The racing week at Churchill Downs concludes this afternoon with a ten-race card that gets started at 1PM eastern. The slate is headlined by a second-level allowance event at one-mile over the lawn. Here are a few horses I like most on the Sunday fall card under the twin spires.Race 3:My first play of the day comes in this beaten $50k claimer at six-furlongs over the main track where #6 Huck’s Agenda was made the 7-5-ML favorite by oddsmaker Nick Tammaro, but I prefer 5-2-second choice #2 Candy’s Melody. The daughter of Shancealot makes her fourth start off the claim for trainer Eddie Kenneally. Kenneally claimed the 3YO filly for $30k at Ellis Park and has seen her rattle off a win and a second in three tries since. She takes a slight drop-in class after a stalk and fade performance at Keeneland at seven-furlongs and should be ready for her best since her barn is red-hot. In fact, Kenneally is 4 for his last 8 dating back to November 5, including a win with Groveland in the Claiming Crown Jewel yesterday. The bug boy Yomar Ortiz Jr. takes the call.Play: #2 Carol’s Melody (5-2 ML)Picks: 2-1-6Race 5:My next play comes in this MSW event for 3YOs+, again at the six-furlong distance over Churchill Downs main track, where I like #3 Justice. Trainer Wayne Mackey does not start many horses in the afternoon these days, but the veteran conditioner is capable with the ones he sends out. The Peter Blum Thoroughbreds homebred debuted against Deep Flame this spring before being given time by Mackey. After the break, Justice returned in a MSW at Keeneland over the slop where he broke sharp, stalked just off the pace while three-wide on the backstretch, and tired in the lane. I like the fact that the son of Justify is able to put back-to-back races together for the first time. He should offer solid value in what appears to be a wide-open final leg of the early Pick 4 and Pick 5.Play: #3 Justice (6-1 ML)Picks: 3-8-7Race 9:The pace should be honest at the very least in the Sunday feature over the grass. #4 Next Up is a price option that could take advantage for trainer Matthew Sims, but her eight runner-up efforts in 16 career starts is an obvious red flag. I will use her underneath, but I like #11 Icona most. The Heider Family Stables runner has to overcome the challenging outside draw, but comes in fresh for trainer Brendan Walsh after a fourth-place run in her first try against stakes foes at Ellis Park this summer. Prior to that, she came with a strong late run to get the money in a first-level allowance at the Pea Patch and should be rolling late assuming Tyler Gaffalione can avoid a wide voyage into the first turn. I will take my chances that he can do so with this Kingman filly that looks the gal with the strongest late kick all things equal.Play: #11 Icona (7-2 ML)Picks: 11-4-10

Northfield Park has a big 16-race card and the $1.00 Late Pick 4 with a $10,000 guaranteed pool rolls in Race 11. The Spot Plays are in Race 4, Race 11, and Race 13. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.Race 4 (7:06 PM EST)1-Fox Valley Polaris (5/2)-Will go with Aaron Merriman on the pylons with a filly that is only for 1-14. This is not a group to be afraid of, and the 1/1 chalk is 0-5 at Nfld. Needs an efficient journey to win, has a pilot that knows how to work a suck-around trip and to be the best down lane.1-4-2Race 11 (9:40 PM EST)9-Turn Up The Music (5-1)-Makes its Nfld debut, has 5 wins in 22 races, and has been the best on the 5/8's. But should be a main player against this kind if it takes to the turns. Has a chance to get a top of the stack trip and double up as Justin Irvine could leave with the program chalk from the 1-hole. Sam Widger steers for Virgil Morgan Jr and will expect a big try.9-1-4Race 13 (10:24 PM EST)3-Ima Beach Girl (5/2)-This is an interesting group of Open Handicap horses and normally wouldn't lean toward a 3-year-old. But it's late in the year and the driver change back to Justin Irvine should help. The 3/2 chalk leaves from post 9 and could go off at odds-on. Looks the part of a chalk in some ways, but doesn't show a recent win at this level. My play is to get a fair price. The Schillaci pupil should be put in a striking range and has posted wins at Nfld (18-3-1-4). Will look for Irvine to leave, get a good early seat and to push the button at the right time.3-9-5Check me out on X!

