Steve puttin in work!!

Thanks for all you do. Good luck today.

In the MMunz (7th), my strong, strong play will be the 3, Naissance Royale

This horse wants to sit back and chill, then bust oopen down the lane and I love to bet gomez when he sits atop a strong closer

12-1 ML and I hope nobody bets this horse

Steve I like your FG pk4. . . it's very similar to mine. .. I really want to single Master Command in the first leg but I just can't pull the trigger. . .

Steve said CS called in earlier to say Liqour Cabinet has scratched!

R9: 1,2,7

Mp5


9/5, 6/4, 7/11/4, 10, 11

Access Agenda Out Of Stream Race 10....oh F.. That Is Open As An Orifice.

No scratches in 4th or 5th at Anita....Race 4- J Court rides #1

race 5.. V Espinoza rides #9

I SUCK at this "5" bet, but cant help but take a swing

A)2,9
B)1,5 (havent believed in "Christmas" since I was a "Kid")
C)1,7 (Got the speed and the closer covered, like the #1 even more now that JCourt, king of the hill, takes the mount)
D)2,11 (Whatchew talken about Leonard? In light, ran decent since shades added 2 back and this guy should love the distance and the grass.....worth a play at 20-1 in this impossible race)
E)4,11 (dont like the fact Flores picks Buddy over the #11 but he will take them as far as he can...#4 should be right there if the 11 fades)


FG Pk4

Ticket I just punched at the track

FG Pick 4 Races 6 - 9 All Stakes

Master Command w/ Naissance Royale, Hendrix, King's Drama and Einstein w/
Get Ready Bertie, Octave, and Appealing Zophie w/ Circular Quay, Liquidity and Imawildandcrazyguy

The scratch of Liquor Cabinet changes things no doubt, I prefered Liquor Cabinet over Master Command

I pressed Naissance Royale and Imawildandcrazyguy

Good luck everyone!

I played two P4s at FG

Pick-4 7,WT,1,5,6,7,9,11,WT,7,WT,2,7
Pick-4 7,WT,1,WT,3,4,7,8,WT,2,7

It's a tough spot for Heat of the Night but I love the prospect of getting him at double digit odds. I'm banking on either Ketchikan or Soaring By throwing up a big race in the La Derby. I'd love 7/1/7/2,7 since that would give me the P4 twice.

I am glad I saw their ad (Fair Grounds ad) in the DRF this morning cause I did not know they had the all stakes pick 4 since it is sandwiched in the middle of the card

all stakes pick 4

7
135
37
126

Here's are my three stabs at the Fairgrounds Pick 4:

Ticket #1. 7 / 9 / 3, 7 / ALL = $16 (for the extra $2 I'll include Slews Tizzy)

Ticket #2. 7 / 9,11 / 3,7,8 / 1,2,4,5,7,8 = $36

Ticket #3. 1,7 / 7,9,11 / 3,4,7,8 / 5,7 = $48 (Just in case MC gets beat)

Total Wager = $100

Good Luck to everyone!

I'm taking a few shots at the FG pick 4 as well.

Good luck everyone.

Well you sold me on Ketchikan, after I looked at his numbers, I just couldn't get away from him. Made him a single on my PK4 ticket.

Imawildandcrazyguy is gonna have to pull the upset to bail me out

will be kicking myself for a while for not using the 1

thought my boy Leonard was gonna wire that bunch at 45-1
