I don't want to scare you, JMS, but I might be heating up.

From my stupid twitter that nobody reads:

"R3 - could see trying to beat the overbet chalk in here w/ 1 and 4."

"Not crazy about hanging fave in R5. Thinking 8 offers the best value."

an assortment of other brilliant recent opinions as well. . .

LOL, you are CRAZY.
I think it might be working though, I sense JMS being scared.

Toga is giving me fits I've lost 12 consecutive P4's some in a very painful fashion... So unless I pull it together today might very well be a moving day for you. I do want to see both of us with a positive ROI to show those naysers that said we have no shot.

How dont you use Richards Kid? You liked him in the turf race 2 back, you dont use him at those odds today?

Did you see his last two?

Probably becuase he is tasked with choosing before the race is run.

This is sick. You are CRUSHING HIM.

Hockey just to be clear if we go off turf Miss World is your pick and Don't forget Gil is your backup?

LOL... I think he means it the other way, let me call him to confirm...

oh god no need to call. . . If they're off the turf (which they probably won't be) I'll take Gil).

I was being sarcastic....

Very Nice Week for Hockey
