Bauer's Bets: Fast & Firm at Tampa

There are 9 races on the card for Friday. We had only one bet on Wednesday and lost $22. The deficit for the year is $19. We will try to improve that today. In Race 4, MARRAKECH (1) may be worth a bet. His form has been a bit dull lately, but he should wake up here, dropping to face non-winners of one in six months for the first time. The powerful Gerald Bennett barn scores at a 24% clip with this move. Ademar Santos has the call. The bet is $10 to win on MARRAKECH (1) and a $2 exacta box with the choice and SNUGGLY BEAR (4) and CHINA PRINCE (6). 1,4,6. Total Investment $22. GOOD LUCK
