That was fun yesterday. I rarely push the 'ALL' button, but that 8th was impossible.

Hope some came along.. Paid about 1.5x the parlay.

Funny Steve I always look at your picks not that I typically let it impact me much (respect your opinion as much as anyone but just how I play) but sometimes I’ll take an extra look at some you point out - I saw your turf pick 3 all and thought to myself I don’t think I’ve ever seen him use an all in all the years I’ve been looking at this site…well Yahtzee - wasn’t smart enough to tag along but great work. And that was just a small piece of a handicapping masterclass. Great work sir. Hope to meet you up at Toga this year, almost have a couple times…hope you did really well this weekend. Cheers

DJ.. Thanks a lot. Key to the ALL was the narrow focus on either end of the play with Echo Lane as a single and just the pair of interests in the Kitten's Joy. At the $3 increment, certainly couldn't/wouldn't use 12 runners in middle leg if there needed to be more coverage in those races.

I think recognizing that construction opportunity was the lesson Saturday and it's not something I've done well consistently. As I said on air yesterday, I really took my time writing up the races and building the plays ~ literally 6 hours ~ and it paid off.

See you at SAR! Stop by when I'm broadcasting or wherever you see me.
