SAT - Gulfstream full card & late PK4 @ KEE
 

I'm down in South Florida for the weekend and heading towards Gulfstream Park today for some racing action. Half the races carded for the lawn today just adds to my interest. Also, I'll be keeping one eye on the action at KEE. It's time to add to the Derby bankroll.

Good Racing Luck

Thanks for the insights Gus and good luck. Enjoy the live action in Hallandale.

Thanks, good luck today

gus in the 5th do you not like 8 wood be willing? hes run well on the turf at times.good luck today

What's Up Matt? Hope all is well. No doubt he's got a shot especially with his back class, but the Killer usually runs his horses in shape.

Gus, great call on the pick 4 at Keeneland...

nice gus..

Well done re the KEE P4 Gus!

Thanks, Gus !!!

Well I guess I messed that up. Went with Gus at Gulfstream. Did not play keenland:zz:

Anyway,
Very nice hit Gus!

Really nice job here.

I Appreciate the Kudos. As Charlie R can tell you things didn't go to well at the windows at GP. Things really changed when Advice was able to rally home in the Lexington at KEE and then Pletcher completed the late DD with La Rocca. I had an awesome day all the way around and I'm glad to see some were able to catch a piece as well.

congratulations Gus on Keenland hit. As , i played the gulfstream instead , i am suffering lost dreams.
As always , I am a giant fan of your handicapping abilities particularly to create economical pick fours with outstanding success!! I have finished reading many introductory books to handicapping and will try those beginning techniques come Derby Day. I look forward to your analysis that week. Do you use any external sources aside from your own race analysis?
Enjoy the rest of your mini-vacation reunion! As always, I look forward to your Friday segments on the radio. Continued success. The Boss

Gus,

On the road but catching up now with Emails coming in from happy ATR listeners Was a beautifully played P4. Congrats. We filled up a lot of bankrolls yesterday. Hope you and the posse had a great time. Did what I could to help at CT.

My pleasure Boss. I mostly use a variety of handicapping tools and believe you can never have enough information. My bread and butter is Formulator (DRF pps) and watching endless replays. It has taken me years of losing to fully understand how to have some success. It sounds like you are on your way, so I suggest you keep at it. Thanks for the kind words and well wishes. Gus

Thanks Steve, I'm always glad to hear some ATR listeners and DT'ers were able to cash in from our selections. We had a fantastic time yesterday except for the fact that I only played the PK4 at KEE for $.50 instead of the $1 play I posted, my posse gets a bit greedy. At first glance I had my doubts that La Rocca won the head bob in the KEE nightcap.
