Two at Toga (2025)
Why not?
7/3/25: Best Bet Race 10 #5 Quiet Confidence 8/1 I guess she wanted turf all along because I had that last race really fast/impressive and I think if she doesn't regress off the effort will be very tough to beat in here. Interesting field here, a lot of question marks, I think what happens on the Churchill turf course the past few years tends to be in complete isolation so I may try to get Lamorna into the number in here...she was always pretty talented though disappointing but I think this is her best trip...the Turfway efforts were fine and I'm guessing with Victor Espinoza up she's unlikely to draw much attention in the wagering. Best Value: Race 7 #1 Fluid Situation 12/1 I like the 5.5 for him and I think he's better than he's shown the last few with some trips. Not sure how Johnny will work out the right trip from the rail but the price will be right and I wasn't thrilled with any of the more logical contenders in this group. Good luck everyone - going to try to calculate where I ended last year as I don't think I updated at the end, things went pretty cold late in the meet last year, but hopefully can find some similar success this go around.

^Thanks Steve.
Was just curious, went back and checked: 2023: Wagered: $320.00 Returned: $316.70 2024: Wagered: $316.00 Returned: $377.80 So far we will take the start to 2025...Fluid Situation ran an OK third without much of an excuse but Quiet Confidence proved the move to turf was no fluke paying $17.80/7.00 Wagered: $8.00 Returned: $24.80 Pretty fun 4th card today, still working on it.

$8.00 wagered $0.00 returned Today — Race 2. #3 Bay Yaupon 10/1. Contessa took this two years ago with a first time starter. None of the horses here look anything special and the recent bullet work hints that maybe this one is ready. Race 4. #5 Profound 8/1. Ran into a good one last out and should appreciate the slight cut back and the fact that there doesn’t seem to be much pace signed on.

7/4/25:
Best Bet: Race 9 #4 New Century 3/1 - At 3/1 I'd place a pretty good bet here, I like everything about this horse. I think his American Turf was really nice...the race two back to Field of Gold, being within five lengths of that one is no shame. I know it's not exactly a secret but not sure everyone here grasps just how good FOG is. Oisin is as good of a turf rider as there is IMO although he hasn't quite found a ton of success in his NA chances, I have all the confidence in the world in him getting this horse getting this horse in a better spot than the last and I really do think he will win. Best Value: Race 10 #5 Bendoog 12/1 - I know the Suburban was pretty weak last year but I thought he should've won with a better trip, however more importantly I just like the pattern coming in this year better. I think Mott was a little behind with him last year pointing to this spot and I think he really does want the 1 1/4 mile trip. I think the pattern of keeping him somewhat fresh has him pointed to a peak effort. I think he also figures to get the right kind of trip in here today sitting behind what could be a good pace but possibly getting first run.
