Tampa, 2-17

[golfer]

Due to what I believe to be a rotten card at Gulf, after much consternation, I've decided to take on Tampa today (mistake?, we'll see)

Race 1: 1 Passed Over, Knipe from the red hot Pecoraro, if he holds recent form, should be tough. 8 Psychic Star and 9 Say it isn't Sold, both dangerous.

Race 2: 1 Sea Doctor, 5 High on Madison, 8 Coogamonga and 9 Final Order, not necessarily in that order.

Race 3: 7 Little Bog, can improve off short rest bounce, 8 Bring Spring, 0-3-x pattern, can improve 2nd start at Tampa at a price, 10 Texas Gold Digger, dangerous

Race 4: Don't usually play firsters, but 4 Tale of a Monster is intriguing, 6 Classic Moon, shortens back up off paired 14's...7 Island ProspecterBob debuted with 15, Rhone improves them 2nd out... 12 Brickyard Road, gets Lasix off debut 17, dangerous.

Race 5: 5 Chromystic, should improve off turf bounce, 6 Superfly, obviously one to beat... 2 Cool the Heat, nice #'s in Canada, may need a start.

Race 6: 5 Zitlaly, 1st Waunsch, solid Hawthorne #'s last year, 3 Jenny Joy, and 10 Last Valentine.. seem to be the best in here.

Race 7: 3 Rock Cat, comes in well rested, gets weight.. 4 Floresta, 6 Shimmering Chrystal and 7 Bikini Atoll, all look solid.

Race 8: Love the line on the 1 SP Indy, solid dirt debut (9), followed by a 10 on the turf, now back to dirt...4 Miss Tizzynow is similar..5 My Golden Quest, Pletcher is obviously one to beat...8 Runaway Queen, well rested with 1 race at Tampa already..9 Autobahn Girl, very fast for Zito.. (I know, that's half the field)

Race 9: Another tough one, you can single the Pletcher horse 2 Cassydora, or play against with 6 Warrior Girl, 4 Cala Lily, 7 Bright Abundance... don't like 9 Sabelina today.

Race 10: 3 Any Given Saturday, will be tough to beat, use 5 All I Can Get, and 6 James Wilfred
underneath.

Race 11: 1 Summit Queen, 6 Billie Be Quick, 8 Aledo Magic and 10 Bobbies the Best... are the best
in here.

Race 12: Crazy finale with a bunch of formerly fast layoff horses...3 Shakesperean Story, 4 Stevebiscuit, 6 Birdies Best Boy, 7 Lite Brigade.. all can win, 8 Devil's Disciple is the biggest Question mark, off almost 2 years..

This may be a train wreck, but I certainly hope not, and as always, good luck to all.
