Remington Park Picks & Predictions — August 27, 2026

August 27, 202610 racesAll Remington Park picks

It's a hot one at Remington Park today — 93°F under partly cloudy skies, and that Oklahoma summer heat is going to be a factor all afternoon. Ten races are on the board, mixing maiden claimers, allowance company, and a pair of Maiden Special Weight sprints that should draw some genuine talent. Turf shows up in three spots on the card, so keep an eye on the going — summer afternoons like this can firm up the turf course in a hurry, and that changes the game for closers and ground-sensitive types.

The card has something for everyone: short-field sprints where pace scenarios are straightforward, a pair of one-mile turf routes that could get tactical, and some wide-open maiden races where a TrackWiz longshot angle or two could pay off nicely. Ten races, plenty of angles, and a full day of action — let's break it down.

Best Bets

Race 1

11:30 PM EDT

Maiden Claiming · 1 mi · Turf

A maiden claiming mile on the turf with two standout TrackWiz ratings separating themselves from the pack — but with all horses winless, anything can unfold on the grass.

win8No Bull PeteML 5/2

No Bull Pete (8) tops our ratings at 86.19 and leads the field with the best average speed figure at 55 — a meaningful edge in a group where most are bunched at 52-54. Trainer Scott E. Young has two horses in this race, which suggests confidence in the barn's turf form, and jockey Lane J. Luzzi gets the call on the higher-rated of the two. At 5/2 on the morning line, Pete projects as a fair price for the class of the field.

place9Captain FlatterML 9/2

Captain Flatter (9) is the stablemate to look for in the exacta, posting a strong 84.90 TrackWiz rating — just a tick below No Bull Pete. Also trained by Scott E. Young, this barn clearly has a live turf string today, and at 9/2, Captain Flatter offers slightly better value than the top pick for multi-race wagers.

show5MagamakML 5/1

Magamak (5) is the one to beat from outside the top two, carrying a 66.88 rating that clears the rest of the field by a wide margin. The Steven M. Asmussen barn is always worth respecting, and Erik Asmussen in the irons keeps this a family affair — Asmussen horses on the turf at Remington deserve attention. Sneaking into the trifecta at 5/1 is a reasonable expectation.

Race 2

11:58 PM EDT

Allowance · 6 fur · Dirt

Six furlongs on the dirt in an allowance field that looks top-heavy — one runner owns a dominant TrackWiz rating and a career win percentage that puts the rest to shame.

win6From the Top RopeML 5/2

From the Top Rope (6) is the standout in this field with an 87.81 TrackWiz rating, comfortably ahead of every rival. The 37% career win rate is elite for this level — nearly four wins per ten starts is the kind of consistency that allowance conditions are built to reward. Floyd Wethey Jr. gets a live mount for trainer Scott E. Young, a combination that's been productive at this meet. At 5/2, the morning line makes sense, though we'd expect sharp money to compress that number further.

place2West Code MischiefML 7/2

West Code Mischief (2) checks in second in our ratings at 63.47 with a respectable 20% career win rate, showing he knows how to find the winner's circle. Richard Eramia aboard adds a jockey who knows this circuit, and the 7/2 morning line gives you a fair return if he runs second to the top pick. A logical exacta partner.

show4Cryptic MissML 5/1

Cryptic Miss (4) is intriguing as the Boyd Caster barn's second entry — Caster also sends out Devious Diva — and the 62.05 rating with an 18% career win rate makes her a legitimate contender at 5/1. She rates just below West Code Mischief in our numbers, and in a race where the top choice gets beat, she's a strong trifecta inclusion at a price.

