Albuquerque Picks & Predictions — August 7, 2026

Miss American sits just behind at 83.65 on our TrackWiz scale and draws the 3/1 morning-line favorite tab — meaning the public likes her even as we prefer Sttealth at slightly better odds. Trainer Jason L. Olmstead taps Francisco Raul Ramirez, Jr., and the combination of a proven yard and a near-elite rating makes this runner a near-lock for the top two. A strong place play if you're looking to structure exacta coverage around the top-rated horse.

Leaving London comes in at 55.83 on the TrackWiz scale — a meaningful step below the top two but well clear of the rest of the field — and draws Sergio Becerra, Jr. aboard for trainer Omar Vargas. The 7/2 morning line puts this runner firmly in the upper tier of market perception, and the gap to the fourth horse in the ratings makes Leaving London the logical show pick to cap trifecta tickets. Don't overlook this runner if the favorites get into trouble early.

Bandido 123 rates at 71.79 on our TrackWiz scale — second-best in the race — and carries a 33% career win percentage that shows consistent competitiveness. Trainer Omar Vargas hands the mount to Jose Enrique Ortiz, and at 9/2 on the morning line there's genuine value for a horse with both a credible rating and a win history. Use this runner as the primary place leg in exactas under Liionesss.

Valiant Sass enters with a 61.3 TrackWiz rating and a 25% career win percentage — modest but real — and is trained by Dee Keener with Roman Cruz up at 6/1 on the morning line. That 25% win rate means this horse has shown ability to compete when the conditions are right, and the price gives you enough overlay to justify including this runner on the show end of trifectas. A useful hedge in a race with a clear top choice and some uncertainty underneath.

Monday Dynasty comes in at 79.16 on our TrackWiz scale with a 75% career win rate — genuinely elite productivity at this level — and draws Edwin G. Escobedo for trainer James J. Gonzales II at 3/1. The public is making this the morning-line favorite, and it's hard to argue given the win percentage. Whether it beats Pyc Dollars Cowboy or not, finishing in the top two is well within range for a horse who wins three out of four starts.

Konklusiv is the value angle of this race — a 75% career win rate that matches Monday Dynasty, paired with a 76.41 TrackWiz rating that ranks third in the field — all at a 6/1 morning line that looks underpriced. Trainer Juan L. Vazquez sends out James A. Flores, and there's an argument that on win-rate grounds alone this runner deserves shorter odds. Include Konklusiv in trifectas as the show leg; the production history suggests this horse won't run last.

Flying Jameson rates at 67.19 on our TrackWiz scale and shapes up as the most credible second horse despite a zero career win percentage — the rating tells the story more than the record here. Trainer Justin W. Joiner sends out Jesus Rios Ayala, and the 9/2 morning line reflects the fact that the market sees this runner as a legitimate contender for a qualifying spot. Use Flying Jameson in exactas under the top selection.

Cartel Cowgirl 123 brings a 50% career win percentage — best of any runner in this field — and a 56.67 TrackWiz rating that puts this horse solidly in the mix for the show spot. Trainer James J. Gonzales II partners with Joseph Belloc, Jr., and the 3/1 morning line shows the market is pricing in that win history. For a race where the win spot looks settled, Cartel Cowgirl 123 offers the best proven-results case among the supporting cast.

Jet Two Is Armed sits just a fraction behind at 86.35 on our TrackWiz scale with a 100% career win rate — a horse that has never lost when it's competed. Trainer John A. Stinebaugh puts Gilberto Linares aboard, and the 7/2 morning line is actually reasonable for a horse that's unbeaten in its career. If anything beats Ask Her to Fly today, it's this runner — and a place finish from an undefeated horse is as close to a certainty as you'll find in quarter-horse trials.

Restart checks in at 66.14 on our TrackWiz ratings — a meaningful step below the top two but a clear tier above the rest of this field — and draws Jose Enrique Ortiz for trainer Omar Vargas at 8/1. That price is worth a look for a show ticket in a race where the top two horses absorb most of the win probability. Restart's rating is the third-highest by nearly 12 points, making this the logical cap for trifecta plays.

Aj Invictus Player scores a 72.74 on our TrackWiz scale and draws the 3/1 morning-line position with Jacob Enriquez up for trainer Clinton Crawford. The Crawford-Enriquez combination has multiple entries tonight, suggesting a barn that's firing on all cylinders, and this horse's rating gives it a clear claim to the second spot in the field. Use in exactas under Jess Maggie for a disciplined ticket.

