Russell Baze at Oak Tree Saturday
 

Just my random check of results and entries found Russell Baze a missing person for Baymeadows tomorrow.

I would like to go for the Baymeadows close for Sunday, cause they are giving away lots of great stuff! But, I've got these pesky Raiders-Texans tickets I feel obliged to use as a Raiders season ticket holder.

Anyhow, it looks like Russell Baze has two late day mounts in the California Cup series at Oak Tree tomorrow.

A Jeff Bonde horse in the Juvenile, and a William Morey horse in the Classic.

No more baseball, and college football a little on the lackluster side for tomorrow.

So, Oak Tree racing it shall be.

Hmmm this has nothing to do with Russel Baze but does everyone think Imagine is a lock in that turf race? Or does anyone give Memorette a good chance?

Or how about the Somethinaboutlaura and Bai and Bai race? Is anyone going to beat those 2 for the top 2 slots?

I dunno, but I'm in the mood for some wagering action tomorrow, and Oak Tree at 1st glance appears to be a good option.

I do think Hollendorfer gets a win tomorrow, and Somethinaboutaura is one of his three chances....

And don't forget P Val at Zia on Saturday.

I need to get out more, apparently.

Zia?

Pat Valenzuela
 

OK, that was a long way to go, but thanks.

So Penn National now has ownership of a track in New Mexico with a 49 day meet, and Pat Valenzuela has a few mounts there today.

I've been out of the loop on the Pat V saga. Is today his first time back or something?

Yes NM granted him a license. Cali has a minimum weight requirement which he has not met yet.

Russell wins on both his mounts...

I have been watching him ride at NoCal and he has a way about never giving up on the race. He keeps riding when most riders quit. I have to admire the daily effort for so many years.

Just sucks he has to some to So Cal to ever get a price on him.

You're right,but it was EASY to pound him and Gomez in the 10th race exata today. Got me healthy.

Congrats.


Unfortunately for me, I was trying to hook Baze and Talamo in the 10th.

It was a fun day of racing, just the same.

We should of known that K.Kannel had a live one when he didn't stay home with Russell gone for the day. OOPS.

Speaking of Kyle Kaenel, he just recently got married to Russell Baze's oldest daughter... he's 20, she's 26 - good luck to them!

hmm...watch the raiders, or go to bay meadows.
i'd go to the track!
