1/8: Gulfstream (P4); Santa Anita (C/O)

[Kasept]

Had all 6 winners somewhere in selections for the Aqueduct Carryover Wednesday, but going 4 of 6 on the $144 play shows why the workable series produced an overlay return of $20,000+. While it wasn't hard to identify likely winners, it was quite a bit more challenging to build a ticket that included them all... My 3rd choice won 4 of the races, while the 2nd choice won the other pair. That wasn't good enough for the sextet, but it was OK for catching nearly a 5-1 return the $240 Late P4 ($54 play after an early scratch in R6). Hope you did well...

Potentially important 3yo ALW's at Gulfstream today (6th/8th), and the P4 is exceedingly tough. $100,000 Santa Anita carryover may be the play... Both below.
