i'll go with what i consider the 3 best pedigrees for this race, sunriver, jazil, and steppenwolfer...i'll box the 3 for the ex and tri.
we'll leave the forms for another day. |
Quote:
A generous compliment and the sentiment is greatly appreciated.. Am equally glad you've 'signed' on to DT.. Good luck tomorrow.. SB |
Steve, Wish you good luck tomorrow. I seem to agree with most accept, I really Like Steppen alot tomorrow. Taking a big shot on him. I wouldn't listen to anyone else except you or Andy S. Keep up the great work. Oh and we had another fun night last night Down Under "IAA" .

way to go stevo..very nice .....sacred light gets in the top 3 in mine and the 11/1 in race 12...pulpiteer is ready to back up his breedeing..i hope..

Thanks Steve and we're pretty much looking at the same horses.
Good Luck All Hooves give me a call your cell is blocking My pic 4 starting out of the 8th and it's cheap is 9/2389/248/27 |
Deputy Glitters has to be a fan favorite in that he runs beyond his pedigree. i love his true grit and he can win because he's a thoroughbred in the finest sense of the word. i'll support him today, he's earned it.

Dix- I think Cacique hangs. Hoss is plutonium for me when it comes to win bets. One of us will be under the bed after the race. |
A lot of cat hair under here. I really should try to vacume.

Good luck Dell, geter done |
Steve,you are lucky you got to spend time with the Belmont winner.They said he was "SLOW." They said all he won was his maiden.They said his late close in the Wood was a crap suck up parasite job. Little guy sent them all to bed tonight. Guess he was a little better than they all thought.Gee,he's so painfully "SLOW" that he got 4th in the Derby,and just took down the Belmont.

Get To Know Dixie
As usual ... Dixie takes it to the bank.
Hey folks ... those of you who are unfamiliar with the fabulous Mr. Dixie ... here's my word of advice --- Get familiar ... fast! Quote:

I liked Jazil, but have never made a bet in my life!!!!! Maybe I can learn though.
Do you pronounce his name Jaz*i*l or Jaz*ee*l, though? I'm confused! |

Quote:
Scuds, Ended a long day at Kieran's barn with a very happy crew, Rick Nichols of Shadwell and his wife, Steve Haskin and the winner... Jazil came out as if he hadn't run.. He remains a delight to be around though he has matured considerably since Louisville even, and is more aggressive than he used to be. Nichols said Sh. Hamdam will race Jazil as long as he remains healthy, and certainly through next year. "That's what we do.. We race them", he told me last night. Couldn't be happier for Kieran, as great a guy as there is in the game, and of course Fernando Jara, who yesterday outshone MANY more experienced riders who have botched this unique race over the years. A life-changing 2:30minutes for Jara... |
Jara's ride was stellar, good for him!!!
Steve did you get the message I just left on your cell? |
you know I tend to bet these races on sentiment--that's why I usually lose--BUT I was all over Jazil yesterday (knew his mother when she was a yearling) and sentiment paid well!

DELAWARE PARK: Tuesday 6/13 (R5-9)
The Belmont card was a mixed bag at best Saturday, as two horses in particular destroyed any chance we all had at making money...
Our Pick Four play featured Gorella (Just a Game). Songster (Stephens), Hello Liberty (Acorn) and Jazil (Belmont), and Bushfire's gutty performance against Liberty dashed the $900+ return. In the Belmont itself, my obstinance regarding Bluegrass Cat AGAIN cost the trifecta. Running 1-3-4 with my Derby and Belmont tri boxes was a tad frustrating. Hope you did well... More on the Belmont later today on Derby Trail and on "At the Races and Beyond" this evening when Steve Haskin offers his Triple Crown retrospective and Andy Serling delivers his insights on the big weekend at Big Sandy... SELECTIONS -- Delaware Park (6/13/06) Races 5-9 (P4, P3's) A really good set of races at Delaware Park today including the 7th which may as well be a Gr.

