Horse Racing Best Bets for Thursday 5/18/23

According to numberFire Racing's projections, these are the best bets to make today at FanDuel Racing.

#4 Twice Smitten – Belmont Park, R3 (4:07 p.m. EST)

Twice Smitten is weighted to go well and should make a bold show. Beaten just a head on second start for this barn last time, she can gain quick compensation here. Vallarand has gone to a barn that improve their recruits off a claim and is also likely to be thereabouts. Trade Secret is another who demands consideration. Bet now at FanDuel

#4 Danville – Hawthorne, R6 (5:45 p.m. EST)

Danville will be hard to beat on these terms and is the selection. His barn has a good record here and this represents a good opportunity. Moment is in decent nick at present and should go close chasing the hat-trick. Lavender Earl took a back in the right direction last time and can’t be ruled out. Bet now at FanDuel

#2 Papa Rocket – Hawthorne, R7 (6:12 p.m. EST)

Papa Rocket gets class relief here and should make a bold bid to resume winning ways. Follow The Signs can’t be discounted having joined a barn with a good record in these types of races. West Warpath can see out the 1-2-3. Bet now at FanDuel
