Emerald Downs Picks & Predictions — June 13, 2026

Mo Sassy posts a 55 rating with Allyssa Morales up for trainer James Gilmour. The 4/1 price gives you a little breathing room, and in a race where the winner could come from literally anywhere, stacking the top two on the TrackWiz board in the exotics makes good sense. The 53 average speed figure is a tick off the pace, which could set up a ground-saving trip off the early speed.

Con Leche draws the rail at 7/2 and carries a 52.87 rating — not far behind the top two on the board. Trainer Jorge Rosales sends this one out with Jairo Moreno, and the post position sets up well for a ground-saving trip around two turns at six furlongs. In a maiden field where form is hard to project, the rail and a respectable speed figure make Con Leche a logical show insurance play.

Aventapp brings the top average speed figure in the field at 56 and a 70.7 TrackWiz rating that makes the horse the clear second choice on the numbers. Karlo Lopez gets the call for trainer Joe Toye, and a 15% career win rate shows this one competes regularly. The 7/2 price says the market respects Aventapp — a solid place anchor in the exacta beneath Ginger in Charge.

Rabble is a sneaky interesting piece at 6/1 with a 70.32 rating that essentially matches Aventapp on the TrackWiz scale. Trainer Howard Gibson saddles Blake Nunnally, and a 12% career win rate isn't flashy but shows a horse that earns checks. In a race with two legitimate top horses, Rabble's profile as a closer makes him a natural trifecta fill at a price the market hasn't fully cooked.

Cut N Curl checks in at a 68.47 rating for trainer Terri Eaton with Pablo Castillo aboard. A 5% career win rate might look thin, but the raw speed number at 55 matches the pace setters, and the 5/1 morning line suggests this is a horse the market is overlooking in the win pool but likely to board. Solid place inclusion for multi-race exotics.

Above the Ordinary grades out at 67.93 with a 12% career win rate — respectable numbers in a competitive claiming sprint. Karlo Lopez rides for Victor Trujillo, and a 5/2 morning line tells you the public is interested at the top of the ticket. The 54 average speed figure is a point below the leaders, which could actually set up a well-timed late run if the pace gets honest.

Kinky Moon's 67.92 rating puts the horse clearly in the second tier of this field, and Frank Alvarado takes the mount for trainer Steve Fisher at a 5/2 morning line. The 53 average speed figure is a touch behind the leaders, which historically sets up a stalker trip in a multi-horse pace scenario — exactly what 6½ furlongs on the front end might produce if the big field gets strung out early.

Fae Allannah is the TrackWiz longshot angle at 10/1 — a 65.35 rating that ranks third in the field trails only the top two picks by a meaningful margin. Trainer Victor Trujillo sends Kevin Orozco out from the 9-hole, and while the outside post can be a hike in a sprint, a nine-horse field often sees the pace implode in front. At 10/1, this is a legitimate trifecta candidate who grades well above her price.

Miss Dynamic is right there at 84.86 with Adrian Castellanos aboard for Rigoberto Velasquez — a trainer who has multiple entries working at Emerald Downs today, always a sign of a hot barn. The 36% career win rate is among the highest in the field, and a 4/1 morning line gives you a fair-value place play behind the top selection. This is a horse that competes and converts at a high clip.

Above Average sits at 84.17 — just a fraction behind Miss Dynamic on the TrackWiz scale — with Silvio Ruiz Amador riding for Mark Cloutier. A 20% career win rate and a 55 average speed figure both check out, and the 5/1 morning line means you're getting reasonable return on a horse that rates firmly in the top tier of this competitive claiming field. In a race this tight at the top, show and trifecta coverage across the 3-6-7 makes a lot of sense.

Code Breaker is the value angle in this race — an 8/1 morning line on a horse with a 67.32 TrackWiz rating and a 15% career win rate. Trainer Kendra Lyons also saddles Blackjack and Beer in this race, and a 56 average speed figure ties for the field's best alongside stablemate Blackjack. At 8/1, Code Breaker is likely to be underbet, making this a strong place overlay if Pistol Power takes the top spot as expected.

Coastal Waters draws post 4 with Kevin Krigger up for trainer Scott Tubbs — a trainer who has shown up well in today's earlier races. The 53.95 rating is mid-pack, but a 54 average speed figure is consistent and the 8/1 morning line makes this a legitimate trifecta inclusion at an attractive price. Tubbs has already proven willing to fire today, and this is a horse worth putting in underneath at a price.
