Ya could have given the baby to me. My hubby loves Giacomo. Won him a lot on Derby day.

By the way, I had Closing Argument. I NEVER heard the end of it from him that his horse beat mine!

Volponi sired another $60 turf winner today.

From a limited sample so far, his horses have run excellent on turf, fairly decent on synthetic, and just plain awful on dirt.

3-for-10 actually - because their was another turf debuter of his in the race - whom I sadly bet.

He's 5-for-18 overall with turfers - one of which took a Grade 3 stake by open lengths at 17/1 odds after breaking her maiden in debut on the turf at 8/1.

I actually used Lava Cat in the tail end of my pick 3 today (one of the 4 I used). By dumb luck, I singled North Country, but even more stupidy came oozing from my brain when I tried to beat both Roi and Leo in the feature. Yet another reason I consistently lose money at this game. I surely couldnt have used the $1k that the pick 3 ended up paying.
