giving the barn two chances to fire — if either finds the gate well, Rushin Risk at a price could land underneath in a trifecta.
Race 2
Speed Index Race · 250 yd · Dirt
Fishin for Coronas looks like a class standout in this Speed Index Race, but Sweet Kara gets the morning-line favoritism — a minor disagreement between the program and our numbers that creates some interesting betting angles.
Fishin for Coronas owns a 37% career win rate — by far the best in this field — and backs it up with a TrackWiz rating of 88.54 that tops the card. Trainer James Bogar puts Ismael Eluid Mosqueira up, a jockey who knows how to place a horse in a short 250-yard burst. At 2/1 on the morning line, the price is fair for a horse whose career numbers scream elite-level consistency at this level.
Sweet Kara is the public's choice at 8/5 with Cristian Benitez aboard, and while our rating (70.93) puts her behind Fishin for Coronas, she's a legit threat for a placing spot with a 17% career win rate and trainer Jason Pascoe's steady hand behind her. In a five-horse sprint, getting a horse with Benitez in the irons to run second or third is never a bad investment in the exacta.
Game Favorite checks in at 5/2 on the morning line with a 25% career win rate — the second-best winning percentage in this field. Brian Bell has been active on this card, and trainer Ruth Barbour's runner could easily outrun her odds if the two top picks engage each other and leave the door open for a hard-running third.
Race 3
Maiden Claiming · 300 yd · Dirt
The maiden claimer at 300 yards features a clear top rating from Goodlookingperry, but the odds board tells a different story with Mi Reina Janette installed as the morning-line favorite — making this a race where our numbers diverge from the public in an interesting way.
Goodlookingperry is our top selection despite going off at 2/1 rather than the shortest price — that's a mild overlay on the highest-rated horse in the field at 88.54. Trainer Joe Tavares puts Brian Bell up, and with the extra 50 yards compared to the earlier races on the card, there's slightly more room for a horse's natural ability to assert itself. Trust the number here.
Rushn Valentine at 5/2 has a TrackWiz rating of 71.79 — the second-best in the field — and Max Badal gets the mount for trainer Paul Garrison. In a maiden claimer, the top two rated runners most often fill the top two slots, and Rushn Valentine's profile fits neatly as a horse who can run into the exacta at a workable price.
Mi Reina Janette is the crowd's choice at 8/5, and while our model doesn't love her as the top selection, a rating of 70.79 keeps her firmly in the conversation for third. Trainer Jennelle McMahon sends Ismael Eluid Mosqueira out on a horse that clearly has public support — in a maiden field, fade her to win but don't ignore her in trifecta slots.
