You're right in it. One good winner and plenty of time left. Bring it home

Going to Vegas later this month on a birthday trip. I'll have to use DJ's picks at Delmar so I'll have a least one winner to recoup the losses from my own handicapping.

Have been kinda lucky at delmar over the years, but a word of caution..The last winner i gave out was Sea Hero '93 derby winner...picked up on him from DRF's bloodlines bout week or two b4 the derby and he was listed at 30-1..a friend was going to Vegas and offered to make a bet on the future book...was gonna send $20 on him but said nah, i'll be at Charlestown race track and bet him there..yeah right..dummy me, i got pissed because he was 12-1 with 10 mtp and said fk it, i want 30-1..so in my infinite wisdom i played 3 $10 exactas and left out the chalk Prairie Bayou...didn't mean to bore you but every once in awhile i gotta get that out..
Have a good and safe trip to Vegas and bring home some bacon..

The derby winner I'm still kicking myself over was Thundergulch, but the race that really had me cussin' was the 2002 Belmont Stakes. I'm the genius that had Medaglia D'Oro over Sarava in a cold exacta. Can't complain too much about MDO though. He ran 2nd in the 2003 BC Classic to Pleasantly Perfect and I managed to have the tri. I guess we all have our tales of hits and near hits which adds to the fun, I think?

And so much for trainer stats. 0/19 first on turf and 0/12 2nd after claimed.

Yep I figured it would be out front but get mowed down.

Maybe, I'm wrong, but I think taking the 9 off the pace had a lot to do with that finish. He looked to be the main speed.
