Friday’s Best US Horse Racing Bets

NB – Second best selection of the day

THE US NEXT BEST (SECOND BEST BET) RUNS IN RACE 8 AT TAMPA BAY DOWNS!

Race 8 Tampa Bay Downs 9.22 Dreaming Of Paris (6/4)

Promising filly who bumped into a good yardstick in Aloha Kitten on return over a mile on turf here and backed that up with another solid effort denied less than a length last time; this easier and open to improvement now tackling dirt.

It’s hard to look past DREAMING OF PARIS here and if she takes to dirt she should have too much for these rivals. It’s an easier race than what she’s been contesting lately and her class is expected to tell. She likes to push forward and might always be dominating here. Sugar Britches is a likeable filly and I thought she ran well when second to Drill’s Valentine over the extended 6f here last time. A similar effort would see her bang there and she is probably the threat to the favourite. Teton Thai hasn’t been running badly but is held by the latter so might outrun her price-tag but needs more to win this. Sharon’s Law is open to further improvement and is also worth noting.
