Good luck!

Thanks and good luck Steve.

The pace scenario for the Tropical Park Turf looks like it could really hinder A Thread of Blue and help Exulting so I’m with you 100% there. Also going to take a shot on a bomb there and include Gunnison who ran into some trouble last time out. That should be a nice betting race.

I feel the same way about Spiced Perfection later in the day at Santa Anita. Definitely some value today. Hopefully we can all cash some nice tickets.

Gunnison scratched

Oh darn. I checked the scratches and totally missed that. Thanks.

Steve, solid work. Saffie firing on all cylinders. He basically gave Ny Traffic on ATR.

Thanks Steve for the tip on Violent City in the 4th, probably would have over looked him.

Great job Steve.

THX Gus.. Until indicated to the contrary, appears Joseph has to be taken seriously. He sure made it clear on air last week that he was excited about Ny Traffic.

My pleasure Jax.. Violence hitting at a 20% clip first out and just enough worktab hint from Donald Harris at PMM to reach for the price.



Thanks Moishe! Fun day. Though it didn't return a fortune ($400+), I'd still like the P5 back. Didn't get her at all, but still was silly to relegate Magic Star to a C.
