Latest Will Rogers Free Picks

Will Rogers is not racing today. Below are the free picks from the last Will Rogers card, October 27, 2026.

Race 1

Claiming · 350 yd · Dirt

One horse stands well above the field on the TrackWiz ratings in this 350-yard claiming sprint, but the morning line offers a thin overlay — value lurks underneath with two stablemates splitting the Whitekiller barn.

win5Manhattan At SunsetML 2/1

Manhattan At Sunset carries the field's top TrackWiz rating of 88.54, a significant gap above the second-ranked Zoeys Louie V at 64.94. Trainer Matt Whitekiller has two horses in this race, which tells you he's confident in the barn's condition right now. The 2/1 morning line isn't generous, but when a horse dominates the ratings this decisively in a short 350-yard sprint where there's little room for pace to develop, you ride the number.

place4Captains Little AnnieML 4/1

Captains Little Annie draws the fourth post and rates second-best in the field at 70.77 — a meaningful step ahead of the rest of the non-Manhattan horses. With an 8% career win rate in what looks like a limited sample and trainer Eddie Willis sending her out at a 4/1 morning line, there's mild place value here if she breaks clean in a race that will be decided in a blink.

show6Zoeys Louie VML 5/1

Zoeys Louie V is the intriguing barn-mate angle — trainer Matt Whitekiller runs both her and the top pick, but she rates third in the field at 64.94 and carries the field's best career win rate at 14%. In a 350-yard race where the winner is often decided by the break, having a horse with a sharp winning habit from the same confident barn makes her a reasonable show include in your exotics.

Race 2

Allowance · 870 yd · Dirt

Praying for Bux heads a contentious allowance field at 870 yards — the longest distance on the card — where sustained pace matters and a couple of horses boast eye-catching career win rates worth scrutinizing.

win3Praying for BuxML 4/1

Praying for Bux tops the TrackWiz ratings at 85.62 and shares an identical 22% career win rate with the morning-line favorite Slamdunnk — but Praying for Bux gets there at a 4/1 morning line, making this a legitimate overlay situation. Trainer Tony Dean Jones puts Angel O. Ramirez in the irons, a combination worth tracking at Will Rogers. At 870 yards, you need a horse that can sustain speed through the stretch, and the rating edge here suggests Praying for Bux has the profile to do exactly that.

place2SlamdunnkML 2/1

Slamdunnk is the public's choice at 2/1 for good reason — a 22% career win rate is strong, and trainer Stacey Capps puts up a solid book at this level. The rating at 72.28 is the second-best in the field, and Ronnie Huckaby knows how to get horses into position in longer quarter horse routes. If the favorite can't quite clear our top pick, Slamdunnk should be right there.

show4Destinyofthenile BcML 3/1

Destinyofthenile Bc rates fourth in the field at 62.69 but comes in with an 18% career win rate and has the benefit of trainer Bryan Calloway, who also runs Shanile Bc in this same race — suggesting the barn is live. At 3/1 on the morning line, this isn't a screaming value, but for show purposes in an allowance race with some question marks, Destinyofthenile Bc is a reasonable safety net in your exotics.

Race 3

Claiming · 350 yd · Dirt

A fascinating pace puzzle in this 350-yard claiming sprint — the morning-line favorite doesn't carry the top rating, and the horse with the best TrackWiz number comes in at a juicy 3/1 that may underestimate his edge.

win5Rrelentless RedML 3/1

Rrelentless Red is the clear choice on TrackWiz ratings at 87.08, despite going off at 3/1 — a full point longer than the 2/1 morning-line favorite Seaductive Pursuit, who rates a distant 50.55. That's a 36-point rating gap in a 350-yard sprint where talent tends to reveal itself fast and furiously. Edwin G. Escobedo picks up the mount for trainer Joe Davis, who also saddles Cyberville in this field — Davis clearly has the barn rolling. The 3/1 price on the top-rated horse in the field is the value of the early card.

place1BeauxreguardML 4/1

Beauxreguard brings the field's second-best rating at 75.69 and an impressive 28% career win rate, suggesting he fires regularly when he's right. Trainer Edward Cobos puts Cristian Esqueda aboard from the one-hole — breaking sharp is everything at 350 yards, and that post-position could be a genuine asset. At 4/1, there's real place value here.

show4Gold MedalistML 8/1

Gold Medalist is the value selection for show — an 8/1 morning line on a horse with a 57.58 rating that sits third in the field on our numbers. His 20% career win rate is modest but not dismissible, and trainer Samuel Valdivia isn't throwing this horse away. In a short field where pace can shuffle things unexpectedly, sticking Gold Medalist in your show position for the exotics makes sense at that price.
