[Kasept]

Ended Week 5 of Spa session well with improved results closing out Sunday and Monday after week long dry spell. Was unable to capitalize on both successful P4 singles, but caught early and late P3's and a couple of well-priced winners/exactas. Hope you did OK. Meet's final week kicks off with $55k carryover and Del Mar offers a $111k pot...
