Win = Catlaunch Saturday under highweight (and also spotting several years) in the Sydney Gendelman Memorial Handicap at River Downs.

Disappointment = a tossup between the Belmont Stakes, and Gio Ponti's 3rd in the the Manhattan.

Best = The late Lezcano Double on Saturday.

Worst = If we can count Friday, going 3 for 4 on both Belmont Pick 4's, more importantly, the late one where I got beat by that POS Unforgettable PJ by a head at 61-1

Best: Ravi's Song thundering down the stretch in the Mint Julep at CD, proving in her first attempt that she can handle the turf.

Worst: Ravi's Song, missing by a nostril, finishing 2nd, needing 1 more step for the win

What is a win? So probably the sprint performance at Belmont or Stay Thirsty finishing in front of every horse who beat him at Churchill.

Disappointment...getting knocked out of the grand slam in the second leg even though I wouldn't have had the winner in the last leg.

Best: actively playing against dead favorites like Turbulent Descent, Aviate, and Gio Ponti

Worst: not having the correct horses against the 3 listed above.

Best: It's Tricky, CS Silk, and Roman Ruler/Stay Thirsty

Worst: Freaking Justin Phillip and Mission Approved. Potential day-ruiners.
