Mountaineer Park picks, race by race

Also eligible, runs only if there are scratches: Doc B, Before and After, Tail Risk, Gun Policy
- 4Top pickLumeniqueOliveros C · Reed Eric R

- 8Top pickUnworkableBatista L A · Acevedo Israel
Why Unworkable: Clearly the fastest horse in the field on recent figures. Won last time out in an optional claimer. Can use his gate speed to get first run in this sprint.
- 9Top pickK's Unruly NewellyWeatherly B · Musarro Joseph
Why K's Unruly Newelly: Brings the best recent figures into the race. Trending the right way, with each of his last three better than the one before. Won last time out in a maiden special weight.
- 8Top pickZ TownRivera L R · Farrior Anthony
Why Z Town: Quickest from the gate in a dirt sprint that tends to favor speed. Finds a softer field today. Anthony Farrior gets good results with horses coming back in 31 to 60 days.
- 7Top pickHeaven's PromiseOliveros C · Kelly Blake
Why Heaven's Promise: Sits just off the pace, so she can work out a trip either way. Ran 3rd last out, beaten 7½ lengths. Down in price, from $10,000 to $7,500.

- 5Top pickBet a FortuneNegron L · Bernardini Jay P
Why Bet a Fortune: Only one horse in here has run faster lately. The Jay Bernardini barn does well with sprinters. By Unbridled Energy, and bred to handle the sprint.
Value play3 Free Range Bet at 7-2 or higher
Dismissed at 48-1 in his last start, but fits this field. Nobody else in the field has run as fast as him lately. Should get an easy lead with nobody to pressure him.
- 4Top pickTammy's CruiserMartinez B · Clouston Edward
Why Tammy's Cruiser: Second-best recent figures in the field. Ran 2nd last out, beaten a nose. Finished in the top three in 5 of 6 recent races.

Mountaineer Park picks FAQ
Are these Mountaineer Park picks free?
Yes. Every Mountaineer Park card gets a free top pick for every race, a value play with the minimum odds worth taking, and the Best Bet of the day. Trackside Edge members also get the top three in every race with win estimates, pace notes, confidence ratings and multi-race tickets.
When are Mountaineer Park picks posted?
Our Mountaineer Park picks go up before the card, once entries are out, usually a day or more ahead. This page always shows the current or next Mountaineer Park card, and every past card stays in the archive below.
How are the Mountaineer Park picks made?
Every horse is rated by the TracksideProfits handicapping model: speed figures, current form and the likely pace first, then trainer and jockey, distance and surface fit and pedigree, then class, layoffs and workouts.
What does "Bet at 6-1 or higher" mean on a value play?
It is the lowest price at which the value play is worth a bet based on our win estimate. If the horse is shorter than that at post time, the value is gone.
What if one of the picks scratches?
Move to the next pick in that race. Picks are made before scratches and late changes, so always check the final field before you bet.
