1/3: Aqueduct (C/O); Gulfstream (R4-R9)

[Kasept]

Valiant effort at Santa Anita C/O was dashed by 6th race (3rd leg) miscue when my two inclusions (3-2 fave Cat Brulay and 9-2 Cape Hatchet) could not reel in courageous frontrunner Wine on the Porch (6-1). 5 of 6 conso prize of $449.00 justified the $288 investment, and 'Best Value' nightcap winner Weevescent's $20.20 mutuel closed the good day.

Earlier in the afternoon, while my Aqueduct effort was barely mediocre, it did include all the mutuels in the 5th as long as you included 4th choice Kiss and Fly who wore down top tab Carpathian. A $222 tri and $785 super were there if you used all four. Otherwise, I was stumped at Ozone Park... Hope you did OK!

Aqueduct produced a double carry of $118,000 which I look at below, ansd Gulfstream open up at Hallandale Beach... Hope you did well yesterday, and best of luck to those playing in TwinSpires' 'Biggest Vegas Qualifier Ever' including ATR's Gus Alonso... Remember that 'Beat the Host' is starting at Xpressbet today as well!

Hope the figs on Lake Butler are right and not just Finger Lakes inflated.

Dell,

Even if they are a tad inflated, Lake Butler 'forward progress' is appealling at that price...

G/L today!

[docicu3]

I agree that the 5th at the Big A is impossiblr but if you go that deep leaving #8 El Borracho off the play given the improvement and TGH pattern may be a huge 30-1 regret. I will be keying him with 5,6,10 in this race. A race where money can be made today. GL all.....

No Jazz for me.. He can certainly hit the board, but needs to step it up to do so. Bee Cee Cee is as fast as he is and will be 3X the price...
