Tough sledding at CD, but Friday a new day
By kasept. Filed in Uncategorized |
Got roughed up at Churchill Thursday reaching for too many prices that fell short (Witty Gal, Bold Tap) and missing the ones that came through ($21 Flashy Rae, $37 Chief’s Revenge)! The sequences were well worth trying though as the P5 returned $15,400 and the late quad $1,950. Another nice Downs sequence this afternoon and Hollywood P5 includes the debut of the Zenyatta sister Eblouissante in the 4th (5:02pm ET)..

Zenyatta half sis Eblouissante worked 45 times leading up to today’s debut. Every indication is that she has talent but is big and slightly lumbering. Finally showed some speed in last drill and will have to use it to stay close enough for late bid. Will certainly be overbet..
