10/17: BEL (Showcase/$121 C/O); KEE (Stakes, P4)

[Kasept]

Missed first 2 legs of Keeneland carryover Friday before running the table with rather mundane winners for a $115.00 quad and 4 exactas worth less than $100.00 total. Better than losing... The "6" was hit for $237,000 by a single play, which needed to include the hard to figure $125.00 Argentinian winner of the 6th from Raja Malek and $14.00 Holthus firster in the 5th. Hope you did well...

Last weekend of action before Breeders' includes New York bred Showcase Day at Belmont with added bonus of $121,000 double carryover. This is always a fun betting day at Elmont. Two nice graded stakes, including Phil the Power in the Sycamore, anchor a juicy looking P4 at Keeneland today, and the Calder card is really superb featuring more than $1,100,000 in stakes and many juveniles worth keeping an eye on...

Leave for Los Angeles late this afternoon for a weeks worth of "At the Races" which should bring you the best of the action and info from Santa Anita...
