Horse Racing picks for Parx race track on Monday, August 22: Love (and victory) In The Air

Horse Racing on dirt at Santa Anita

There is plenty of great horse racing across America on Monday, including at Parx race track. We have been in form with our picks for a long time, making a profit of +274 units with our race selections to our recommended stakes dating back to August 5, 2021. Let’s keep it rolling! Here are our best bets for today’s action at Parx.

3:15 pm Parx (Race 6) – Love In The Air 5/2 (2-star play)

She has shown good form of late, following up an impressive ten length allowance optional claiming success over six furlongs on the main track with two stakes placings on turf including when runner-up on soft ground over this trip at Penn National on her penultimate start. She placed third over this track and trip subsequently and with a top jockey in Paco Lopez retaining the ride for handler John Servis, the daughter of Constitution looks up to registering her first stakes success. 

4:19 pm Parx (Race 8) – The Critical Way 6/5 (2-star play)

The winner of two of his three starts at this venue, the son of Tizway was the winner of a stakes contest over five furlongs at Monmouth Park back in May. He subsequently faded late on when three lengths fourth over half-a-furlong further at the same venue the following month and was unable to dominate when fifth over the same track and trip last time out. A drop in trip here is a positive and the eight-year-old is taken to make all. 

4:51 pm Parx (Race 9) – Flor de Sombra 2/1 (2-star play)

The daughter of budget sire Social Inclusion made an impressive start to her racing career when delivering a seven-and-three-quarter-length victory in a five-and-one-half-furlong maiden special weight contest here last month. She showed good form in the mornings since including when delivering a 46.31 four furlong breeze here last week and having made all the running on debut looks likely to employ similar tactics with trainer Guadalupe Preciado looking to improve on his impressive 24% strike-rate (17/72) at this meeting.
