She opted for the Spinaway.

Looks like she opted for the wrong race...

Indeed -- the Beyer for the Sorority (6f) was just a 63 and Teen Pauline would have almost certainly sat a perfect stalking trip at 6f...and buried that field.

Instead she dueled going 7f at Saratoga and faltered late in a MUCH tougher (but obviously MUCH more prestigious) spot.

There are a laundry list of horses who appear certain winners today -- pretty close to split anyone of about a dozen who look certain.

Lets go out to Emerald Downs in the Pacific Northwest -- in race #1 Polish Dollar is stretching out for the first time in a long time -- he owns a significant pace advantage and I don't believe the distance will be any problem.

Standout of the day:

EMD race #1: Polish Dollar

Not a whole lot of action to choose from on Tuesday.

Standout of the day for Tuesday:

Hoosier Race #2: Crimson's Roar

There are some things that should turn bettors off with this one: He's been laid up for over a month and a half with no workouts, barn change to a guy who hasn't won off the claim, and just a 5% jockey in 2012 (17 wins from 325 mounts)

However, the absence from racing is because he's been waiting for Ellis Park to end. The absence of any workouts the last seven weeks doesn't bother me, and the human connections don't bother me.

Won and paid a monstrous $3.20 -- once again the 5/2 morning line didn't come close to holding up when I thought maybe it might.

5 down, 5 more to go.

To quote Bon Jovi "we're halfway there ... woooo ohhh, livin' on a prayer!"

Drugs I had him at 4-5 on Betfair thanks a million some lucky lads actually backed him at 6-4 in early trading. Unfortunately, Betfair doesn't take Hoosier Park

Nice job getting that value on Betfair.

I don't think anyone has ever thanked me for a $2.60 winner before.
