Very tight race to the finish and JolyB emerges as the winner! RUFFIAN is a solid second. DonGuido is a very close third. Alli nicely rounds out the super.

MEOWZA aka OUCH

I feel like Zenyatta and her final race

But I cannot “BLAME “ Joly for picking the right horses at the wire

[JolyB]

It's a pleasure to luck into a points win the week before a major race day. No need to make a decision about next Saturday's venue. By tradition we always go to Belmont Park for the final leg of the triple crown. The draw for post position [not that it matters much for a mile and one half race with a medium sized field] will be Tuesday and it looks as if there will be a blockbuster card. The only question might be how many races we will want to include in our contest.

Watching the scores unfold it way clear that many of us liked many of the same horses.

Good win JB. The card was fairly predictable but it will probably be very different on the awesome Belmont card.

I’m guessing / HOPING That
you will eliminate the first two races and begin with R#3

Hey Ruff, you have the rest of today, tomorrow and Friday and Sat morning to check for scratches. Easy peasy!!!

DON (“ Hey Ruff, you have the rest of today, tomorrow and Friday and Sat morning to check for scratches. Easy peasy!!!”
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- =-=-=-=-=========

HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH *EARLY SCRATCHES! Days Prior

It’s the early scratches on Belmont day (post time of 9:35 AM R#1)
That makes it a little difficult to decide ROI SUBSTITUTION + POST IT

What you couldn’t know is that
I am up at 3:00 🕒— 🕓 AM Feeding the Cat 🐈*⬛
THEN GO TO SLEEP 😴

Interesting that you question my suggestion …
When you Usually Eliminate early races most days 🙄

I'm not questioning your suggestion. It's JolyB's choice Races 1-11. And I was just giving you a little ribbing. Let's move on to racing. . .
