I tried to jam him in the 2nd slot instead in exactas.

It was a tough triple spread, as even though the two logical horses ran one-two, you sort of had to use more than a few horses.

Carry on the Dream is pretty interesting in the 5th race. He had an unusually crazy trip in his lone turf race going long.

I don't play Belmont but saw the race. Very nicely done.

its pretty universal any horse ridden by his former rider gets a crazy trip.....and if that does not work he just throws dirt at em

That's a BANG.

Not the craziest stab in the 6th- the 9, Leaveitinthering. Steps up a level after running a career best, Coa hops off for the 8 but gets Garcia.

I made a little bet on Bravo's Princess.

The fillies and mares in the 7th are worth nowhere near $45k. Most of these would struggle at $20k!!

You think those were bad, take a look at the $35,000 claimers in the ninth.. They all belong at Suffolk. If Galluscio's horse has four legs, she should roll.

Whose bright idea was it to start running NY-bred maiden claimers at NYRA tracks? NY-bred maiden special weights are bad enough..
