Del Mar, Horse racing

Del Mar opinions for Thursday, Aug. 16

FIRST RACE
Takeo Squared
Leadville
Kid Koil
LONG SHOT: Nice Haircut
==
SECOND RACE
TIDAL EFFECT (best bet)
Impression
Ayacara
LONG SHOT: John and Montan
Trainer William Morey has been good to me this summer and he comes right back with No. 3 Tidal Effect (7-2) in the second race. The gelding broke his maiden in his last race over this track and moves up to face winners. His late kick should be an asset in this group. Morey is 45 percent the last two years when horses are making their second start of the meet and he’s 50 percent with horses going around two turns.
