Remington Park Picks & Predictions — October 23, 2026

October 23, 20268 racesAll Remington Park picks

It's a beautiful Friday afternoon at Remington Park — partly cloudy skies, 75°F, and the kind of racing weather that keeps pace scenarios honest. Eight races are on the board today, spread across dirt and turf, ranging from maiden sprints to claiming routes, and our TrackWiz models have been working overtime to find the edges.

The card opens with a pair of claiming and maiden contests on dirt before shifting to a turf route in Race 3 — a nice early-card mix that sets up some interesting pace dynamics. The back half of the card is where things get really interesting, with an allowance sprint in Race 7 and a 12-1 morning-line longshot flagged by our analysis in Race 8 that deserves a serious look.

Conditions should be stable all afternoon. The turf is expected to be in good shape, and there's nothing in the forecast that should scramble early trip plans. A solid setup for anyone looking to build into multi-race tickets as the day progresses.

Best Bets

Race 1

11:30 PM EDT

Claiming · 7 fur · Dirt

The Asmussen barn sends out two live ones in this 7-furlong dirt claimer, creating a clear top-two class standout scenario — but a pair of competitive mid-tier horses could make the exotics interesting.

win6Tap the DotML 5/2

Tap the Dot is our top selection, posting the field's highest TrackWiz rating at 87.81 and drawing the morning line chalk at 5/2. A 22% career win rate is the best among the top contenders, showing this horse knows how to close out races. Trained by Steven M. Asmussen with Erik Asmussen in the irons, this barn combination is dangerous anywhere — and at 7 furlongs on the dirt, the pace setup should suit a horse with this kind of consistent speed output averaging 54.

place3YougotthisjrML 3/1

Yougotthisjr sits just a tick behind at an 85.8 TrackWiz rating and also sports a 55 average speed figure, the highest in the field. The 3/1 morning line is fair given the Asmussen connection with veteran jockey Stewart Elliott aboard — this horse has enough raw speed to sit just off a contested pace and threaten late.

show5I'm EnticingML 5/1

I'm Enticing at 5/1 brings a solid 21% career win rate — tied for best in the field — and a 60.17 TrackWiz rating that puts this horse right in the mix for minor awards. Trainer Robbin Caldwell keeps the horse competitive at this level, and with a 53 average speed figure, I'm Enticing figures to be running on at the wire when others tire.

Race 2

11:58 PM EDT

Maiden Special Weight · 5 1/2 fur · Dirt

An all-maiden field with zero career wins across the board makes this a wide-open puzzle — the morning line favorite isn't our top choice, which sets up a potential overlay situation worth attacking.

win6Minnie's PearlsML 9/2

Minnie's Pearls tops our TrackWiz ratings at 81.9 and goes at 9/2 — a real value spot if you're fading the 8/5 morning line favorite. Trained by Francisco Bravo with Floyd Wethey Jr. up, this filly posted a 54 average speed figure, competitive with the best in the field. In maiden sprints, early positioning matters, and this runner profiles as the type who can settle close to the pace and pounce in the final furlong.

place4Whispering CharmML 10/1

Whispering Charm at 10/1 is a legitimate overlay with a 76.88 TrackWiz rating — third-best in the field — despite being buried on the morning line. Trainer Oscar Flores and jockey Tyler W. Bacon team up with a horse that has a 54 average speed figure, matching most of the top contenders. In an unpredictable maiden sprint, this is exactly the kind of price horse that belongs in your exacta.

show5Helene's PowerML 6/1

Helene's Power checks in at 6/1 with a 73.71 TrackWiz rating and a 55 average speed figure — the highest alongside Bird of Prey in the field. Trainer Danny Pish sends this one out with Ramon A. Vazquez, and that speed figure suggests she has the raw ability to hang on for a piece even if she can't reel in the top two.

