Trainer Sam Scolamieri doesn’t start many (4-for-14 in 2018) but when he does, he’s usually live. At Del Mar, the last two years he is 50 percent when starting a horse the first time at the meet like No. 2 Hailey Rachele (5-1) in the seventh race. The mare is coming off a win and tries grass for the first time. Let’s hope she likes it.
