Del Mar Recap for Saturday, Nov. 24

The Handicap Wizard had a good result today at Delmar, with its top selection winning three out five non maiden races, including the 6th and 8th besides the already mentioned 1st race. In the 6th race—a $40K optional claimer over 1 mile on dirt—the program hit the tri-fecta with its top three selections. The order went Kershaw at 5-2, Popular Kid at 5-1 and Jungle Warfare at 7-2. There were two other horses—Giant Influence and Sheer Flatters—whose odds at 9-2 were in the same upper tier.  The $0.50 tri-fecta paid $30.65.

In the 8th race—a $16K claimer over 6f on dirt—the odds favorite, Spokane Eagle, won at 2-1. The horse was near fair value compared to its winning estimate of 27%. The 5th and 9th races were not considered, the former because of scant data and the latter because of the short 5f distance.
