Week Five, Day Two
Building up [Aug. 24th, 2006|11:04 pm]
You can feel the tension mounting as we get closer and closer to the big day. Today was fairly slow, and was my kinda day.. Just enough customers to keep me from being bored, but not so many that I'm overwhelmed.. I'd be very shocked if tomorrow wasn't at least 25% busier. Barry tells me that Ace is gonna be my wingman this Saturday.. Great, they give me the dude that can't even see over the counter.. Nah.. Ace is my man, I just have to figure out how the hell I'm gonna organize ****.. That's not really my strong suit.
Started out on Saturday's pick four and pretty much gonna go balls to the wall and hope for the best. Bernardini will be a single on every ticket.. I'm not pulling any sissy ****. If he goes down, so to will I.. I don't think he'll disappoint me.
I'm still incredibly torn on whether I wanna cut out early.. I'd love to stick it out for the whole meet.. If only school got pushed back a week.. Ugh..
Had three of four in today's pick four and made the mistake of singling Cherokee Jewel.. She was a big flop. Tomorrow, I'll probably **** around with a couple of cheap tickets.. Sky High Flier, Battle Chant, Manchu Prince and Fleet Indian all look like solid singles, with SHF and FI being my most confident ones.
Watch out for Weaver's babies, especially on the grass.. He's been doing VERY well with his 2-year-olds, and I don't think the public has caught on just yet.
Back tomorrow with as much Travers **** as I can come up with.
