I have a stupid newbie question on these last two races of the week.
It's obvious that the figs are superior and I asked Barry in fact last week
to review if possible a horse named Rebellion for an example of a decent priced winner on the turf that I don't see any other way to get with out JB's #.

While it's obvious that Jerry generates figures that are invaluable for bomb gimmicks, being an old pace oriented, spot player, a dinasaur if you will, it seemed to me that Dreaming of Anna was dismissed an underlay with no regard for her front dominance and that while Shakespeare was "the most likely winner", coming from as far off the pace as he would on a track that had been carrying speed, with Grabby Gomez, at a distance that is not his best, around one turn for the first time, he was dicey. I did finally bet since he held at 2/1 until after I had bet, late, but thought that a skinny deal, and while I posted here that I liked Kip Deville second, and though he would throw a 1 at least, the exacta was too thin I thought to play.

From people that are inclined to spread and tackle supers, trifectas, etc.,and having heard JB mention his own p6 play, I wonder does anyone but me still care about value on the front end, unless it's student council or one of his ilk? Take pity on a old guy that lives so remotely and in such a flag waving are of the coutry I have lived here for over 4 years after moving from Tahoe and told no one what I do in this office all day. So, a lonesome old man. Looking for the off chance of a little indulgence here, EVEN THOUGH I USED TO DO BUSINESS downtown and should know I will get a little run for the sad assed way this sounds.

You guys have ruined win betting.
not quite kidding.

Evolution killed dinasours,too