The Meadowlands closes out stakes season with a loaded 14-race card. The headliners are the Grade 1 Fan Duel Championships, plus top 2-two-olds will be battling in stake races. The Spot Plays are in Race 7, Race 10, and Race 11. Comments and sections below are based on a fast track.Race 7 (8:50 PM EDT)4-Ken Hanover (8-1)-The morning line chalk is #5 Women Layer (5/2) who comes off a string of high-quality outings and my take is it will be bet down. My lean will be toward this veteran who hit the board in 9 of 15 at M1 and has taken 3 pictures. Comes off 3 straight dull efforts. The last race was in the Breeders Crown Final and was out of it from the start, but no one was beating Dandy Ideal that night. Will look for a bounce back effort at a juicy price. Regular pilot Tim Tetrick is back tonight and should be forwardly placed off the car. The 6-year-old had some nice efforts in September and will take a swing at a big number. Did have a 147.4 mark at M1 at 4 and 147.3 lifetime mark at Wbsb last year.4-5-3Race 10 (10:05 PM EST)4-Miss Dolce (6-1)-The 2-year-old has won 3 of the last 4 at M1, and the string was broken in the last start. Did get bet down 2/5, was paced compromised, had a wide trip from the 8-hole and finished 2nd by a nose. Joe Bongiorno steers for trainer Joe Holloway, has the gate speed to land on the point and not look back. Has improved since shipping in from Lex. Likes M1 (7-3-1-0), will look for another top try and to finish the season on a high note.4-3-6Race 11 (10:30 PM EDT)6-Eastie Boy (3-1)-The Ron Burke pupil comes off a win a DD and knows how to take pictures on a larger oval. Won the Metro at Mohawk in 149.2 getting on the engine and made every call a winning one. Makes its M1 debut here with its one and only pilot Ronnie Wrenn between the pipes. Should be on top or in the 2 hole off the car. That is the preferred journey and could be tough to stop.6-4-5Check me out on X!

Claiming Crown weekend at Churchill Downs gets started later today with a competitive card that commences at 1PM eastern. The 11-race slate is headlined by a $134k allowance at two-turns over the grass. Here are a few horses I like most on the Friday afternoon slate in Louisville.Race 8:My first play comes in this MSW event for 2YO fillies at six-furlongs over the main track where I like the chances of second-time starter #4 Seaton Springs. The daughter of Maclean’s Music debuted on October 25 over the challenging one-turn mile configuration at Churchill Downs where she showed good early speed, battled early along the inside, and tired late to finish a solid third. The Kenny McPeek trainee took live support in her first start going off a 7-2, should be fit and primed for a move forward on the turnback to six-furlongs, and retains the services of Jose Ortiz. Expecting a strong run by this Keeneland September ’25 purchase to kick off the late Pick 4.Play: #4 Seaton Springs (9-2 ML)Picks: 4-3-6Race 9:I am not overly creative in this beaten $50k claimer at six-furlongs over the main track where the pace should be honest. This should put class dropper #4 Camp Hale in a perfect spot early under regular rider Brian Hernandez Jr. The son of Mo Town has kept strong company throughout his 14-race career, including taking on strong second-level allowance fields in Kentucky over his last few starts. Trainer Ian Wilkes opts to drop the Whitham Thoroughbreds gelding in for a tag for the first time, which has led to him encountering the softest group he has faced in a while. Both of Camp Hale’s career victories came over this surface last year. He has a huge shot to revisit the Churchill Downs’ winner’s circle later this afternoon.Play: #4 Camp Hale (5-2 ML)Picks: 4-2-8Race 10:My final play of the day comes in the aforementioned featured event at one-mile over the lawn where the pace should be contentious given the presence of #3 Maui Strong and #10 Theismann amongst others. This should bode well for #2 Dr. Agne. The son of Into Mischief takes on older runners for the first time after trainer Cherie DeVaux added blinkers for his two starts this summer at Colonial Dows. The first start after the addition of shades against allowance foes led to a neck victory as the chalk before Dr. Agne raced against the flow in the Old Dominion Derby (G3). They crawled up front that early September day in Virginia, which is unlikely to be the case in this spot. Instead, jockey Jose Ortiz is likely to find a comfortable mid-pack position along the rail early and come with a strong run late. It is not always easy to best a field of veteran older runners in your first try after tackling your own age throughout your career, but Dr. Agne comes in fresh, draws favorably, and attracts Jose for the first time since last year. Hopefully, he does not get over bet due to his human connections.Play: #2 Dr. Agne (8-1 ML)Picks: 2-8-9
