2/25: Gulfstream (Late P4)
Third excellent Saturday in a row at Gulfstream as the 1. or 2. tabs take the late P4 to the tune of $450.80 ($1). Top selections Twilight Meteor ($15.00) in the Hallandale Beach and Jambalaya ($16.20) in the GPBCH combined with 'must use' second choice odds-on chalk Trendy Lady ($3.40) and Most Distinguished ($4.00) for the quality payday. And the GPBCH was a nice score over and above the P4 with the Superfecta returning $729.80 and the Tri $147.50.
Later at Fair Grounds, the P4 was a miss with a nose beat in the 7th and head beat in the 10th the difference between a winning play and losing one... Hope you did well on the day..
The Magna 5 was an excersize in frustration with the middle leg (SA 4th) being captured by formless Barry Abrams' Christiana's Heat ($14.00) who I didn't include. And even with the scratch of Legs Thatdont Quit, my alternate would have been Victory's Lady who missed by a close head..
Carryover at Santa Anita today which we will glance at, but in the meantime, here's a look at Sunday's GP action with two more stakes on the card...
