Go 9!

Thanks!! Love that filly!:{>:

Congrats Steve. Right on the ball as usual and at least you get paid a little today.
Just think if you were agressive and singled The Shadow.
Would have knocked down the early P4 and maybe the P6. That's what we dream about.

Thanks for the 9 horse in the 5th today. Was at the casino and tossed a little bet on it before I left, nice to see it hit for a nice score on my way back!

Great picks as always, keep up the great work!

Nice Job today Steve!

I watch a lot of races from the winner's circle..

ADJ, intense, Matt...

Thanks. Was a terrific day all around from what I thought was a strong edition of ATR, through the jumpers, Loyal Shadow and the P6 conso. Hope many did well..

Just back from dinner at Pennell's with the Sciacca Family... Would be thrilled to reprise a good portion of today on Friday!

'night all..

Great day Steve!! Looks like you were on top of it today, congrats!!

Another great day Steve!

Great day, Steve!

Congrats, and hope you keep it rolling:tro:

Congrats yesterday Steve!

Pennell's is one of my favorites

Just have to get the rest of it today! Great work as always.
