Welcome to Lethbridge RMTC on September 13th — a tight six-race Sunday card that punches well above its weight in terms of betting interest. Temperatures are sitting at a cool 56°F under cloudy skies, and while the official surface is listed as dirt, that kind of overcast, mild weather in southern Alberta can keep the track playing consistently all afternoon. No excuses for the runners today.

The card opens with a pair of allowance sprints before transitioning into a claiming double and then two Starter Optional Claiming routes to close things out. It's a well-structured afternoon that builds nicely from the sprint game into the longer 7-furlong tests — and TrackWiz analysis has spotted plays worth watching at both ends of the odds board.

Best Bets

Race 1

2:15 PM EDT

Allowance · 6 fur · Dirt

A heavily tilted opener where the morning line tells the whole story — Bizzy Lizzy comes in as a prohibitive 1/2 favorite, and the rest of the field is fighting for scraps.

win3Bizzy LizzyML 1/2

Bizzy Lizzy is the standout of this card's opening race by a wide margin, carrying a TrackWiz rating of 90 — more than six points clear of her nearest rival. She's the only horse in the field with an average speed figure on record (55), giving her a measurable edge in a race where most rivals are running on unknown quantities. Trainer Jaqueline Smith puts her in with jockey Larris Allen, a combination that should have this mare sitting comfortably on or near the pace in a 6-furlong dirt allowance. At 1/2 on the morning line, the price isn't there, but the confidence is — she's the bet-down favorite for a reason.

place5Goldie SocksML 2/1

Goldie Socks draws the 5-post at 2/1 on the morning line and backs it up with a TrackWiz rating of 83.93, second-best in the field. Andre Powell gets the call for trainer Krista A. Shearer, and this filly looks like the clearest price to finish in the exacta behind the heavy favorite. With career win percentage sitting at 8%, she's more of a placing specialist than a winner, which is exactly why the place slot makes sense here.

show4OopsML 3/1

Oops (No. 4) is an interesting inclusion at 3/1 with a rating of 52.47 — not flashy, but trainer Colten Mead has shown a knack for squeezing competitive efforts out of modest horses. The 4% career win rate suggests she rarely gets to the winner's circle, but in a short field where the top two are well above the rest, she has a legitimate shot at the show spot. A useful exotic piece in the trifecta underneath.

Race 2

2:40 PM EDT

Allowance · 6 fur · Dirt

Snow Ghost tops the TrackWiz ratings convincingly, but Standard Pressure's 33% career win rate makes this a two-horse race with genuine intrigue at the top of the card.

win3Snow GhostML 7/2

Snow Ghost lands at the top of our ratings for Race 2 with an 86.35 score, and the 7/2 morning line actually offers some value given how far ahead she is of the field on paper. The 23% career win percentage is the best in this race by a meaningful margin, and trainer Lyle W. Magnuson puts Larris Allen aboard — the same rider who has the top pick in Race 1. In a 6-furlong dirt allowance, Snow Ghost looks like she has the tools to dictate or sit close to whatever pace sets up, and that versatility is a major asset.

place5Standard PressureML 2/1

Standard Pressure is the most accomplished winner in this field percentage-wise, boasting a 33% career win rate that stands alone in this group. She carries an average speed figure of 54 and a TrackWiz rating of 78.77, and trainer Bill C. Schmitt has her well-placed at 2/1. Andre Powell is a savvy booking for a horse that could press the pace — if Snow Ghost stumbles or gets caught in traffic, Standard Pressure is the one most likely to clean up.

show1McKenna MoonML 3/1

McKenna Moon opens at 3/1 with a rating of 54.32 and an 18% career win percentage — respectable enough to pop up in the show spot in a race that doesn't have overwhelming depth beyond the top two. Trainer Jocelyn L. Giesbrecht is no stranger to placing horses in competitive spots, and Orlando Foster takes the mount. She's the logical third-place finisher for trifecta purposes if the top pair runs as expected.

Live odds, scratches and ratings for all 5 runners

The first three races are open to all TrackWiz readers, and they give us a clear theme to work with: dirt sprints where early pace and class consistency matter most. Bizzy Lizzy opens the day as a dominant 1/2 morning-line chalk in Race 1 — that kind of price tells you the connections feel they have a significant edge, and our rating of 90 backs that confidence up. She's the anchor of the free card. Race 2 flips the script with Snow Ghost offering real value at 7/2, a top rating of 86.35, and the kind of pace scenario that suits a come-from-behind type on a track that could be playing fair all day. Then in Race 3, Countess Cat steps into the claiming ranks at 6/5 with a 89.71 rating — a short price, yes, but the numbers justify the chalk.

Across these three free races, the consistent thread in our analysis is pace. The 6-furlong distance in Races 1 and 2 and the 5½-furlong sprint in Race 3 all set up as contested early, which tends to benefit horses that can rate just off the lead rather than front-runners who might get caught late. Keep that angle in mind as the day unfolds.

