Belmont Race 7:

$20 Grand Slam (sorry, RQ, but I just had to do it)
6 / 1,3,6,8 / 5 / 6 ($80)

$5 Grand Slam:
6 / 1,3 / 5 / 2,8 ($20)

Good luck to all and thank you to RQ for scoring.

This is a very different type of GS play for me to try. Instead of playing a $2 Grand Slam and hoping to hit it 20 times, I'm playing a $20 GS and hoping to hit it 2 times. More of a reflection of the card in front of us. Most of all it is my attempt to leverage a win bet on Diversify (whom I like a lot)into something better than the 3/5 that I think he will be at post time.

Might as well try the Grand Slam too.

Well, none of us who were trying to hit the Grand Slam counted on Discreet Lover's (or as Larry was calling him for most of the race Discreet Image) being the one to hit it over the Green Monster. 1:09.13 for 6 furlongs in a mile and one-quarter race? What was Irad thinking? More to the point, was Irad thinking??

I think we all made a pretty credible stab at it. And I definitely will try that type of bet again with maybe a bit more of a spread in leg 4 which is the critical one. I spread in leg 2 which I had little confidence in( I tend to have little confidence in my Turf picks). Of course I hit that one in all four of my bets.
