Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as we get ready for a turf-filled, full-field day at Del Mar.

If it’s Thanksgiving weekend, then there can only be one thing on everyone’s mind: next year’s Kentucky Derby winner. Of course, that is meant facetiously. Didn’t it seem like the Derby was run a couple months ago?

Anyway, this weekend marks the first Kentucky Derby Futures Pool. It ends on Sunday at 3 p.m. PST. The key word here is “pool,” meaning the final odds will be determined on Sunday afternoon. If you prefer likely better and fixed odds and more selections, you are much smarter to go through Las Vegas or overseas. But that’s not always as easy as betting through your ADW on your couch.

Contributor Ron Flatter is the expert on Derby futures, so we’ll leave the deep analysis to him. Instead, it seemed like a good time to see who are the favorites for the 2021 Kentucky Derby. The odds are morning line and actual betting has changed them.

— Essential Quality (10-1, trainer Brad Cox). Winner of all three starts including the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile.

— Highly Motivated (15-1, Chad Brown). Winner of two of three including the Nyquist at Keeneland.

— Life Is Good (15-1, Bob Baffert). Won only start by 9 ½ lengths at Del Mar.

— Get Her Number (20-1, Peter Miller). Winner of two of three including the American Pharoah at Santa Anita.

— Hot Rod Charlie (20-1, Doug O’Neill). Second in BC Juvenile, won one of five starts.

— Jackie’s Warrior (20-1, Steve Asmussen). Won first four races but a disappointing fourth in BC Juvenile.

— Keepmeinmind (20-1, Robertino Diodoro). Still a maiden in three starts but third in BC Juvenile.

— Pickin’ Time (20-1, Kelly Breen). Won three of five including Grade 3 Nashua at Aqueduct.

— Savile Row (20-1, Baffert). Winner of only race by 1 ¼ at Del Mar.

There are other horses at 30-1 and 50-1 and, of course, the highly likely favorite to come out of the first pool “All other Three Year Olds” at 6-5.

Del Mar review

Friday’s feature was the Grade 2 $200,000 Hollywood Turf Cup for horses going 1 ½ miles on, you guessed it, the turf. Arklow, a classy 6-year-old with top-notch jockey Joel Rosario ran a perfect race to win by a half-length. It looked easier than the margin. Arklow tracked through the second time around the track, made his move on the far turn and eased to a lead near the top of the stretch and won from there.

Arklow paid $5.80, $3.40 and $2.80. Laccario was second, and Say the Word finished third.

Blake Cox (assistant trainer and son of winning trainer Brad Cox): “It kind of worked out the way we had drawn it up. Joel [Rosario] was able to get a real good stalking position and then finish strong. What’s next will be up to Jerry Crawford and Donegal Racing, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the Pegasus World Cup Turf is on the radar. ”

Joel Rosario (winning jockey): “He broke well and we got a good spot. I stepped on the brakes a little bit because I was comfortable where we were. I saved ground with him, then moved up a little bit outside. I could tell we were going slow, so I felt OK being closer with him. He was running good. When we turned for home, I knew he was a fighter and I knew he’s be tough to beat. He finished strong. He’s a good horse.”

Del Mar preview

Saturday is a pretty good day of racing on Del Mar’s nine-race card with a 12:30 first post. There are three graded stakes all on the turf. Five of Saturday’s races are on the turf and there are three allowance races in addition to stakes. The field sizes are amazing.

The first stakes is the Grade 3 $100,000 Jimmy Durante Stakes for 2-year-old fillies going a mile on the turf. Fluffy Socks is the 5-2 morning-line favorite for trainer Chad Brown and jockey Irad Ortiz, Jr. Fluffy Socks has won two of four races and finished second by a nose in a stakes at Belmont last out. The second favorite, at 5-1, is Bay Storm for Jonathan Thomas and Joel Rosario. She won her second start last out to break her maiden. She ships in from Belmont. Post is around 2:29 p.m.

The Grade 2 $200,000 Seabiscuit Handicap is the second stakes of the day for horses going 1 1/16 miles on the turf. Flavius is the 5-2 favorite for Brown and Ortiz. This lightly raced 5-year-old has won three of eight lifetime and is coming off a fifth in the Grade 1 Shadwell Turf Mile at Keeneland. He has never won a graded stakes. Anothertwistafate is the second choice at 4-1 for Peter Miller and Rosario. He won the Lonacres Mile last out at Emerald Downs after a 16-month layoff. Post is around 3:27 p.m.