Race 3

12:26 AM EDT

Claiming · 1 1/16 mi · Turf

A turf claiming mile at 1 1/16 miles features a dominant TrackWiz rating standout, but the pace scenario on the grass could scramble things — several closers in this bunch could benefit if the front-runners tangle early.

win2Timeless LoveML 5/2

Timeless Love is the clear class of this field by our TrackWiz ratings, sitting at 87.81 — well clear of the second-best figure in the race. The Steven M. Asmussen / Erik Asmussen combo is a formidable pairing at any distance, and a 5/2 morning line reflects public respect without being a price-killing overlay. At 1 1/16 miles on the turf, pace tends to be honest and closers are rewarded — Timeless Love projects to have plenty of race left at the top of the stretch.

place1Everyone Nos WendyML 5/1

Everyone Nos Wendy brings the field's second-best career win rate at 22% and a TrackWiz rating of 65.27, making this a solid each-way contender at 5/1. Trainer Juan Padilla keeps this horse competitive on the turf at this class level, and a 53 average speed figure is right in the pack — meaning this horse should be involved all the way around and could sneak into the exacta.

show5Fantasy GirlML 7/2

Fantasy Girl at 7/2 is the third choice on the morning line and carries a 57.83 rating with a career win rate of 22% — matching Everyone Nos Wendy as the most prolific winners in the field. Trainer Joe S. Offolter has a live runner here, and the turf at this distance gives closers an extended run to the wire. This horse is a natural hedge in trifecta tickets.

Three races are fully unlocked for every reader today, and they cover a nice cross-section of the card. Tap the Dot (Race 1, 5/2 morning line) earns our top rating among the free picks at 87.81 on a 7-furlong dirt sprint — the kind of claiming race where pace setup and class consistency often decide things early. Minnie's Pearls (Race 2, 9/2) draws our eye in the 5½-furlong maiden special weight, where the price offers real value relative to her TrackWiz rating of 81.9. Then Timeless Love (Race 3, 5/2) closes out the free tier on the turf route at 1 1/16 miles, matching Tap the Dot's 87.81 rating and giving us a pair of top-rated picks at the same morning line in the opening three races.

Worth noting: Races 1 and 3 share nearly identical TrackWiz ratings and both carry 5/2 morning lines — if either drifts at the windows, that gap between perceived and actual value grows. Keep an eye on the tote before you commit.

Full Card Analysis

Race 4

12:54 AM EDT

Claiming · 7 fur · Dirt

This 7-furlong dirt claimer looks like a two-horse race at the top, with a heavy-duty TrackWiz standout set against a field that drops off significantly in quality behind the top two.

win4SolevoML 8/5

Solevo tops our TrackWiz ratings with an 89.12 — the highest figure in today's race and a commanding lead over the field. Trained by Steven M. Asmussen with Erik Asmussen in the irons, the connections are familiar and consistent, and an 8/5 morning line signals the public agrees this is the one to beat. A 53 average speed figure keeps pace with the field, and in a race where class likely wins out, Solevo projects to dictate terms or run them all down.

place3Club MesquiteML 5/1

Club Mesquite rates second in the field at 79.17 and offers solid value at 5/1 on the morning line. Trainer J.R. Caldwell puts Rene Diaz in the saddle, and a 54 average speed figure gives this horse a slight edge over several rivals. If Solevo draws clear, Club Mesquite looks like the most likely horse to inherit the place spot.

show1Dan d'OroML 6/1

Dan d'Oro at 6/1 is worth including in trifectas with a 75.71 TrackWiz rating — third in the field — and Floyd Wethey Jr. navigating from post one. A 12% career win rate is modest, but trainer Michael Hewitt's horse has enough ability to hit the board in a spot where the bottom of the field is clearly outclassed.

Race 5

1:22 AM EDT

Maiden Special Weight · 5 1/2 fur · Dirt

A deep maiden sprint with two horses rated well above the rest — but the legitimate speedball in this field could wire them all if no one challenges early.

win5The Cougars DenML 2/1

The Cougars Den is our top selection, posting an 87.4 TrackWiz rating and flashing the best average speed figure in the field at 56 — a number that stands out sharply in a maiden sprint. The 2/1 morning line makes this one the public's choice, and trainer M. Brent Davidson has Stewart Elliott up, a winning combination on paper. In a 5 1/2-furlong maiden race, raw speed figures are usually the most predictive stat — and this filly has them.

place10Runaway RubyML 7/2

Runaway Ruby is razor-close behind at an 86.35 TrackWiz rating and offers a bit more value at 7/2 on the morning line. Trained by J.R. Caldwell with Rene Diaz up, this horse carries a 54 average speed figure that puts her squarely in the hunt. If the top pick runs into traffic or gets shuffled, Runaway Ruby has the profile to pounce and steal the exacta.

show7River BomberML 5/1

River Bomber at 5/1 has a 65.86 TrackWiz rating — third-best in this field — and a respectable 54 average speed figure from trainer Mindy J. Willis. David Cabrera is a capable hand in the irons, and for a maiden looking to hit the board in a competitive sprint, this is a horse worth including in trifectas as a deeper-priced safety net.