Sixes Candy comes in at 72.27 on the TrackWiz scale — virtually tied with Aj Invictus Player at the top of the supporting cast — and carries a 25% career win rate with Francisco Zamora aboard at 6/1. Trainer Justino Tarin Saenz sends out a horse that has shown ability to win at this level, and the 6/1 price on a horse this close to the second pick in our ratings makes this a genuine value show play. Include Sixes Candy in trifectas to take advantage of what looks like a slight overlay.

Tymetogojoe rates at 75.29 on our TrackWiz scale and brings a 75% career win rate — the most productive win record in this field — with Ramiro Haro Garcia up for trainer Jason L. Olmstead. The 7/2 morning line is accurate for a horse whose win history is elite; three of every four starts have ended in victory, which is remarkable productivity in quarter-horse competition. This is the most natural place selection on the card — proven winner, strong rating, solid connections.

Rings of Power slots third in our TrackWiz ratings at 73.89 and carries a 33% career win percentage — making this runner one of the best-credentialed middle selections of the night. Trainer Wesley T. Giles gives the mount to Noe Garcia, Jr., and the 8/1 morning line is a legitimate overlay for a horse whose rating and win rate both justify shorter odds. Rings of Power is the kind of show-play value that makes trifectas profitable when everything falls into place.

Tell a Scout comes in with a 60% career win rate — the second-highest mark in this field — and an 81.24 TrackWiz rating that slots in solidly behind Dulce Dreams. Trainer S. Trey Wood hands the mount to Ricky Ramirez, and the 3/1 morning-line position reflects how seriously the market is taking both the rating and the record. If Dulce Dreams slips, this runner absolutely has the credentials to take over, and it's a priority place play on exacta tickets.

Aj League brings a 72.97 TrackWiz rating — third-best in the race — and draws Gabriel Medrano for trainer Salvador R. Soto at 6/1. The rating gap between this horse and the top two is real but not extreme, and in a 440-yard trial format the margins can be thin enough that a third-place finish is well within range. Use Aj League as the show leg on trifectas to round out a ticket that leads with two strong production-backed horses.

Tater Hill Senator checks in at 84.34 on our TrackWiz scale with a 40% career win rate — the strongest win percentage among the top-rated horses in this race — and draws Jacob Enriquez for trainer Clinton Crawford at 7/2. The Crawford stable appears throughout tonight's card, and a 40% win rate paired with a near-elite rating makes this horse a strong place contender. The tight rating gap between the top two makes exacta boxing worth considering.

Aj Hard Player posts an 81.04 TrackWiz rating and a 33% career win percentage, drawing Gilberto Linares for trainer John A. Stinebaugh at the 3/1 morning-line position. That 3/1 price makes this the public's second choice despite being our third-rated runner — meaning the show spot may not return much, but the reliability of this horse's profile justifies including it as the cap of trifecta tickets in a race where three horses are genuinely competitive.

Candy in My Arms rates at 74.31 on our TrackWiz scale — second in this field — and draws Gilberto Linares for trainer John A. Stinebaugh at 9/2 on the morning line. The Stinebaugh barn has been active and formidable all night, and this runner's rating gives it a clear claim to the second qualifying spot. Use as the primary place leg under Promising in exactas.

D Amor comes in at 71.24 on our TrackWiz ratings and carries a 50% career win rate — matching our top pick on that metric — with Francisco Raul Ramirez, Jr. up for trainer Jason L. Olmstead at 6/1. A 50% win rate at 6/1 is exactly the kind of overlay that makes trifecta show plays profitable over the long run, and the Olmstead barn has been well-represented throughout tonight's card. This is a legitimate value play on the show end of your ticket.

Cyber River is the value angle of this race — a 76.88 TrackWiz rating that sits just below the favorite, combined with a 33% career win rate, and a 10/1 morning line that looks dramatically underpriced. Trainer Wesley T. Giles puts Noe Garcia, Jr. aboard, a productive combination from tonight's card, and the double-digit odds on a horse this close to the top rating in the race is the kind of overlay that makes place tickets extremely profitable. This is a strong play on the place end of exactas.

Chief Keef 123 checks in at 72.29 on our TrackWiz scale with a 33% career win rate and draws Luis Martinez for trainer Manuel Rodolfo Rodriguez at 4/1. The rating and win percentage are both credible for a show-spot contender, and the Rodriguez barn has had a steady presence throughout the card tonight. At 4/1, Chief Keef 123 is properly priced as a supporting player — use on the show end of trifectas to close out the night's card with a well-structured exotic ticket.
