Default Your lock for the weekend

Oh be quiet I know it's late but I'm busy.

Soooooo children with two thirds of the holiday weekend left does anyone have a lock and, if so, who is it?

Sell the house, sell the kids...

His name is Woodbourne and he's planning on winning the Connaught Cup tomorrow (Woodbine, R8) and at really fat odds.

Who wants to go next?

I considered that horse briefly until I saw he had the mount. A few days ago a trainer who hadn't won a race in 8 years scored his first win. Van Berg must be right around the corner.

What we need is Joe to ride a Jack horse - if it wins then we would have confirmation that the world actually did end last week.

Lets not compare a hall of famer to an excercise rider.

You are right. Steiner is much more likely to win a race anytime soon.

Lets not compare a work rider to an exercise rider, Joe couldnt gallop a horse if his life depended on it, but he can let them go fast.

I know she will be heavy chalk, but, Wasted Tears in the Quija Board at Lone Star Park.
My live longshots are Tackleberry in the Met Mile and Eclair de Lune in the Gamely.

Weekend's almost over and they dq'd the best horse in the 8th at hollywood costing me 2/3 of my losses for the day on the tail end of a pick 3.
I also would've been alive one by five in the late pick 4 to #8 in the ninth soooo.. the #8 horse in the 9th coming off of a sixth month layoff and working out as if she's prepping for the BC sprint is my best bet of the weekend. Dead on the board at 12-1 in a race where no one wants the front end

Thanks for noticing my Dubawi Heights best bet. It had to be as I lost all twelve of the other bets prior, and went to $0.23 on my Twinspires account (I pre-bet all thirteen races around noon).