Race 6

1:50 AM EDT

Maiden Claiming · 7 1/2 fur · Turf

A maiden claiming turf route with a large, evenly-matched field — the top of our ratings diverges sharply from the rest, but turf maiden races are notoriously tricky to predict, and the 7 1/2-furlong distance adds another layer of uncertainty.

win8Mr. JML 7/2

Mr. J tops our TrackWiz ratings at 86.35 and goes as the 7/2 morning line co-favorite alongside Magamak. Trained by Ron Moquett with David Cabrera up, the connections are experienced and capable on the turf. A 53 average speed figure is solid in this company, and Moquett is a trainer who tends to have horses fit and ready — especially on grass.

place10MagamakML 4/1

Magamak is the Asmussen barn's representative at 4/1, carrying a 76.47 TrackWiz rating that's second in the field. Erik Asmussen takes the mount for his father Steven, and while the 52 average speed figure is a tick below some rivals, the class edge from this operation in a maiden claiming field shouldn't be overlooked. This horse profiles as a closer that could benefit from a pace battle up front.

show3BernardoML 9/2

Bernardo at 9/2 posts a 65.83 TrackWiz rating and checks in as a fair price for a horse that could easily hit the board in this competitive maiden claimer. Trainer Karen E. Jacks sends this one out with Javier Padron-Barcenas, and while the 51 average speed figure is modest, turf routes can be surprisingly forgiving for horses who settle well and save ground on the turn.

Race 7

2:18 AM EDT

Allowance · 6 fur · Dirt

An allowance sprint at 6 furlongs features a clear class standout at the top of the ratings, but an eye-catching win percentage from a mid-priced contender makes the pace scenario and exacta construction worth a closer look.

win1ThreesocksML 9/5

Threesocks is our best bet of the race — a 88.83 TrackWiz rating, a 9/5 morning line, and a jaw-dropping 33% career win rate that screams class in an allowance field. David Cabrera gets the call for trainer C.R. Trout, and that jockey/trainer combo should keep this horse close to the pace throughout. At 6 furlongs on the dirt, a front-running or pace-pressing style from a horse with this win rate is a formula for success.

place2Rev's TombML 5/1

Rev's Tomb rates second in the field at 76.98 and offers real value at 5/1 on the morning line. Ramon A. Vazquez pilots for trainer Shea Stuart, and while a 8% career win rate is modest, the speed figure of 53 and the strong TrackWiz score suggest this horse is more capable than the win record implies — perhaps a horse that has been unlucky or lightly raced.

show6C W DazzleML 9/2

C W Dazzle at 9/2 carries a 59.5 TrackWiz rating and a 55 average speed figure — matching Threesocks for best in the race on raw speed alone. Trainer Joe S. Offolter sends this one out with Richard E. Eramia, and a 16% career win rate is respectable. This is a live trifecta option who can run on at the top of the stretch if the pace gets honest.

Race 8

2:46 AM EDT

Claiming · 6 1/2 fur · Dirt

A wide-open 10-horse dirt claimer where our top-rated horse is buried at 12/1 on the morning line — the kind of race where TrackWiz analysis earns its keep by identifying overlooked value.

win2Our Moon PieML 12/1

Our Moon Pie is the TrackWiz top selection at 73.96 — and at 12/1 on the morning line, this represents genuine overlay value. Trainer Steven M. Asmussen sends this one out with Stewart Elliott, a combination that regularly overachieves its odds at Remington Park. A 54 average speed figure is right in the mix, and a horse of this caliber from this barn at this price in a claiming field deserves serious attention.

place6StoningtonML 9/2

Stonington rates 70.21 and goes at a more conventional 9/2 with Ramon A. Vazquez up for trainer Robertino Diodoro. A 54 average speed figure and a 9% career win rate are modest, but this horse is right in the thick of a competitive pace scenario at 6 1/2 furlongs — a distance that rewards horses with steady, consistent stride. Stonington profiles as a natural exacta partner.

show8ColleagueML 6/1

Colleague at 6/1 carries a field-leading 22% career win rate — a significant stat that suggests this horse closes out races better than most in this field. Trainer Shawn H. Davis puts Geovanni Franco in the irons, and the 55 average speed figure is the best posted by any horse in this race. If the pace collapses up front, Colleague looks like the most dangerous closeer to pounce for a piece.
