The Biz- March 30, 2024
Picks and analysis for this evening’s card from Hollywood Casino at Charles Town Races:
- DATE: March 30, 2024
- RACES ON CARD: 8
- CARRYOVERS: Jackpot Pick 6, $1,929
RACE 1
| 6. Marcus Junius | Some tasty chalk to start the night; blinkers on for the morning line fave |
| 2. Scotch No Rocks | Nearly forced out into the parking lot around first turn in last |
| 1. Only Get’n Better | Looks like this one’s starting to figure this racing thing out |
RACE 2
| 3. Landon Jack | Could benefit from new surroundings; ran well in prior bullring try last summer at the Big T |
| 1. My Balboa | Legit excuses in only off-color race in last half-dozen |
| 8. Missionary | Speedy sort has run well in claiming company |
RACE 3
| 2. Louie’s Heat | Scratched out of Friday night heat to await this one; drops to bottom |
| 8. Dowsing Rod | Local tries contend |
| 7. Stayinyourlane | Drops to bottom off long layoff; wins on best, but we’ll wait and see on this one |
RACE 4
| 5. Lucky Blonde | Season bow for ’23 Sadie Hawkins winner; Grams barn off to productive start to the year, and this one might sit the trip |
| 2. Magic Beauty | Speedy sort has won five of eight and figures a handful if loose early, but other early types complicates matters |
| 7. Texas Tangie | Saw three-race win streak snapped in last at PRX |
RACE 5
| 4. Mr. Dumbledore | Second three straight versus similar, may have too much here |
| 8. Destin’s Rainbow | Sharp graduation score in last over next-out special weight winner |
| 11. Aldarighttricks | Must navigate from outer post if drawing in off AE list |
RACE 6
| 3. Keep On Spurrin | Willing try as favorite in last when antsy in the gate and bobbling at the break |
| 8. Cherokee Castle | Is a half-length away from a four-race win streak; interesting to see her back in claiming company after allowance score |
| 5. Shewearsstilettos | Maybe a confidence boost when besting claiming foes in last |
RACE 7
| 3. Muad’dib | Solid return to action as 7yo begins climb to $1 million, but note that regular pilot Boca heads to other Runco runner, leaving this one to his son |
| 2. Social Chic | Had it his own way when beating similar last out; may not be quite so easy this time |
| 6. No Change | Late-running sort concluded ’23 with three straight wins but inclined to reward recency against rugged field in this spot |
RACE 8
| 8. Skylar’s Sister | One of these days I’ll stop chasing this one, but that day is not today; does love to fill bottom of the exacta |
| 4. Dashing Lass | Credible season bow in last when facing winners for the first time, can improve today |
| 2. Glass Star | First local try |

1.”I See Nothing”wrong with the Chalk
except the price,”Don’t Question Me”on this.
2.If ‘Landan Jack”looks back,”Glaston may bury”him.
3.I’ll try to beat”Louie’s Heat”with a “Super Buster”,” A B C Ya”.
4.A “Lucky Blonde”is a”Magic Beauty”but “Texas Tangle”will be hard to wrangle.
5.”Alldarighttricks”is one of my picks
but”Soul Catcher”my eye and
“Mr Dumbledore”is hard to ignore.
6.Here’s hopin”Shewearstilttos”,”Keeps On Spurrin”
7.I’ll go with”Social Chic”because Arnoldo does
and”Late in The Game”to tame”Muad’dib”in his bid.
8.”Skylar’s Sister”is no”Dashing Lass” so I’ll go with
“Push”to get off her tush and”Glass Star”to go this far.
