Good luck!
Steve

Steve, do you sleep during Derby week?

Anyway, I kind of like the pick 4 and pick 5 opportunities. Good luck!

Moishe..

The fortnight here is a gauntlet, but exhilarating too. My favorite trip of the year and a special responsibility for ATR to bring the Derby to players and fans.

Besides the big multis, some standout spots to deep dive (Churchill, American Turf, Pat Day).. Weather not as good this morning as hoped. Let's have a safe, clean day.

Best of luck!

Derby fav I Want Revenge scratched in 2009 and in sloppy mess Mine That Bird won. History repeats 10 years later.
Of course the 7 was coming down. I bet him.

What did the oaks derby double pay $1573246?

$2072 for $0.50

Edit: Sorry that’s for the p3

That deuce getting beat an inch in the 13th race was tough to swallow.

Brutal for me bud

Even worse was that I thought he held when it was live....replay was ughhhhh

I thought I had it bud

Steve,
Thanks for the push on Clyde's Image in the Turf Classic. Liked the1 underneath so had tri for $1.50.

Great job as usual.

Bill

Bill..

Thanks. Glad you scored! He's becoming a serious horse. That was one of several on the weekend (Got Stormy, Hog Creek Hustle, Upset Brewing, Bell's the One, Concrete Rose) that helped keep things afloat..

Hope everyone did well.. On to Baltimore.
