Timonium Picks and Ponderings: August 24, 2025 * The Racing Biz

Race 4: Maiden Special Weight, 2-year-olds, Marries, 4 Furlongs

1. #5– Reerun Table (3-1): She was scratched from her planned debut in Laurel Park in May and eventually returns here; Has a huge win-early profile.
2. #1 EMMA Mermaid (4-1): This also has a win-early pedigree and Jerry Robb likes to win here with 2-year-olds.
3. # 4 – Whataarewedoing (7-5): Brittany Russell -Stagiair makes her fourth career starts on her fourth different track; She has the experience, but does not promise to offer much value.

Race 5: Starter Optional Claiming $ 25,000, 3-year-olds and higher, 6 1/2 Furlongs

1. #6-cloud Without Rain (9-5): He has superior figures, and the addition of blinkers means that he is probably sent for speed.
2. #3– Daddy Yankee (4-1): Easily won out with colonial downs going out and is in improved form.
3. #7-toojos Mojo (3-1): Look for him to make a late move and get a part.

Race 6: Allowance Optional Claiming (N/W2X), 3-year-olds and higher, mares and mares, 6 1/2 furlongs

1. #2-Kilo Road (7-5): Second end against a better field on this state.
2. #3-Proud Divi (1-1): The instructions for Jockey Carlos Lopez must be simple: Send her forward and keep going.
3. #4-firstlady Rosalynn (5-1): Do not do much first of the Mike Trombetta claims last, but has shown a lot of competence in the past and is a logical alternative to the top two.

Race 7: Allowance optional claiming (N/W3x), 3-year-olds and higher, 1 mile

1. #2-onello (8-5): He has a lot of class and a good postal.
2. #4-Secret Zipper (6-1): Won four in a row over the fall and winter, all on gate-to-wire mode; Historically, he needs a race of long dismissals, but his early speed cannot be discounted.
3. #5-Holy Synchronicity (12-1): Defeat a nice group in Charles Town for the last time and should produce a good late kick.

Race 8: Maiden Claims $ 5,000, 3-6 year olds, mares and mares, 4 furlongs

1. #6-Big IILL (1-1): She has shown improvement in her last few starts on grass; Now tries dirt for the first time.
2. #3-Reece’s Drama (6-1): The shorter for her, the better for her; Today’s distance should be in her wheelhouse.
3. #5-New York Lights (9-2): She will be difficult to catch if she can make the early lead without a drama.
