The Friday program begins with an early daily double that doesn’t offer much in the way of value. In the opener, #4 Summer Movie drops from the Native Diver Handicap all the way down to a $25,000 claimer; who knows what kind of shape he’s in. The same can be said for #6 El Martillo, another ex-classer who continues to plummet following a series of dull races. This race might be best left alone.
