[wac]

Corey Nakatani should be embarrassed for taking the mount on Colonial Empress. I know Lukas has lost his mind but this is beyond ridiculous.

The AE is also ambitiously placed.

Lukas has a good chance at the Oaks/Derby last place double

D Wayne is 0 for 57 in graded stakes races the last few years. I remember we were talking about this about 5 years ago and he was around 1 for 80 in graded stakes races at the time. I wonder what his record is in graded stakes races the last 10 years.

I think he must hold the all-time record for the worst performance in history over a 10 year period in graded stakes races. He must be like 2 for 250 or something like that over the last 10 years. It couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

Swinging for the fences today -

50 cent P3 starting with Humana:
3,4,5,8/2,5,8,10/ALL = 4X4X20X0.50 = $160

50 cent Derby Tri's:
15,18/4,5,10,15,18/4,5,10,14,15,18,20
4,5,10,15,18/15,18/4,5,10,14,15,18,20
4,5,10,15,18/4,5,10,14,15,18,20/15,18 = 2x4x5x0.50 = $20 x 3 = $60

$220 total

Good luck to everyone!

Im using her as a backup. Shes slow, and her race this year sucked. Those are the negatives. The positives are her race over the track is really good. Her last work was awesome and there is a good amount of speed signed on. Pletchers horse and the Jones filly feel like they both need the lead, and then you have about 5 others who want to stalk/ be up close. If the race melts down, why cant she win at 15 or 20-1. Im working on the card now, Ill have more thoughts soon.

Not one winner has come from the 3 inside post positions since 2000 in the KD.