Race 3

12:26 AM EDT

Maiden Claiming · 7 fur · Dirt

A maiden claiming sprint on the dirt where the morning line favorite isn't our top-rated horse — there's genuine value to be had if the numbers tell the right story.

win6Queen's EdgeML 3/1

Queen's Edge (6) tops the TrackWiz ratings at 72.52 despite going off at 3/1 on the morning line — a touch of overlay potential in a maiden field. Her average speed figure of 54 matches the top of this group, and trainer Ronnie E. Cravens III gets Mario Fuentes up, a solid combination at Remington. In a race where the chalk (Slighted) is rated over 14 points below our top choice, Queen's Edge deserves serious consideration at that price.

place2SlightedML 2/1

Slighted (2) is the morning line favorite at 2/1 with an Asmussen-Asmussen combination that commands respect — Steven M. Asmussen's barn wins at a high clip and Erik in the irons is a huge positive. The 58.33 rating isn't far off Queen's Edge, and if the pace scenario breaks right for the favorite, she could well reverse our ratings. A key place horse in the exacta.

show3Aloha TracyML 5/2

Aloha Tracy (3) rates very close to Slighted at 57.50 and brings trainer Robertino Diodoro to the table — Diodoro is one of the sharper conditioners on this circuit. The 5/2 morning line is fair, and with Ramon A. Vazquez riding, this filly gets every chance to hit the board. A natural trifecta inclusion in a closely contested maiden field.

Our three free previews today give you a look at both surfaces right out of the gate. No Bull Pete tops our ratings in the Race 1 turf maiden at 86.19 — one of the stronger free-race scores on the card — and with 93-degree heat potentially favoring the firmer portions of the course, pace control could be a real edge at a mile. From the Top Rope draws our attention in Race 2, an Allowance sprint on dirt where a sharp 87.81 TrackWiz rating makes this one of the most confident looks of the afternoon in our free picks. Race 3 brings a wider-open maiden claiming sprint, and Queen's Edge at 3/1 morning line is our top play — though with a 72.52 rating, this is a race where the exacta box might be smarter than a straight win bet.

The common thread across these free races: pace matters. The dirt has been playing typical Remington — speed-friendly in shorter sprints — so front-runners and pace-pressers deserve serious weight today. Don't overthink the surface reads on the free card; the heat is there but the dirt should be consistent through the early races.

Full Card Analysis

Race 4

12:54 AM EDT

Claiming · 5 1/2 fur · Dirt

A short-field claiming sprint with a heavy favorite who dominates the ratings — the real question is whether the price is worth playing or if the exotics offer better value.

win3Senor RojoML 4/5

Senor Rojo (3) is the class of this field by a wide margin — a 90.00 TrackWiz rating, the highest average speed figure in the race at 57, and a 25% career win rate in a spot where he's clearly the class of the field. Trainer Todd W. Fincher is a proven hand, and Richard Eramia is one of the most trusted pilots on the Remington circuit. The 4/5 morning line reflects the dominance — this is a horse you likely need to beat, not fade.

place5WoodspointML 5/1

Woodspoint (5) is our place pick at 75.73 and carries the second-best speed figure in the field at 55. The 5/1 morning line is value for a horse rated this high, and trainer Oscar Flores with Tyler W. Bacon is a combination worth tracking. If Senor Rojo comes back to the field slightly, Woodspoint is ideally positioned to pounce.

show1Myth ConceptionML 6/1

Myth Conception (1) posts a 74.74 rating with an impressive 33% career win rate — the best strike rate in this field by a healthy margin. David Cabrera takes the mount for trainer Mark W. Buehrer, and the 6/1 morning line makes her a solid trifecta anchor. She's closely matched with Woodspoint in our ratings, so don't overlook her in exotics.

