Check out my Wednesday (11-20-24) Tampa Bay Downs Race 6 analysis below.
TAM 6 (OC-16k/1x, 6f dirt) – Post Time 3:10 PM ET
Primary – #6 OSPREY, #4 Takechargesmiling
Secondary – #7 Life Is Precious
Horse Comments:
#6 Osprey (5-1) was part of the exacta in his last four starts. High percentage trainer Juan Arriagada has him now and Jose Batista wins races with this barn. He owns competitive speed ratings and projects a stalking trip at a hint of a price.
#4 Takechargesmiling (5-2) cruised to a strong front running win as the heavy favorite in a $12.5k sprint at Delaware Sept. 5. He dueled and weakened to 4th of 7 in a starter allowance sprint Sept. 20 and the show finisher was a next-out winner. He chased the pace and finished 3rd of 7 Oct. 17 and the runner-up was a next-out winner. He figures to attend the pace under Pablo Morales.
#7 Life Is Precious (3-1) exits a show finish at Gulfstream and might have a bit more to offer in his third start after a layoff. He rallied for the place in his lone local dirt sprint try earlier this year.
#8 American Warrior (6-1) moved to the Jon Arnett barn and fired trifecta shots in his last three starts. Antonio Gallardo takes the call and he will try to get involved from off the pace from the outside post.
