Card today has been destroyed.No turf in race 3(5 horse race.)Top 2 favs in the 7th(O TEMPTING,NAUGHTYLILHOTTIE) are out(5 horse race with no speed.)We did not get enough rain to take it off turf.I wasn't even sure there was enough rain to soften it up for Tenash's desired course.They are looking for any escuse to not use that turf.When they do race(during the week) on it,it is a freak fest(rail out so far.)They should just race on it on the weekends(obviously they could care less about Wed-Fri.)

Fantasmin out.....Something ain't right.They must have sealed,and didn't get the rain,or something.The 2 favs in the 7th,and a horse in the 6th with a huge shot? All scratched?? Hess is not exactly Neil Drysdale(he is not looking for an excuse to scratch.)

agreed - something is amiss here. is it possible that Hess is avoiding someone in there..maybe Watch O Me is really ready.........either way, i still think there is a chance to beat some favs in the pk4 and get paid a decent amount. something like this

5)1,5,3,6 Have to wait to see if solis and puype really have anything here, let the board lead me...
6)2,3,5
7)6 (maybe add the 1 in some pick3's to back it up...)
8)4,8,10

1st race went 1:09.3 so it could be playing to speed today if that is any indication...

Hess said that they figured out that Fantasmin has bad feet(hooves...whatever.) Maybe he knew this track (today)would be too tough on his horse's wheels.

If that is the case, it would be nice to know if Watch O Me's problems were with his feet/joints or breathng issues.....