Hitting the P4 would have made the difference with a $160+ return... Needed to have gone three deep in the first leg to get it which would have pushed the wagers to $276 and the return to $410.. Good luck.. Steve |
nice pick in the 8th with Go Robin
sp |
I hit that Pick-4! I did go 3- deep in the first leg and only used The Student and Crafty Schemer in the 7th. --I really like The Student today(man, her just got up!!).
Nice picks Steve! |
Quote:
Zip, Good job.. I thought the firsters would be "there", but was surprised they were "so there"... Had I suggested a different single, it would have been Go Robin who i absolutely LOVED today... But I wanted to cover with the prices there. Today could have been monsterous, but the faves came to run... |
Quote:
Yeah, both firsters showed good works.. in that field they made sense to use. I used Go Robin and Bend a Little in the last. I went fairly deep in the 2nd leg (including having the 3 who scratched--so I was "ok" with having the favorite win) |
BELMONT: Wed., June 14 (R4-9)
It was a pretty strong effort at Delaware Park Tuesday, with 2 on top winners, 2 second choice winners and third tab winner in the 5 races we capped… Those keyed 4 exactas, 3 trifectas and the late Pick 3, and if you added the 2nd selection in the opener of the Pick 4 to my single, you caught the Pick Four as well. The prices weren’t especially juicy, but we’ll take that kind of day happily. Results are below… Hope you did well.
Wednesday’s carryover is $45,000 at Belmont, but it’s a murderous sextet of heats and I don’t know if I’d suggest playing it. The first, second and sixth legs are Maiden Claiming affairs, two state bred, and there are few “standouts”.

If this rain from Alberto forces me to leave work early today and I have to go home, lay around and play the races all afternoon, I am gonna be HIGHLY UPSET!!!:eek:
|
One slight change..
Scratched Little Bit O'Gold in the BEL 4th.. Otherwise the selections are "as is"..
|
big time tri in the 5th with the 7-10-8...I didn't bet the tri, but I did have WP on the 7.
well done Stevo. |
I REALLY hope he played this pick six ticket, $22 horse, and a $25 horse to start it off...
|
the 10 hole is less tha 2perc on the widner..could not use him..and he fed up my 3/5...doh...great capping steve...your the man
|
If anyone told me this play would be live for the conso I wouldn't have believed it.. Haven't seen the 'will pays', but my guess is the 6 gets hit..
<$100 P6 Play: 4:1-8 5: 7-9 6: 4-7 7: 1-2-7 8: 1e-2 9: 3 2x2x2x3x2x1 = 48 x $2 = $96 |
Well done. I was all over Tactically Fein myself but I would never have had Smoke Diamond.
|
Nice call on top with Fein. Nice price too.
|
Pick Six paid $165,540.00.
|
I'm a Goer in the 6th prevents this from being an All-time kind of day... Destroys the multis (6, 4, Slam) with run up the rail...
Three tris though ($815.50, $25.50, $115.75) that make the day a keeper.. But boy.. |
BELMONT: Thurs., June 15 (R4-9)
It was, by any definition, a VERY good day... One race, Belmont's 6th, stood between us and one of our best days ever Wednesday. Four winners from our first or second choices, one third choice winner, produced three trifectas including a $1,600 ($2) bonanza in the 5th...
Only I'm a Goer eluded us Wednesday when Gary Contessa's charge found room up the rail. That result ruined the P4, Grand Slam and P6 conso... That's how narrow the gap is between a good day and an unforgettable one. On a day where we thought the Pick Six would be a foolhardy investment, we suggested a cheap $96 ticket which caught 4 of 6... The winning play returned $166,000... Details of yesterday are below today's selections. Thursday we are right back at Belmont before shifting gears towards Saturday's huge Stephen Foster Day stakes card at Churchill... Hope you did well... The ammunition was there!
