A reasonable profit went on yesterdays books, another zero could have been added with some better wagering than handicapping! The pick 4 was destroyed with the scratch of my single and 3 out of the Lake George changed the complexion of the race. The last race the back # ouchie hung on as he and the 14 & 15 all staggered home in a Finger Lakes like finale while the 10 at 35/1 gave the optical allusion of flying through the lane. He was the only horse in the field running at the end at all. Asmussen claimed the winner, I guess will see him in for 5K at Lone Star down the road.
1st PETA's favorite trainer had a dismal Belmont meet, lots of 2nd's and 3rd's, he knows how to get'em ready first out. Hundred Years is out of Misremembered's
first crop, 1 for 2 so far and his dam ran some reasonable sprint numbers.
2nd Adirondack Dancer & English Minister run fast numbers but never win, Artie Crasher has a forward move in him at a price and Speeding Comet looks like the key to me with rider switch to JJ.
3rd Life Imitates Art will have the Brownies dancing on Union Ave.
Late Pick 4:
I'm counting on TGJB to provide some clarity for the 8th race.
Taghleeb will be favored, Market Outlook has a forward move and will take Chad money, Plainview is a Spa specialist with the best back #'s, I can also make a case for the 5,6,10,11 on numbers and patterns all at 10/1 plus?
The Sanford:
He's Comin in Hot is moving into stake number territory and Cocked and Loaded has been turning heads in the mid west since the spring.
The Diana:
Tepin and Stephanie is it for me, I'm hardly a proponent of exacta's paying 10/1 or less. I lost enough money at the trotters on them in my misguided youth but this one may be that logical.
11th:
1,2,3 and out for me.
Good luck and looking forward to our first Mensa meeting of the season,
