Default 5/16: Hi Ho.. Pimlico! (Special/Susie Day)

Find Friday card at Ol' Hilltop more appealling than Saturday's Preakness slate, and happy to bring the Woodlawn, Gr. I Special, Very One and Gr. II Susan live on 'At the Races'.. Much like Derby Weekend, rain is in the forecast for Baltimore today, but it doesn't look like what we got Oaks Day in Louisville. Adjust accordingly though, and Preakness Day looks good.


PIMLICO RACE COURSE


7th: ALW/N1X, 3+, 5f (P6, P3, Super)

OFF THE TURF (10-2-7-14) 4-7-13-2


8th: 23rd Miss Preakness (Gr. III), 3yo-F, 6f (P3, Super)

Most Likely: #4 PALANKA CITY 9-5 WON
Best Value: #1 Casanova Killer 6-1 2nd
Next Best: #5 SCR
Exotics Add: #2 SCR


9th: 43rd Woodlawn, 3yo, 1m-T (P4, Super)

OFF THE TURF (1-4-7-8) 1-5-4-2


10th: 41st Pimlico Special (Gr. I), 4+, 9.75f (P3, Special-Preakness Double, Super)

Intriguing return of the famed standard originated in the Seabiscuit-War Admiral Match Race.. Wide open affair making the Special-Preakness Double interesting as a way to cover Big Brown today if planning to go against tomorrow..

Best Value: #8 Sir Whimsey 10-1: 3rd Toner colt can win at price returning to prefered type of main track and to level of Gr. II GP 'Cap score two back..

Most Likely: #7 Grasshopper 3-1: 5th Howard 4yo slightly a 'most likely' as any here with consistant tab and plus style for undertaking; Never off board career and stake try last was not his bag when chasing runaway KMc train, and $20k Chuck Simon purchase, Divine Park..

Next Best: #2 Gottcha Gold 9-2: 2nd Concerned that this wasn't Plesa's original goal, but Chucky sticks when he could have had 'Saint' and ability to sit off anticipated solid pace should work well..

Exotics Add: #5 Xchanger 20-1: 7th Not leaving hot-working Shuman 4yo off exotic tix going 2nd/break, Sprint/Route, Poly/Dirt on track where he took '07 Tesio..


11th: 9th Very One, F&M-3+, 5f-T (P3, Super)

OFF THE TURF (9-2-7-11) 7-11-9-12


12th: 84th Black-Eyed Susan (Gr. II), 3yo-F, 9f (DD, Super)

Very difficult edition of this race and I'll take shot with Canani visitor Seattle Smooth (#6, 10-1); Highest Class and Bsharpsonata are left out of the in-race selections, but will be on my multi-race wagers as cover..

Best Value: #6 Seattle Smooth 10-1: 3rd Note fig boost when off synthetic first time and fact that Canani doesn't show up in these parts too often; Gets Edgar and my money..

Most Likely: #8 She's All Eltish 5-2: 2nd Wolfson another invader who rarely leaves home state and Bonnie Miss winner has been consistant earner from beginning of career; Gomez hops on and stalking style should suit..

Next Best: #2 Sweet Vendetta 8-1: Inviting price on Stephen Got Even bay that sharpened as winter went on; Wonder if Contessa thought about this spot after AQU Inner stake win 3/19?

Exotics Add: #1e Zayat entry 8-1: 5th/6th Doubt the 8-1 holds on this Dutrow-Romans pair that can attack race from front and back end..

$2 Exacta (2-8) Paid $85.80
$2 Trifecta (2-8-6) Paid $514.20



13th: MSW, 3+, 8.5f-T (Super)

OFF THE TURF (2-3-6) 6-12-3-2 $2 Pick 3 (7-2-6) $708.80


Good luck!
Steve

A true shame. Weather has not been kind this last year to big days.

Of course, I'm the worst turf handicapper on the planet, so they probably saved me a few bucks.

I think a real cheap pick 6 may be the way to go:

2/4/4,8/8/9/1,4,6,8 = $16

Is there any way that Shes All Eltish' odds are going to stay around 4-1? She was 8-1 last time I looked. BSharp was 9-5, and I dont see her with much of a chance in here. I hope the odds don't plummet too much on SAE. Will load up if the odds hover around 4-1.

On another note, my first real action since the Kentucky Derby, will be a heavy PIM Sp./Preakness DD using Xchanger and Sir Whimsey avec BB.

Race 10 $1 p3

1,5,7,8 / 7,9 / 4,8

5$ p3

1,5,7,8 / 9 / 4,8


IT'S OFFICIAL. I CAN'T WAGER ON HORSES TO SAVE MY LIFE. Those that had Student Council, congrats...
Best of luck to those playing this weekend!! May you lead the way to the IRS window.
