Road to the 2026 BCBC: Selection Sunday Edition

March 15, 2026

There’s no better time than now!

I’m back for a special Selection Sunday edition of a BCBC qualifier. We head out west again to Santa Anita for a double order of some onions to get us into Saturday’s qualifier. At some point my luck needs to turn around! Ok, now onto the selections. 

Race 2 – 5 Outrageous just looks like the class of the field here. Consistent speed figures that lay over this field. Give me the chalk. 

Race 3 – 2 Bright Eye Bungle, some really solid looking maidens in here. 2 from the Damato barn that are making their first American starts. 2 Bafferts that are an auto toss just on percentages. The Glatt horse, Tap the Gin was intriguing but ultimately I went with Fresu and a horse with some starts under his belt. 

Race 4 – 4 Contrary Chieftan, short field, this horse towers above. I’ll take the $4-5 and move on. 

Race 5 – 4 Crazy Cavalier, has good speed figs and appears to prefer this 8f distance. Jaramillo was hot yesterday so let’s keep it going at 10-1

Race 6 – 1 Magnificat, might be able to sit off the the top 2 favs in here and run them down late after dueling. 

Race 7 – 5 Public Assembly ran well in her least turf race going long. She was nailed by Mrs Astor who will be favored in here. She’s also beaten Paradise Lake twice. 

Race 8 – 7 Big Miss has the figures to improve and take down this pretty terrible field

Race 9 – 6 Eiffel has the back figures to fit here and she has the late pace advantage in a race with likely a lot of speed.

God Speed and Go Dayton Flyers!

Jon, thank you for the Sure Bet Coffee play on Beautiful Love. That win bet helped offset my loss on the Pick 5 at "play at your own risk" Kentucky Downs that day.
