I'll probably take Glads Gals, too, although I'm never thrilled to take a very heavy fav in a claimer. There's often something wrong with the horse.

Decided against Glads Gal, despite my love for 5-horse races in this contest. Aside from last race, which was run on synth, nothing special. 2 prev at SA were no better than current competition.

Actually tempted to pass on today, but will go with Setsuko in 5th.

Nice work on the exacta!

My pick finished 5th of 7. If I'd checked for late scratches, I'd have bet the 1st race with just 4 of them running. Oh well. I'm switching gears now and will try for the highest win payout going forward.

Good luck to everyone on the show (and win) streaks.
