Hawthorne 12/28

[brianwspencer]

With the free TG charts, I figured I'd go ahead and cap tomorrow's card and post some picks here -- mostly for public ridicule and a good laugh if I fail miserably!

Brian, you're a brave soul in my opinion to handicap a Hawthorne card. I can never get a sniff there. Probably cause I don't follow it very close,

anyway, Good Luck!

i know it's tricky, but i still love it -- the payoff is there when you get it right!

we'll see how it goes, it's my first public handicapping on the forum, so i'm not expecting much

...and there's always tomorrow!

Hey, the tricky ones are where you can get a nice payoff if you can happen on to an angle or an opinion.

"...and there's always tomorrow!"
thats also my confidence booster at the end of each day!

the feature 8th looks real tough brian. garesche ran huge off the pine last time and is the obvious class of the field, if he improves at all off his last mighty tough. theres about5or 6 in there witha shot

I like the 7th race:
Sole of the Rat. A medium sized win bet and a small exacta box with Summer Gerbil.
