With our free pick on Friday we will select from the night racing card from Hollywood Park and make a play in the 5th race. It will be a 1 mile turf event for 3 year olds and it has been set with an optional claiming tag of $80,000. With our horse racing pick we will play on #1 Hockley to win. The 5th race at Hollywood Park is scheduled for an 11:57PM Eastern Time post and you can watch it on TVG.
Hockley is ridden by David Flores and is trained by Eoin Harty. This three year old colt was a $560,000 purchase and is by A.P. Indy. He is coming off a win against straight maidens on March 14th on the turf at this distance. He was sent near the lead and wasnt asked to make up ground, as he was forced into doing in his previous races. Hockleys mommy Pennys Fortune won 3 of 10 races on the turf during her racing career. He has a first and a second place finish in two tries at this surface and distance.
Play #1 Hockley to win race 5 at Hollywood Park 3-1 on the Morning Line.
