Del Mar: Best Bet 8/14

Del Mar Race 7

8 - American Gal

First-time starter, connections of jockey Rafael Bejarano with trainer Bob Baffert, and the quickest works in the field are normally the winning formula for a Del Mar maiden race. American Gal has all the above. Baffert works his horses fast, but a 3F :34 move is something that cannot be ignored, and that is what this filly worked back in July at Los Alamitos. Expect a short price, but also a clear winner once the real running starts in this race. American Gal is the best bet on Sunday's card.
