I'm not a good horizontal player so I stuck to what I am comfortable with which is the exacta box.
Juv Colts: used Untamed Domain with the 1, 6,8,12 so that worked out.
Distaff: Loaded up on the Forever Unbridled/PW exacta. ....not so good.
Saturday: keyed Ami's Messa (that's just an angle I use in sprints off synthetic or turf) with 5 horses in exacta boxes. Bar of Gold? Really? That one hurt.
Keyed Grand Jete with Lady Eli and the winner. Should have paid more attention to the numbers which screamed buyer beware. I let the Beverly D impact my decision.
Keyed Om with World Approval, Blackjacket and Ribchester. Thought I could have received a better ride from VanDyke but that's turf racing and perhaps Om just not as good as he was at 4.
Turf: Loved Sadler's Joy and keyed him with the top 3. Ran hard, lost ground as expected and just didn't get there.
Classic: keyed Collected with GR, Arrogate, and West Coast. Thought Collected ran his eyeballs out to chase that beast and still hold second. Cashed for $3,400 which got me just about even.
It was a great day for all of us and hopefully better on the bottom line for most of you.
Good Luck,
Joe B
