Vegas contest intrigues with Holiday weekend looming
By kasept. Filed in Uncategorized |
Weekday money tree continued to bear fruit Friday as I was able to negotiate the late Churchill quad for $388. Winners paid $10, $12, $15 and $7, but ‘felt’ chalky. Added some exotic flavor with Most Likely 2nd choice Cielo Classic in the 8th keying a $100 tri and $275 super. It’s been a very solid week of play with $276 in P4 investments returning $1,567. Hope you’ve been playing along and doing well.
The huge Thanksgiving Weekend of racing looms ahead, but Aqueduct and Churchill look like good targets today. Good luck to Twin Spires Contest players today. Thanks again to all for the warm birthday wishes Friday. It was a really nice day for me…

Very tricky group with little to grab hold of. Note the <6f distance here which favors inside speed. May need to use at least 6 to get through opening leg of quad, and suggest watching board for any glaring clues, if possible, before sending in ticket..
