Huh? What, were they up late watching B-ball or something?

Leaving #3 out of Race 6 will be a deadly sin.

possibly the sprint x 14 to route angle? Big Gavel is going (don't know about the other half of the entry) and I think he's live here, but using 4 horses in this leg and can't find anything to like about the 3 to win - if he beats me, he beats me.

EDIT - Scratch 1A Eli's Comin Early

Dan,

He does look like he's ready for a good try on the sheets, but even a return to his best only hits the board unless 3 others fail to fire. And that's the story of his entire career.

Not to say he isn't useful. He's made $44k... because after all, NY breds start with an advantage. Does anyone here remember the great Pocahoba? Owned by my friends at Pont St. Stables and trained by Del Carroll, she broke her maiden in career start #33 having amassed, I believe, a bankroll of $130,000! She promptly got hurt in start #34 and had to be retired.

Don't leave #2 out of your P6 in race 4. This horse closes.

Agree Steve- it isn't uncommon at all to see these types with this sort of a record break through MSW in their 20th plus start - the state bred program there is great in that respect you eventually catch a soft field and as long as you hit the board you pay the bills... I wouldn't be surprised to see this one get through at the condition but he's up against it today, though can easily be a part of it underneath - I'm more concerned about the Rice horse off the layoff who I'm still on the fence about adding

I'm a Spencerific fan, but he is a horse you can only use underneath. You cannot play P6's or P4's using horses like him. I've happily included him many, many times for exotics, but there are always going to be Raffinators, Spicy Steves or similar that keep him as a career maiden type.
