Derby / Oaks locks and longshots
 

For the sake of using a horse who isn't 6/5 on the m/l (although I do think Wise Dan is the lock of the weekend), I'll go with...

lock - Birdlover in the Edgewood

longshot(s) - Falling Sky in the Derby, Princess of Sylmar in the Oaks

Who wants to go next?

Dreaming of Julia is a cinch

sentimental lock- Rumor


longshots-Optimizer and Frac Daddy

Thought about playing a pick 5 tomorrow because I initially thought I could single Rumor. Second guessing myself though...0-2 at 7F is that a fluke or can it be excused?

Please note I said "sentimental lock". My cattledog in my avatar is named Rumor.:)

I remember reading somewhere Mandella saying if Rumor feels like running, she usually wins. I'm hoping she feels like running Saturday.

DOJ :{>: locking in on her

Oaks plays!

Ok, but don't talk about her too much. Bad karma, y'know what I mean ?

Definitely a longshot, but I keep seeing Java's War weaving thru traffic to key a huge exacta. Good luck to all!

Anyone have a good longshot for tomorrow?

Derby/Oaks locks and longshots
 

I don't expect anything like the 15/1 ML on POLITICALLYCORRECT in the 9th, but I do expect a big closing effort off the layoff for Ward/Rosario. The pace in here should be blazing, and Joel will be roaring down the lane.

:$::$::$::$:

Wow congrats to you and what seems like half the board who are alive in the multi's.:$:
In the Humana Distaff Holiday Soiree has a shot. In the exacta in all of her dirt sprints except for the first start of her career she's run well over the track, has a win and three 2nd's from four starts at the distance and her last race is alot better than it appears at first glance. Her class can be questioned as she has not hit the board in her three graded races but I'll forgive her for those as they were routes against fillies who have handled others in this field.

Win/Place and backwheel her in the exacta will be my wager.

Good luck today to everyone alive in the DD and P-3:tro:

Some Price Ideas

R5) 5 Brazilian Court
R7) 9 Holiday Soriee
R8) 10 Stopshoppingmaria
R10) 3 Optimizer
R11) 12 Itsmyluckyday

I was a huge fan of Lawyer Ron (RIP :( ) it would be so great if Itsmyluckyday runs big today.

Overanalyze ...... for a HUGE score!!! :D

I think Palace Malice outruns his odds today.
Don't know if that will be good enough to win but I used him heavy in exotics

Woo-hoo! :tro: :tro:
