Latest Woodbine Free Picks

Woodbine is not racing today. Below are the free picks from the last Woodbine card, September 13, 2026.

Race 1

Claiming · 6 fur · Dirt

Two horses dominate the TrackWiz ratings in this 6-furlong dirt claiming opener, leaving the rest of the field fighting for scraps — but the morning line favorite sits a step below our top-rated pair.

win2Switchin' to GlideML 5/2

Switchin' to Glide tops our ratings at 87.81 and draws the morning line at 5/2, which feels about right for a horse that profiles as the class of this field. Trainer Robert P. Tiller puts Romero Ramsay Maragh in the irons — a rider who knows how to get position in early-pace scenarios on the Woodbine dirt. The 8% career win rate is modest, but the rating gap between this horse and the rest of the field is hard to ignore in a claiming sprint.

place6Good to Be LuckyML 2/1

Good to Be Lucky (6) rates just a hair below Switchin' to Glide at 86.05 and actually carries the shortest morning line in the race at 2/1, suggesting the public is sweet on this one. With a 12% career win percentage — solid for a claiming runner — and the same average speed figure as our top pick, this is the most logical place to key against. If the two top-rated horses run their race, they should finish 1-2 in some order.

show4Halcon NegroML 6/1

Halcon Negro at 6/1 on the morning line is our show selection, offering some value compared to the chalk. The TrackWiz rating of 67.28 puts this George Billers trainee a healthy notch above Screen Scene and Maynard's Song, and Jeffrey Ian Alderson has quietly been a reliable pilot at this level. In a field where the top two dominate the ratings, Halcon Negro is your best bet to land in the third spot and give exotics some life.

Race 2

Claiming · 1 1/16 mi · Turf

The turf router at 1 1/16 miles features a clear top two on the ratings sheet, but Delta Force's strong career win percentage throws a wrench into any easy exacta boxes.

win1AccelerandoML 5/2

Accelerando (1) shares the field's highest TrackWiz rating at 87.81 and draws 5/2 on the morning line — a fair number for the top-rated horse. Trainer William Tharrenos hands the call to Ryan Munger, and the 13% career win rate is respectable for a turf route. With the same average speed figure as several rivals but a rating that stands alone at the top, Accelerando is the most defensible win selection in this field.

place5ThundermakerML 2/1

Thundermaker (5) rates second in the field at 80.43 and is actually the morning line favorite at 2/1, meaning the public is highest on this Kevin Attard-trained runner. A 25% career win rate is genuinely strong — that's a horse that converts when it fires — and Pietro Moran aboard gives it a capable pilot around two turns. If Accelerando falters, Thundermaker is the most likely beneficiary.

show2Delta ForceML 3/1

Delta Force (2) is the interesting piece here — a 33% career win rate is the best in the field by a wide margin, and trainer Donald C. MacRae is no stranger to competitive turf routes at Woodbine. The TrackWiz rating of 69.52 sits third, and the 3/1 morning line reflects genuine public respect. In a race where the top two ratings are clustered tightly, Delta Force's conversion rate makes it a strong show anchor.

Race 3

Maiden Special Weight · 7 fur · Turf

A wide-open maiden special weight on the turf at 7 furlongs — everyone in this field is still looking for their first win, and the ratings are bunched close enough that the outcome could come down to post position and pace setup.

win3Epic AffairML 5/2

Epic Affair (3) earns our top rating at 57.50 and carries the best average speed figure in the field at 57 — that's a meaningful edge in a maiden race where raw ability matters most. Ryan Munger gets the call for trainer Gail Cox, who also has Classic Lines in the race and clearly fancies her turf maidens today. The 5/2 morning line keeps this from being a value play, but the combination of top speed figure and top rating makes it the most logical win selection.

place1KlassenML 3/1

Klassen (1) sits just behind Epic Affair in our ratings at 56.67 and checks in at 3/1 on the morning line. Kevin Attard is a top Woodbine conditioner, and Luis R. Reyes has the rail — a potentially useful asset in a turf sprint where inside position can save ground. Klassen matches Epic Affair on the speed figure average but trails slightly in the overall rating, making it the natural place selection.

show2Classic LinesML 4/1

Classic Lines (2) rounds out the top three at a rating of 55.0, and with the same average speed figure as Klassen, this is a tight call for third. Trainer Gail Cox running two horses in the same race often signals genuine confidence, and Classic Lines gets Pietro Moran for a spot bet. At 4/1 morning line odds, there's a bit of overlay value if you're building maiden turf exotics.