Race 5

1:22 AM EDT

Claiming · 1 mi · Turf

A nine-horse turf mile claiming field with a clear ratings standout, but the surface and distance invite surprises — grass races often produce unexpected results.

win3CincalitaML 4/1

Cincalita (3) leads the TrackWiz ratings in this field by a significant margin at 85.62 — a full 16 points clear of the second-rated horse. Trainer Danny Pish is sending out two horses in this race, and he chose Weston Hamilton for this one, which speaks to the barn's confidence. A 20% career win rate at 4/1 on the turf mile makes Cincalita a strong win play and a must-use in all multi-race tickets.

place9Fantasy GirlML 3/1

Fantasy Girl (9) rates second in the field at 69.08 with an average speed figure of 54 and a 16% career win rate. Luis S. Quinonez rides for Joe S. Offolter, a trainer who knows how to place his horses. At 3/1 morning line, she's a logical second choice and a natural exacta partner with the top pick.

show7Claire's CurlinML 9/2

Claire's Curlin (7) is the other Pish entry in the race, rated 64.47 with David Cabrera up at 9/2. The 20% career win rate matches Cincalita's, and when a sharp trainer splits entries, both can run big. Claire's Curlin is an excellent show bet and trifecta piece — don't let the stablemate connection put you off.

Race 6

1:50 AM EDT

Claiming · 5 1/2 fur · Dirt

The morning line favorite isn't our top-rated runner in this dirt claiming sprint — a value opportunity presents itself if the numbers hold up under scrutiny.

win2That Was EasyML 9/2

That Was Easy (2) posts an 84.90 TrackWiz rating — easily the highest in this seven-horse field — and a 14% career win rate on a consistent Remington circuit. Trainer Mindy J. Willis sends out Stewart Elliott, a rider who knows this track's nuances well. At 9/2 on the morning line, That Was Easy looks like a genuine overlay against the 2/1 chalk, making this a high-confidence best bet play.

place1Flat Out ReadyML 5/1

Flat Out Ready (1) checks in at 61.67 with a 16% career win rate and gets the rail draw in a sprint, which can be an advantage if the pace unfolds favorably. Trainer J. Alan Williams with Weston Hamilton is a local combination that shows up ready to run. At 5/1, Flat Out Ready is a solid exacta piece against the top pick.

show5Sweep the WestML 5/2

Sweep the West (5) has an eye-catching 50% career win rate — the best in the field — and a 57.50 TrackWiz rating. The 5/2 morning line makes her the public's second choice, and that form record suggests she rarely runs without purpose. Use her underneath in trifectas, especially at a price that keeps the tickets affordable.

Race 7

2:18 AM EDT

Maiden Special Weight · 6 fur · Dirt

A full twelve-horse maiden special weight at six furlongs on the dirt — big fields mean chaos, and with several unraced horses in the mix, pace scenario and barn connections matter more than usual.

win7Personality PlusML 5/2

Personality Plus (7) leads our ratings at 57.50 and draws the Steve Asmussen-Stewart Elliott combination — one of the most potent one-two punches at any track in the country. Asmussen is known for placing first-time starters in spots where they can win, and an average speed figure of 54 in a field where several horses have no workable figures is a meaningful edge. The 5/2 morning line is fair and we don't expect it to drift.

place9Black MesaML 9/2

Black Mesa (9) rates second in the field at 54.17 with an average speed figure of 54 matching the top of this group. Trainer Austin Gustafson gets Iram Vargas Diego up at 9/2, and in a big maiden field, having a horse with actual published speed numbers is a real advantage. A natural place horse and trifecta inclusion.

show2IamkirkML 5/1

Iamkirk (2) brings trainer Robertino Diodoro and jockey Ramon A. Vazquez — arguably the highest-quality trainer-jockey pairing in the field. The 53.33 rating is solid for a maiden with no published speed figures, and Diodoro runners often improve sharply from debut to second start, which means if this horse has any experience, it's pointed in the right direction. At 5/1, he's worth putting in your trifecta.