Race 3

3:05 PM EDT

Claiming · 5 1/2 fur · Dirt

This claiming sprint sets up as a duel between two short-priced favorites — Countess Cat and Hazael — while the rest of the field looks outgunned at 5-and-a-half furlongs.

win2Countess CatML 6/5

Countess Cat is our top-rated horse in Race 3, carrying a 89.71 TrackWiz score and a 26% career win percentage that ties for the field's best. Andre Powell has the mount for trainer Chandra Clarke, and at 6/5 on the morning line, the market agrees she's the one to beat. In a short-distance claiming race, gate speed and class matter, and Countess Cat checks both boxes — she's the type who can put rivals away early and not look back.

place5HazaelML 8/5

Hazael also posts a 26% career win rate and comes in with a TrackWiz rating of 76.79, making him the second-most credentialed horse in the field. The 8/5 morning line puts him firmly in the mix, and trainer Colten Mead has Orlando Foster in the saddle — a sharp rider-trainer combo. With an average speed figure of 52 on record, Hazael has shown he can produce competitive numbers at this distance, making the place spot a solid landing spot if Countess Cat gets the edge in the stretch.

show4Silver SignML 6/1

Silver Sign is the value inclusion here at 6/1, with a rating of 54.38 and a 13% career win rate. Both trainer Justin P. Weaselhead entrants are in this race, but Silver Sign with Garfield Gordon gets our nod for the show spot over Miss Charge It. At 6/1, he's live enough in the exotics to warrant a small inclusion in the trifecta, especially if the two favorites put on a pace duel and set the table for a closer.

Race 4

3:30 PM EDT

Claiming · 5 1/2 fur · Dirt

Race 4 is a claiming dash where the morning line favorite Orth is actually third in our ratings — the TrackWiz numbers point to a potential upset of the chalk.

win1ThisismystoryML 5/2

Thisismystory draws the rail and carries the top TrackWiz rating in the field at 86.31, opening at 5/2 — genuine value for the top-rated runner. The 18% career win rate is solid for claiming company, and trainer Cindy M. Cummins teams up with Blandford Stewart, a combination that should be motivated to fire fresh. At 5-and-a-half furlongs, position out of the gate is critical, and the 1-post could be a factor if she breaks cleanly and finds the rail early.

place4Baytown SundanceML 6/1

Baytown Sundance is an intriguing price at 6/1 on the morning line with a TrackWiz rating of 82.71 — second-best in the race. The 21% career win percentage speaks to a horse who runs competitively on a regular basis, and Trevor Simpson gets the call for trainer Jocelyn L. Giesbrecht. At that morning line price, if she can follow the winner home, the exacta with Thisismystory could offer some real juice for players willing to go against the 8/5 chalk.

show6OrthML 8/5

Orth is the morning line favorite at 8/5, but our analysis slots him third based on a 68.62 rating — still good enough for the show, just not the dominant number some bettors might assume. The 11% career win rate is modest for a chalk, which is worth noting. Trainer Colten Mead has Orlando Foster in the irons, a reliable combo, but this horse may be best used underneath rather than on top if you're playing exotics.

Race 5

3:55 PM EDT

Starter Optional Claiming · 7 fur · Dirt

The Starter Optional Claiming at 7 furlongs sets up with a clear top two on paper, but Bernalinho's rating bump over the morning-line favorite Cats Touch creates an interesting betting angle.

win5BernalinhoML 6/5

Bernalinho is our top-rated runner at 89.71 and the morning line favorite at 6/5, pairing trainer Jaqueline Smith with jockey Larris Allen — the same productive combo from Race 1. His average speed figure of 57 is the highest recorded number in this entire field and gives him a measurable pace advantage around two turns at 7 furlongs. The 25% career win rate backs up the idea that he's a consistent performer, not just a paper tiger. He's the one to beat, and at 6/5, you're not going to get rich backing him — but he should be the anchor in all your exotic tickets.

place2Cats TouchML 2/1

Cats Touch sits at 2/1 on the morning line with an 84.49 rating, making this a legitimate top two that's well separated from the rest of the field. Trainer Shawn Calfrobe puts Andre Powell in the saddle — one of the more active riders on the card today. If Bernalinho gets pressured early at the longer distance, Cats Touch could be sitting just off the pace and ready to pounce in the stretch for the place or even the win.

show3Dear SantaML 5/2

Dear Santa comes in at 5/2 with a 63.49 rating and a 24% career win percentage — the best career win rate among the three horses we've slotted behind the top two. Trainer Chandra Clarke gives Blandford Stewart the mount, and with an average speed figure of 54 on record, Dear Santa has tangible form numbers to lean on. At 5/2, she might not offer huge overlay value, but she's a sensible show bet and a logical trifecta piece underneath the top pair.

Race 6

4:20 PM EDT

Starter Optional Claiming · 7 fur · Dirt

Race 6 is the most contentious race of the night — four horses are separated by fewer than 30 rating points and the morning line is spread wide, making this the prime exotic race on the card.

win2Rose of JerichoML 8/5

Rose of Jericho tops our ratings in Race 6 at 89.12 and opens as the 8/5 morning line favorite, with trainer Colten Mead and jockey Orlando Foster forming one of the more productive combos on the grounds. The 24% career win percentage is among the best in this field, and in a Starter Optional Claiming event at 7 furlongs, class and consistency are rewarded. She has the profile of a horse who can sit a comfortable trip and find another gear in the final furlong.

place5Deficit MajaML 5/2

Deficit Maja opens at 5/2 with a strong TrackWiz rating of 82.32, making her the clear second choice on paper despite a 17% career win rate. Trainer Chandra Clarke — who also sends out Thunder Kin in this race — puts Blandford Stewart aboard, and a multi-entry from a sharp barn is always worth noting. She doesn't have a recorded speed figure, but the rating suggests she's been running well enough to threaten for the exacta, especially if the pace gets honest over the longer 7-furlong trip.

show3KulsumML 8/1

Kulsum is a legitimate longshot angle at 8/1 on the morning line with a 65.52 TrackWiz rating — not far off the pack and clearly better than the bottom of this field. Trainer Roy Romanow gives Trevor Simpson the mount, and the 9% career win rate is low, but in a wide-open race where four horses have realistic claims on the win, Kulsum could sneak into the show hole. If you're building a trifecta and looking for a price, she's a reasonable third-leg option at that price.
