12/20: Gulfstream Park (5th-9th)
Despite a good day overall Wednesday, came away from Gulfstream action bitterly disappointed with my tentative approach to the P5/P4 that left more than $8k on the table. Had no trouble identifying the winners in the eminently hittable sequences, but decision to spend $48 instead of $72 on the P4 cost $1,300 when Jay Eye See won the the 7th. The P5 paid a crazy $7k and a more aggressive attack had obvious potential to access it. The upside is there was a myriad of exotics and multis laid out and I was pleased to hear from a few people that scored well on the afternoon. Thursday sequence was a little less interesting in the handicapping process, but you never know. Hope you did well yesterday!
GULFSTREAM PARK POST-SCRATCHES NOTE: REMEMBER THAT GULFSTREAM IS OFFERING .50 TRIFECTAS! 5th: CLM/N3L, F&M-3+, 6f (P5, P3, DD) Don't trust anybody here.. Best Value: #4 Shirleycee 8-1 6th Next Best: #2 Maelys Hope 5-2 WON ($3.80) Exotics Use: #7 Red Over Blue 4-1 5th Super Add: #5 Mass Invasion 12-1 3rd 6th: OC/N1X, 2yo, 5f-T/0' (P4, P3, DD) I don't get 5-2 fave Skylander at all. Ton of speed in this too by the way and the one that looks like a stalking beneficiary is Beach Master.. Most Likely: #3 Beach Master 6-1 6th Best Value: #5 Party Lad 10-1 WON ($12.00) Next Best: #2 Late SCR Exotics Use: #10 Sayaad 5-1 5th 7th: MSW, 2yo-F, 6f (P3, DD) As discussed with Mike Welsch, several well-bred types here working very nicely for debut (Highestmaintenance, Fiorelli) or 2nd outing in the case of Gadget Girl. Five of the 9 seem capable.. Most Likely: #6 Cheyenne Autumn 4-1 9th Next Best: #3 Highestmaintenance 5-2 WON ($5.60) Best Value: #1 Gadget Girl 6-1 2nd Exotics Use: #8 Fioretti 3-1 5th 8th: CLM/N3L, 3+, 8.5f-T/60' (DD) Best Value: #10 Love of Flying 12-1 2nd Next Best: #3 Stay Red 8-1 6th Exotics Use: #1a Late SCR Super Add: #11 Dynamic Boy 15-1 WON ($38.80) 9th: MDN CLM, 2yo, 1m-T/0' (Super Hi-5) Flaxman & Graham Motion offer 2nd time starter & Aruna half brother Pontus (Harlan's Holiday) up for $35k here. Don't see how that is construed as a positive.. Most Likely: #10 Velez 3-1 11th Best Value: #1 Tubal 8-1 3rd Next Best: #5 Pontus 6-1 5th Exotics Use: #3 Boy of Summer 6-1 WON ($9.60) Hi-5 Play: #9 The Best Monkey 12-1 4th <$50 P5 Play: 5: 2-4-7 6: 2-3-5-10 7: 3-6 8: 1-3-10-11 9: 10 3x3x2x4x1 = 72 x.50 = $36 <$75 P4 Play: 6: 2-3-5-10 7: 1-3-5-6-7-8 8: 1-3-10 9: 1-10 3x6x3x2 =108 x .50 = $54 Good luck!

Nice Job Steve! I was particularly interested in seeing Half Heaven's first foal win so convincingly at first asking.
What a mare Sand Pirate was, producing HH, Sweet Vendetta (Black Eyed Susan winner) and 400K winning NY staple Love Cove. No surprise that the apple didn't fall far from the tree. |
