Race 1
Maiden · 350 yd · Dirt
A wide-open maiden sprint where TrackWiz ratings separate one clear standout from a competitive pack — but at 8/1, the top-rated horse offers genuine value against a field of first-timers.
Winn Onetime Capi earns the top TrackWiz rating in this field at 65.04 — a full eight points clear of the next horse — which is a meaningful gap in a maiden race where raw potential is everything. Drawn in the 10 hole for a 350-yard dirt sprint, gate position matters, and John Raul Valenzuela Jr. is an experienced hand who knows how to get a horse out of the gate clean. At 8/1 on the morning line, the market is undervaluing this one relative to our ratings, which makes this a genuine value play rather than just a chalk play. In a wide-open maiden, a clear top-rated horse at a price is exactly the kind of situation TrackWiz analysis is built to flag.
Wr Smokin Train draws the morning line favorite nod at 3/1 and backs it up with a TrackWiz rating of 56.67 — the third-best mark in the field. Trainer Justin W. Joiner saddles this one with Mario Delgado aboard, a combination that suggests connections believe this horse is ready. As a place play, Smokin Train offers a solid safety net if Winn Onetime Capi gets the job done up front.
Painted Smoke Wagon sits at 55.00 on the TrackWiz scale, tied for third in the field, and carries 4/1 morning line odds that reflect legitimate respect from the morning-line maker. Trainer Samuel E. Valdivia sends this one out with Roman Cruz, who is active throughout today's card and should have a good feel for the track surface. As a show bet or exotic inclusion, Painted Smoke Wagon rounds out a logical top-three that our ratings support.
Race 2
Trial · 350 yd · Dirt
One horse dominates the TrackWiz ratings by a wide margin in this 350-yard trial, but a pair of hidden-form contenders at big prices make the exotics worth playing underneath.
Whiskey Doc is the standout of this entire card through two races — an 88.54 TrackWiz rating is elite for this level, and a 33% career win rate adds real-world credibility to that figure. Trainer Stacey L. Capps sends this one out as the 2/1 morning line choice, and Cody Rodger Smith is an active rider who appears multiple times today, suggesting he's in good form. In a 350-yard trial where early speed rules everything, a horse this highly rated by our model is rarely this easy to identify. This is the most confident selection of the first three races.
Kissmeifyoukan has quietly put together a 40% career win rate, which is a legitimately strong record, and the TrackWiz rating of 74.69 puts this one second in the field. Edwin G. Escobedo gets the call from trainer Joe M. Davis, and at 5/1 morning line odds there's real overlay potential if Whiskey Doc hits any traffic at all. This is a horse that knows how to compete at this distance, and the place spot looks like a strong value.
Prophets View is the show pick at 10/1 morning line — a price that reflects uncertainty but hides a solid 61.31 TrackWiz rating that places this horse third in the field. Trainer Justin W. Joiner also conditions Wr Smokin Train in Race 1 and has an active barn today. Jimmy Dean Brooks is in the irons, and at double-digit odds, Prophets View is worth a small piece in exacta and trifecta coverage.
Race 3
Trial · 350 yd · Dirt
A trial race with two legitimate powerhouses at the top of the ratings while the rest of the field falls off sharply — Cyberville and In D Mand look set to dominate, but at a short price for the favorite, Eclipse 2024 offers exotic value underneath.
Cyberville carries an 87.08 TrackWiz rating and a jaw-dropping 66% career win rate — two-thirds of every race this horse has entered has ended in victory, and that kind of record demands respect. Trainer Joe M. Davis puts Aram S. Martinez in the saddle at a fair 3/1 morning line that reflects the horse's obvious form. In a 350-yard trial built on raw speed and early acceleration, a horse with both the ratings and the win percentage to back it up is as close to a standout as you'll find. This is our top selection in Race 3.
In D Mand isn't far behind at 82.21 on the TrackWiz scale, and a 50% career win rate shows this horse consistently competes at the front of the field. Edwin G. Escobedo rides for trainer Gerardo Quinones-Sarmiento, a barn that shows up across today's card. If Cyberville is at all beatable, In D Mand at 5/1 is the most logical alternative — this horse has the form to run second or better.
Eclipse 2024 rounds out the top three with a 76.84 TrackWiz rating and draws a 6/1 morning line that makes the show spot and exotic coverage genuinely interesting. A 16% career win rate is modest, but in a trial race format, being competitive is what matters — and trainer Julio Rascon-Almanza sends this one out with Angel O. Ramirez aboard. At odds that could be 6/1 or better at post, Eclipse 2024 adds value to trifecta tickets in a race where the top two look fairly clearcut.
