Magic Man’s Friday Selections from the Fair Grounds

Before I delve into my look at Friday’s selections, I wanted to let you guys know that as we hit the month of December I will give you my year in review of horse racing but I will also look ahead to 2019. I also plan on doing another expose’ on horse racing. It promises to open eyes, that is for sure. I do not claim to know any more than anyone else but when I write these types of articles I do not use fluff or speculate. I write what I know and have trustworthy people to make sure we have the facts straight.

Stay tuned for that but now it is time to get into what I try to do every day we have racing – pick winners. Here we go with our first of 4 Starlight racing programs of the season.

My Selections
1-Tears for Paula-edge in a close finale

2-Queen E-figures to also fire a good effort

3-Haley’s Court-another logical contender too

That will do it for my look at the Friday card here at the Fair Grounds. I will be back to give you my look at the Saturday card so until then as always may your winners be plentiful and your wallets be fat.
