Remington Park Picks & Predictions — September 18, 2026

Mobster is the one horse in here that makes you think twice about fading Positivity outright — his 85.62 rating is nearly identical to the top pick, and trainer Scott E. Young is sending him in at 4/1 with David Cabrera in the saddle. A 26% career win rate is the second-best in the field, and his average speed of 55 means he's got the raw foot to pressure any pace setter. This looks like the key exacta piece in the race.

Cabo Mischief rates third in the field at 72.32 — a meaningful step below the top two but well clear of the rest — and at 9/2 he brings real value as an exotics fill. A 23% career win rate and average speed of 55 suggest Ernesto Valdez-Jiminez will have horse under him turning for home. If the top two hook up on the front end and tire, Cabo Mischief is positioned to catch them late.

Theprincessfactor draws the public's eye at 2/1 morning line odds with the Asmussen barn sending out Erik Asmussen, but at 64.69, the TrackWiz rating says the favorite is overbet. That said, a 16% career win rate and 53 average speed make her a legitimate contender to hit the board, especially if the pace sets up for a mid-race mover. Using her underneath makes more sense than trusting her at chalk prices.

Cloud Number Nine rates third in the field at 61.32 and offers 4/1 morning line value — that's a horse worth including in trifectas. Trainer Oscar Flores puts Tyler W. Bacon aboard, and a 13% career win rate at a mile suggests she's capable of staying on in the late stages. She's the type that quietly holds third while the top two sort themselves out.

Timeless Love is the public's choice at 2/1 with the Asmussen barn's Erik Asmussen in the irons — a combination that's hard to ignore. Her 80.06 rating is second-best in the field, and a 16% career win rate on turf shows she knows how to finish. If she can't hold off Penny Powers at the top of the stretch, expect her to fight for the place spot all the way to the wire.

Hollywoodboulevard rates third at 62.76 and opens at 6/1 — that's meaningful value as a show horse and exotics piece on the turf. Trainer Matt Hebert puts David Cabrera up, and while a 9% career win rate isn't flashy, this horse has consistently found the board in similar spots. She's the type of closer that surfaces late on grass when the pace collapses in the stretch.

Pennington comes in second on our ratings at 55.0 and has an average speed figure of 53 on record — one of the few horses in this field showing a real number. Trainer Kari Craddock puts Leandro D. Goncalves aboard at 4/1, and the combination of proven speed and fair morning line odds makes this a solid place and exacta play underneath the top pick.

Chase's Mojo rates third in the field at 53.33 and opens at a tempting 5/1 with Jose L. Alvarez in the irons for trainer Joe S. Offolter. No speed figure on the card means we're projecting forward on the overall rating, but in a maiden sprint this short, early foot matters most — and the 5/1 price makes him worth including in trifectas as a third horse.

First Player is the Asmussen barn's shot at 5/2, posting an 82.92 rating with Erik Asmussen in the irons — a duo that's shown up in multiple races on today's card. The 10% career win rate is light for a horse at this price, but allowance horses don't always need a high win rate if they're consistent board hitters, and this profile fits that mold. He's the most likely horse to finish second if Royalamerican runs her race.

Youramystyle rates 81.55 — third in the field and within striking distance of the top two — and opens at 4/1 with Ramon A. Vazquez up for trainer Abel Ramirez-Rodriguez. A 23% career win rate is the second-best figure among the contenders, and she looks like a horse who could outrun her odds if either of the top two has any kind of trouble. Strong exotics value at that price in a competitive allowance.

Dutch Mills opens at 8/1 but carries a 69.24 rating and a 23% career win rate — metrics that suggest he's capable of much more than his odds imply. David Cabrera picks up the mount for trainer Justin R. Evans, and with an average speed of 56 — highest among the supporting cast — he has the late punch to run past tiring rivals. At 8/1, Dutch Mills is a genuine value play underneath in exactas.

Blue Light is a fascinating profile with a 40% career win rate — second-best in the entire field — and a 65.64 TrackWiz rating that puts him third in the rankings. Trainer J. R. Caldwell sends him out at 4/1 with Rene Diaz, and his 56 average speed is among the top marks in the race. The career win percentage alone makes him impossible to leave off a trifecta ticket.

Minuetta is the value play we love here — a 33% career win rate is the best in the field by a wide margin, and she opens at 8/1 on the morning line. Trainer Abel Ramirez-Rodriguez puts Ramon A. Vazquez aboard, and a 74.85 rating puts her clearly in the mix with the top contenders. A horse that wins one out of every three starts doesn't deserve to go off at 8/1 in any field — fade her to place at your own risk.

Inca Code rates third in the field at 67.88 and offers 9/2 odds with Richard E. Eramia in the irons for trainer Joe S. Offolter. A 20% career win rate and average speed of 54 give him the credentials to finish in the money in a turf allowance, and his profile fits the mold of a horse that earns checks regularly without always winning. He rounds out a strong exotics play in this race.

Brody's Chrome rates second in the field at 79.18 and offers real value at 8/1 on the morning line, with David Cabrera picking up the mount for trainer Jesse Oberlander. His 56 average speed is the highest in the entire ten-horse field — that raw foot matters in a 6-furlong sprint where pace scenarios can be punishing. A horse with elite speed figures who opens at 8/1 in a dirt claimer is the type of place bet that pays for a full evening's wagering.

Fully Funded posts a 65.06 rating and opens at 5/1 with Rene Diaz up for trainer Shon M. Dunlap — a horse who has shown enough ability to hit the board in this spot. The 54 average speed is in line with the main contenders, and at 5/1 she provides legitimate trifecta value without requiring a leap of faith. Round out your tickets with her as the third horse.
