I really wanted to take a shot at the Pick 6 that covered races 7-12, but was left in a quandry as to what to do with Thorpedo Anna in the Fleur de Lis. Last year the decision to single her would have been a no-brainer (I'm good at them), but I just didn't have enough confidence in her form this year to make her a single and the numbers just didn't fit our bankroll if I played against her in the pick 6, mostly since I have no idea how the Foster will turn out. So, here goes with my Plan B:
Race 8: $0.50 pick 5: 5,6 / 1,3,4 / 3,7 / 1,2,4,5,6 / 1,3,8 ($90) Good luck to all and thank you to Real Quiet for scoring. Hope you enjoy the superb racing card that Churchill Downs has put together.

After staying alive through 4 legs of my pick 5 play yesterday, I made the cardinal mistake of looking at the will pays before the final leg. That's as bad as counting your chips at the poker table and can incur the wrath of the racing gods. Sure enough, of my picks Reagan's Wit was a late scratch, Tiztastic didn't run a step and Freedom's Not Free lead to the 1/16th pole and then threw out an anchor. The winner. Minaret Station, was an overlaid 15-1 in the ML and went off at 5-2 or so, logical for the scratched down field. I actually played him in a Twin Spires pick 6 contest sequence but didn't have room on the ROI ticket. Perhaps in hindsight I went too deep in the Foster and should have taken a stronger stand, but I was in too much of a muddle in that race to leave any contender out. Still learning this game. All of the pick 5 will pays seemed to me to be extremely generous for a sequence that only included logical contenders.