The Grade 1 on Saturday’s card is the $300,000 Hollywood Derby, which moved over from Hollywood Park in 2014. It’s 1 1/8 miles for 3-year-olds. Decorated Invader is the 3-1 favorite for Christophe Clement and Rosario. He has won five of his nine lifetime races, but has a second and fifth in his last two starts. Smooth Like Strait is the second choice at 7-2 for Mike McCarthy and Umberto Rispoli. He has three of his four lifetime races and is coming off a win in the Twilight Derby at Santa Anita. It’s the last race of the day with a 4:25 p.m. post.

Here are the field sizes, in order: 11,8, 10, 7, 13, 11, 13, 10, 13.

Bob Ike’s DM pick of the day

EIGHTH RACE: No. 8 Abusive Gary (15-1)

Taking a shot in this Cal-bred allowance sprint with a horse returning from the Bay Area. Comes off a runner-up try against open allowance company for trainer Leobardo Rivera in a race where he broke sharply but was guzzled off the pace behind the leaders, then finished as well as possible to be second at a big price. He is a three-time winner, likes this track and is drawn well outside. Not sure it will be enough to beat the favorites but he should outrun his morning line price in here.

Friday’s results: Say the Word (6-1) lagged far back off a moderate pace in turf marathon, was given a lot to do turning for home, then flew late but couldn’t get to the other two logical Eastern invaders, who ran 1-2. He might develop into the top turf marathon runner on the West Coast if he stays here.

Ciaran Thornton’s DM pick of the day

FIRST RACE: No. 10 U.S Danger (12-1)

U.S Danger from this far outside post will have to be sent early and that should be no problem for a horse who has gone gate to wire wins in the last two races for trainer Jonathan Wong. The first seven races for this horse were on dirt even though the dam has three turf winners from six starters. First time turf in early October from an outside post position saw a three-length win. Last out in late October saw a six-length win. Lightbulb moment for a horse who wanted turf all along? This trainer has won 31% when his horse won last out. We are getting a great 12-1 value price to start the day.

Friday’s result: Helen Marie broke slow again but this time had no late kick, no anything and finished far back.

Chris Wade’s LA pick of the day

EIGHTH RACE: No. 6 Eagles Royal Dynasty (6-1)

He will be in for a solid barn that can pop with a price. He’s a big-bodied runner who has a tendency to run in zigzag fashion, but he has shown the ability to post competitive numbers for this event with trouble plus track variant factored in. He had a much better than looked runner-up effort 22 nights ago against a well deserving winner Jess Good Corona and I love how strong of a run he put together after the gap. He followed with a quality finish and a promising gallop out — two factors that gives me confidence in pushing him at a nice price.

YENG AGAIN away quickly from the outside, stalked behind the leader up the backstretch, applied pressured into the turn but could not keep pace and chased two wide to the stretch, drew alongside the leader once again at the eighth pole and drove clear. PORT SAINT JOE chased the speed from inside through the turn, finished well along the fence and earned the place. KALON bumped from the outside leaving the gate, raced off the pace in the two path, angled in upper stretch, rallied and missed second. EKIN sped to the front then crossed over to the inside, inched away around the turn, challenged at the eighth pole, lost command nearing the sixteenth pole and yielded late. ABSOLUTE UNIT saved ground to the stretch, angled out in the drive, finished with a mild response but needed more. EXPLOSIVE stalked the pace between rivals, two wide and outside a rival into the stretch and lacked further response. HALLOWED GIFT knocked into rival at the start, traveled three wide in range around the bend and into the stretch and weakened in the lane. BUSHIDO'S WAY steadied early, dropped to the back of the field, took the turn two wide and proved no menace. FORM A SQUARE (GB) broke in and bumped rival, chased four wide into the turn then three wide into the stretch, came out a bit into the drive then drifted inward and had little left.

OFFSHORE AFFAIR away quickest at the start, dueled for the lead around the first turn then dropped back into a stalking position, challenged again around the far turn and headed rival at the five-sixteenths pole, took a short lead shortly after, battled down the stretch with EL HUERFANO and finished strong along the inside. EL HUERFANO dueled for the lead from outside through the first turn then cleared rival on the backstretch, showed the way to the far turn, met challenger around that bend, lost command past the five-sixteenths pole, fought back into the lane and stayed on gamely to prove second best. ANTITHETICAL stalked off the inside, asked at the five-sixteenths pole, chased the top pair three wide into the lane and proved no match in the late stages. IT'S FITTING lost footing at the start, traveled off the rail to the stretch, shifted out then back in near the eighth pole and lacked a rally. FRIDAY'S AT SHADY settled off the pace, saved ground around the final turn and was never a factor.
