Thursday’s American Horse Racing Tips

After going close on debut PRESSLEY RIDGE improved again to miss just a nose over C&D last month and with usual progression he should be able to open his account here. Another few strides and he would have got up last time and I expect him to confirm that form with Orville B. The latter has been held by the fav the last twice but could still emerge as the biggest danger. Formyboys was down the field in that race but that was his debut so if improving may prove best of the rest.

The hat-trick seeking YOU MUST CHILL looks worth keeping on side at Laurel Park. He won over a mile here back in July and then followed up always doing enough at Penn National back in August. This trip clearly suits him well and he should be the one to beat again if in the same form. Rough Sea is also on a hat-trick and was impressive last time but he is a 10yo now and is no certainty to back that up. Graded On A Curve was back in the winners enclosure last time and might be a bigger threat.