Race 8

2:46 AM EDT

Maiden Special Weight · 5 fur · Dirt

An eleven-horse maiden special weight at five furlongs on the dirt where one horse stands alone at the top of the ratings — the question is whether the field can close the gap.

win4Flat Out KelceML 2/1

Flat Out Kelce (4) owns an 88.54 TrackWiz rating — by far the best in this field and one of the highest marks we'll see all day. Trainer Travis Swan Murphy sends out David Cabrera, a top Remington pilot, and the 2/1 morning line reflects the public's respect for this horse's credentials. An average speed figure of 54 is the top of the group among horses with published figures, reinforcing the case for a confident win bet.

place7The Cougars DenML 5/1

The Cougars Den (7) is a clear second in our ratings at 58.11 with an average speed figure of 54, trained by M. Brent Davidson and piloted by Deshawn L. Parker. In a field where most rivals are unproven or lightly figured, a horse with solid numbers and a professional connections package is well-positioned to hit the board. At 5/1, she's the natural exacta bottom with the top pick.

show8West Code LadyML 4/1

West Code Lady (8) rates third in our numbers at 55.00 with a 53 speed figure and Jose L. Alvarez up for trainer Joe S. Offolter. The connections are a known quantity on this circuit, and this filly has done enough in the mornings to earn a 4/1 ticket. A trifecta anchor at a price that doesn't break the bank.

Race 9

3:14 AM EDT

Allowance Optional Claiming · 6 fur · Dirt

An allowance optional claiming sprint on the dirt where the ratings leader is not the morning line chalk — the best bet of the day might be hiding in plain sight at 9/2.

win8Final StormML 9/2

Final Storm (8) tops the TrackWiz ratings at 84.90 and shares the top average speed figure in the field at 56, tied with several others but backed by the highest composite score. Trainer Justin R. Evans gets David Cabrera — one of the meet's leading riders — and a 21% career win rate shows Final Storm knows how to close out races. The 9/2 morning line is a genuine overlay against the 5/2 morning line chalk, making this our strongest value play on the card.

place1J. P. RaceML 7/2

J. P. Race (1) rates second in the field at 77.06, also posting a 56 average speed figure, and the 29% career win rate is the second-best in this race — a legitimately strong performer for trainer Oscar Flores. Tyler W. Bacon gets a live mount at 7/2, and the rail draw in a sprint can be an asset if the pace develops properly. A confident exacta play.

show2Papa KenML 5/2

Papa Ken (2) is the morning line second choice at 5/2 with an Asmussen-Asmussen entry that demands respect — Steven M. Asmussen sends Erik Asmussen out on a horse with a 28% career win rate and a 56 speed figure. The public will back this horse heavily, but our ratings suggest the price is a touch short relative to Final Storm. Still a solid trifecta anchor given the barn's consistent output.

Race 10

3:42 AM EDT

Claiming · 7 1/2 fur · Turf

A full twelve-horse turf claiming route — the longest race of the card — where two horses separate from the field in our ratings and a surprising longshot lurks at a monster price.

win10Executive PowerML 4/1

Executive Power (10) rates at 84.34 — the highest in this twelve-horse field — and posts a 22% career win rate on a steady résumé. Trainer Mindy J. Willis saddles Stewart Elliott, a combination that has found consistent success on the Remington turf, and the 4/1 morning line makes this a fair price for a horse rated this clearly above the field. In a route on the turf where class and consistency are rewarded, Executive Power is the play.

place1DepartureML 8/1

Departure (1) rates second in our numbers at 72.08 and owns the best average speed figure in the race at 57 — that's a real edge in a longer turf race where late pace matters. Trainer Isaiah Ortiz sends Leandro D. Goncalves to the front, and a 35% career win rate is among the most impressive in the field. The 8/1 morning line makes Departure a genuine value play to finish second.

show7Gold FrontML 15/1

Gold Front (7) is our show pick at a 69.58 rating — third in the field — with a 55 average speed figure and a 23% career win rate. Trainer Terry Eoff sends Weston Hamilton on a horse that projects well at 7 1/2 furlongs on the turf, and the 15/1 morning line makes this a huge overlay if our numbers are right. Use Gold Front in trifectas and superfectas to maximize the potential payout.
