Happy Wednesday & National Shower with a Friend Day! 👯🛀🏻
Today, we head to our nation's Grand Canyon State for a very nice 10-race card.
If you're thinking - "I believe the Grand Canyon State is Arizona and isn't their State Fish the Apache Trout," you'd be correct on both.
If you're also thinking - "I should invite some friends over to shower with" -
ummmm - yeah, sure - go for it!
Now - let's get back to today's card.
Our picks will begin in Race # 2, as the first race is for the Quarter Horses, which we do not typically handicap.
Our Best Bet for today comes in R6, a Claiming Race ($4,500) being run at 1 Mile on the Dirt for Fillies & Mare, 3 Yrs. Old & Up. Our pick of R B's Tiger moves down in class for today's race, with strong numbers from trainer Justin Evans in today's conditions. Karlo Lopez will return to the irons after guiding this 4-yr. Old Filles to a Place finish at Turf Paradise on Jan. 25.

Winter is the coldest and loneliest season of the year. With dwindling daylight and Valentine's Day at its heart, February can often leave people feeling dejected and somber. The day injects a bit of humor into the season while also serving to educate people on the benefits of showering in fresh, filtered water (and the effects of chlorine).
