Well,they are the "deciders." I mean, Flores could have gone up and kept "Phar " from getting a 1:13,but he chose to just sit there.I figured Court would give that horse a perfect ride.After blowing that ride on your horse,he needed to put a real good ride in on the next chalk he had.

Well, time to look for tomorrow's choice -- I have survived Day Four! New all-time high for your's truly... woo hoo!

On Saturday will anyone choose horse other than Lava Man? Seriously, Santa Anita outta just make Saturday freebie and move on to Sunday's card.

Iron Butterfly or Indy's Windy?

I am out. I had Big Jon, and he ran like crap. I talked myself off of the Mandella horse and thats what I get. For me to get out by not taking a Mandella horse.....serves me right.

Indy's Windy always hangs, but she's never been out of the tri. But, who cares, I think the Butterfly of Iron will catch everyone today.

That'll do me just fine...

Contest Tally: 3 W's (5.60, 6.20, 8.20 win), 1 P (2.60 place), 1 S (3.20 show)

I know at least half the contestants will be on Lava Man tomorrow, so I'm going to hope for the worst there and stick with the small field strategy in the 2nd race and go with Racketeer. He's been in the tri consistently the past few and should get a healthy pace to run at, rather take my chances there...
