3/5: Aqueduct ($266k C/O)
 

Oversized carryover pot at Aqueduct to kick off the race week with $266k in the coffers and pool likely to more than triple. Card is tricky but approachable with 3 maiden claimers, a bottom level straight tag event and two good OC/ALW's...

Encouraging first race for those hoping for a fair surface...

Quite a ride as far inside as you can get by the Morales kid on the winner... Wow.

Steve,
nice call on Dadaway!
Nice way to start... Good luck!

Thx Rick..

I ended up adding Ommaddon to the play who I thought was a possible upsetter on the comeback instead of singling Dadoway as originally suggested... Good start.

G/L to you and to any that are involved.

man is the rail hot or what..pure devil was toast at the 1/4 pole..then they hit the slew of the str.. nice set up by nyra..:eek:

how many winning pick 6 tickets split up the &1,000,000?

Elixir
 

Would have had the pick 6 had that horse not have gotten "nosed."
Can't wait to pick up my 3 conso's at 74 bucks each....whooo wheeee

One of the stranger races I have ever seen, no way did I think he would win. Was it the rail or did Dominguez somehow just get him to start running again?

That horse looked like he was toast turning for home. I was surprised too when he found another gear.
