What no B cubed or Bogey's Best Bet for Arlington Million Day!!!!

Who are you really and what have done to the man who used to have theme music for his ATR spots?

What was his theme music?

Doc, in probably the most contenious race of the day (R9 - Beverly D) - Acoma is a great price at anywhere near her ML odds, which I think is right on the money. The extra ground will only help her chances. BEST BET

Theme song?

will the races stay on turf today?

Sun is out now but still 30% chance of rain. I'd say 95% Yes.

The course would have to be under water to take the G1's OFF the Turf.

We are screwed, I am on Acoma also I think now. I've decided to toss all the horses out of Tuscan Evening's last race, should be an interesting day

The only thing we need is for PG to join us and then we are definitely up the creek without a paddle.

That's the approach I'm taking with Eclair de Lune and really have no idea why everyone is on her so much. I understand it'd be a feel good story if Duchossois wins the race but my feel good story would be cashing the Pick 4.

NT

don't usually have time to play a whole card... but today I put a little effort into it... Please consider these ponies today at AP on millions day... feeling pretty good about it... Have a great day at the windows folks...

Devil May Care

Mr Chicago, any reason you dont like Just As Well in the Million. Thanks as always,Dave.

Note: Leparoux picks up the mount on Acoma with the scratch of Rainbow View

Dave, I don't like him on top, but would consider using him underneath. Good Luck Today

Wasn't there a period back when something like Sweet Georgia Brown via some solo whistling that made me think Globetrotters was used.....I am talking like 2006 or so....

I may have the wrong song but back when the show had more folks on air he used to announce you with some tune....I may be wrong about SGB but there was something to announce your segment was starting.

Back in the JJ days I believe it was something like "the breeze". I'm the last person to talk about music, so I couldn't even tell you who the band was.
