Race 8 Saratoga
 

Steve, SAR Race 8 in the P6 you have 5-6-8-9 but in the P4 4-5-6-9. On purpose?

No.. Fixed it.

great, thanks, you know stuff like that bothers us bean counters. good luck today!

Steve,
I'm putting together a late pk 4 play for today at Toga, and wanted to ask you about the 6th race. It looks like a puzzle to me.

In addition to the 4 you mentioned, any thoughts on the Lukas horse (yesterday on ATR, you discussed Lucas' success 2nd time out, and it appears the horse gets the surfact and distance she wants).

Also, what about the Wesley Ward Kitten's Joy filly trying turf for the 1st time.

Thanks and good luck! Glad to have you back.

I will be singling Sermon of Love today. Just giving a possible auto-toss.:D

SCR'S: http://www.equibase.com/premium/changes/SAR-changes.asp

Very happy to be back.. Thx.

Not sure about this DWL 2nd timer... I thought the A. Dutrow stretchout was a preferable price inclusion. And though the Ward KJ baby may like the added ground, it seems to me to be a 'running out of options' move by WW. If his babies don't win first or second, they usually don't win any time soon.

The 2-6 seem a cut above...

G/L!!

steve in the 8th race i think southside babe is the 4 horse

Thx for the heads up Tony... Used the odds as the number.

I thought I was doing great leading off the pk4 with a $21 horse, and then.............so I was wondering if they could go ahead and add a jump race in the later pk4 so they could f*ck me up there too.

Saratoga program in the trash, get out DM program............

the 4 in the last at delmar looks great on paper and on the track..20-1 right now..will see how he goes..
up da track..
