Fans still love Maylan's pictures I guess.

I actually used that 5 in my pick 6.

Too bad I didn't make it past the first leg. I think we carry again.

How did you use him? I can't see anything here that would point me too him.

All kinds of trouble on the inner, had him on my watch list, ran well in fits and starts but found problems every time- figured he'd get a clean run today from the back, just a matter if he could sustain it. didn't like the 8 so I was willing to go deep in that leg, used 3,5,6,7,9.

By the way- in that 6th race the 3 was much the best. Tons of trouble and when he finally got clear 100 yards from the wire he shot past them both.

In my pick 6 ticket I singled the 7 but I wouldn't say that's a strong single.

Monba at 6/5 is ridiculous... there isn't a whole lot of pace in here, although I think Dominican could get back on track at the site of his biggest moment.

Grasshopper has been too bad to believe this year.

Kent recognized the lack of pace and took advantage. Thought he might be able to take them a long way, but you never know on the surface switch.

Thanks for pointing that out, I did not see the trouble the 3 had, will have to watch that race back again.

I would have had a terrific weekend if I bet place.

Well that's it for me. Unbelievable. There is absolutely nothing here to indicate Hawkinsville had any chance at all. Well I am pretty sure we are looking at a triple carryover.

I can take getting beat and I felt that 9 was live at the price, but I can't take getting beat by a horse making that kind of insane move and winning. What just happened there?

I didn't use him in my now defunct pk4, but I am going to put $20W on the 5 Saratoga Lullaby here at 7-1. The more I look at this race, the more I think the winner will be off the pace. $10DD 5-2. Maybe he can make an insane wide move before the turn turn, take the lead, and hold off the other horses.

Hope you're right- that would probably lock up a carryover.

Desparation has set in. Your betting on a horse to make an insane move. good luck. He probably will.

Nice win by Reptilian Smarts and good ride by the kid. I'm glad my single lost.

Dominguez tried to get cute but this time it didn't work. Man Helsinki didn't show up at all.

Leave it to me to find the horse that pulls up.

Reptillian Smarts really loves the Big A and 3-1 wasn't a bad price, but you are right, desparation has set in.

On another note, Greenspirit couldn't have had it any better and folded like a tent.
