Wednesday's (9-3-08) 10-race closing day card from Del Mar features the Grade 1 Del Mar Futurity, but I will look elsewhere for the horse of the day.
The 7th race is the $80k Pirate's Bounty Handicap for three-year-olds and up traveling six furlongs over Polytrack, and with a lively pace expected, #12 BULLSBAY (20-1) is my off the pace Horse du Jour.
BULLSBAY was last seen winning a flat mile entry level race here, and he has crossed the line 2nd in all three of his sprint starts.
Kruljac is 32% at the current meet and 21% with this type of layoff runner, and this one can fire a fresh shot.
Versatile son of Tiznow consistently earns quality late pace figs, and Espinoza rides him well.
Day 43 Del Mar Horse du Jour: #12 BULLSBAY (race 7).
Day 42 Del Mar Horse du Jour Saucey Evening (7.80-1) was moving with eventual winner Stardom Bound, but while the latter was clear on the outside, my horse of the day was stuck in traffic along the inner portion of the track, and she ended up a better than appears 7th.
Day 41 Del Mar Horse du Jour MADEO sat the right stalking trip en route to a $23.60 upset in the Grade 2 Del Mar Derby.
My Stats 25-2-5-2 (-20.20)
Meet-To-Date Statistics: 41-3-7-3 (-44.40)

This horse went off at 7-2...from a 20-1 morning line? Absurd.
