Lousy beat Nick, Two T's at Two B was clearly best.

Thanks, Joey. That stung like you wouldn't believe, had live win, double to the 6.

Nice job!

I am no fan of Merill Scherer, but the 1 looks live to me in the 8th.

I like him a little too, but am worried about him getting fried in a duel with Street Game and/or Abilio.

I am thinking that Rosario is smart enough to sit behind Street Game and Abilio and save all the ground. His back numbers are good enough to beat these, and though he had a very long layoff, his first race back indicates to me that whatever injury he had has been resolved. Plus, the only horse Rosario has ridden for Scherer in the last two years came in at 16-1 and it was at the Spa. (I think it may have been the first day of the meet).

Amount Invested: $2,400
Amount Returned: $1,853.37
Net: -$546.63
$2 ROI: $1.55

Late Pick 4:

7th: #2 Coriander the one to beat dropping slightly and cutting back half a panel, but she's proven she's no superstar, so I'm using a few others. #3 Mavourneen faced a much better group off a 268-day layoff last out and has the right to jump forward 2nd time back for Voss. #6 Allie Sweet doesn't have much turf pedigree, but was OK in her debut after a poor start and Castellano stays aboard. #8 Love is Key Kaz took a big jump forward on the TG scale for her last race and will be a good price coming from low-percentage connections.

8th: Can't dismiss any of these. Potential for price looms, as #3 Ballistic Sue could find herself on a lonely lead and #8 Sheza Heartbreaker will be in a spot to make one run, unlike last time when Velasquez found himself on an easy lead and just about crapped his pants.

9th: Tough to get past the 2-4 finishers from the Evan Shipman, #6 Groomedforvictory and #7 Awesome Vision, as they both ran better races than the perfect-trip winner and should be able to turn the tables with fairer trips. I'll use #3 Zetterholm and #4 Bigger is Bettor as C's.

10th: #1 Awakino Cat would have to do something crazy to lose. He lays over this field, particularly after all the scratches.

$1.50 PK4 2,3,6,8/ALL/6,7/1 $84
$.50 PK4 2,3/ALL/3,4/1 $14
Race 6 $1 PK3 4/3/3,8 $2

Ballistic Sue! Way to hang in there.

4-figure deficit to black territory in less than a week. LET'S GO!

Nice ticket. Great strategy.

Good work Oey! Way to press at it. Was a fun sequence. Sorry you're not going to be here. It's not Alabama Day without the O-E-Y.
