$3,500 P4 cap big Friday night; Eclectic Saturday on tap..
By kasept. Filed in Uncategorized |A bit wrung out from long day Friday that turned into a very late, but worthwhile, night. Hope you did well on what I felt was a very strong night of horse play ending with the $3,500 late P4 at the ‘Wood… Hope I can do half as well Saturday with a variety of interesting action on tap…

FRIDAY NIGHT (6/19) RESULTS
Came away empty-handed and $250 lighter in the bankroll Thursday after noble try at the Hollywood carryover. Good news is we all get another shot late tonight with a pool at $550k+ and likely to approach $3,000,000.
Although the late P4 recouped a tiny sum, losing the photo between Senor Afortunado (P4 paid $100+) and Magna Cum Laude (P4 would pay $500+) in that nightcap was the difference in breaking even on the day after the $288 and $72 P6 and P4 investments.
It was a super tough sequence in which having the right single (Delta Storm in the Kerlan) and one of the $30+ horses (Tidal Dance in the 4th) felt really good but delivered nothing to the bottom line. Hope you fared OK…
Fabulous racing night ahead though with Churchill running from 6pm to 11:15pm (EST) and Hollywood commencing at 10;05pm EST and wrapping at 1:20pm (EST). Should be a special evening for racing fans and horseplayers…
