![]() My favorite night of the week is upon us. Moderate success last Friday on a chalky early 4 play and a big score was out there as the late pick 4 paid over 5k. Which included a $42 Montaleone horse that some of the late nite DT crew had. I know I was kickin myself for going to bed early and not putting in a late 4 ticket.
Not really thrilled with the Early 4 tonight as it includes a 2 year old Maiden filly claiming race. Here's a quick look and hopefully I will get to take a good look at the late 4 today because I really don't want to invest to much in the early play. 1ST 6F 40K CLAIMER 6 COSMIC QUEEN-$320,00 purchase running for a tag for the first time. Best Beyers in the field, the shades come off for this 3 year old that looks like she could race on the lead or rate. 5 NINE TO DINE One of the speed horses in the race. She is jumping up a couple of levels and seems to be in good form. 4 AROSEHASITSTHORNS She might have a chance at a price if the race should melt down. First start in Cali coming over from the Turf Paradise circuit, where she did run 3rd in a minor stakes race. Slow work on the poly on 5/11 is a bit concerning, but I'm hoping the price will be right. 2nd 4 1/2f MDN 40K (2 YEAR OLDS) 3 SEEUAT STICKNSTEIN Captain obvious horse that will probably be odds on. DQ from a victory on 4/29 and trainer is winning at 33% clip with horses making 2nd start. Has some speed and should be near the lead 9 SWISS RECORDRan 5th in that 4/29 race while breaking from the rail. Gets an outside post and adds the shades. Also sports a bullet on 5/19. I'm personally not a big fan of these races. I'm making a stand and only going 2 deep in this race. 3rd 7 1/2F CLAIMER12.5 3 ALL SET Making first start for the Ayers/Mullins barn. Front running 5 year making 3rd start off the layoff. Drilled a bullet on 5/14 and has hit the board in her 2 starts in 09. 5 LOVELY OLIVIA Slight cutback for this competitive 5 year old. Has hit the board in her last 6 starts, Beyers are a bit lite, but she always seems to be there. Playing against the 9 THREAT. Has burned a ton of money in her short career. Was competitive running for 25k at Santa Anita, but is dropping off a freshening. Add the extra panel to the equation and I'm playing against. She will probably win by 13 now. 4th 7F MDN CLAIMER 40K 7 HE DID Ships south after runnng at GG in his first 5 starts where he hit the board 3 times. Also dropping in for a tag for the 1st time. 9 WARREN'S TONY R Back in for a tag after 3 unsuccessful attempts in M Sp Wt company. Coming off a layoff and has been competitive in the claiming ranks. Bejerano takes the call which seems to be another positive as he and Gutierrez are 1-1 for the meet together. 5 MENDOTA BAY They thought enough of this colt to run him in a stakes race as a maiden. Finally gets some class relief and the Barba barn is off to a good start winning with 2 of their 5 starters. 1 PRACTICAL MAGIC Speed, rail, blinkers, drop, trainer 36% turf to synthetic is enough for me. Early ticket 4,5,6 3,9 3,5 1,5,7,9 3x2x2x4=$48 pre-scratches Good Luck.

![]() Matt, I've enjoyed watching y'all play on Fri. nights the last couple of weeks. I'm going to play this P4 with you, except I'm playing for $1 and I'm singling the 6 horse in the first and adding the 9 horse in the third that you respected. Thanks for your service for America and best of luck to you and us. Hollywood early P4 6/3,9/3,5,9/1,5,7,9 = $24

It definitely wouldn't suprise me if the 9 won the 3rd, but I'm making a stand. And to keep the record straight, I have never served in the military. That's just more of a tribute to the men an women who have served. Unfortunately I think they get forgotten on their day because everyone is to busy launching the start of summer.

I'm back this week for the late P4. I'll be out, but the best part about the 'Wood on Friday nights, is I can get in at midnight and watch the whole P4.

![]() I'm thinking the late pick 4 looks kind of chalky too. But here it goes.
5th 1 1/16 O/C 40K 2 HOT N DUSTY Has been 2nd 5 out of the last 6 with the other being a win. Thinking that the extra 1/16 will help this deep closer. 4 LULLABYTIME 4 year old front runner seems to be in good form right now. Should either be on the lead or be in good stalking position. 6th 1 1/16 CLAIMER 12.5 2 CRAZY TRICIA I'm thinking that O'Neill is just trying to get her out of his barn. Has hit the board in all 4 of her Hollywood races. Ran 2nd at 16k now dropping in for 12.5. She will offer no value as she went of odds on last out as well. 6 THERE GOES GEE GEE Finished 3/4 of a length behind CRAZY TRICIA on 5/2. Looks like she has tactical speed. 1 VOODOO'S VISION Still undecided on whether to play this filly. She has some speed, the rail and is on the drop for a trainer that's winning at 36%. Concerned about the distance and the negative rider switch to Miss Stra. On the fence at this point. 7th 6f TURF o/c 62K 2 WINE ON THE PORCH Mitchell runner working well for return off a layoff. Speed horse should end up on the rail breaking from the 2 hole. Last grass race was April of 08, when he ran 3rd in a minor stakes. The top 2 finishers came back to win in their next race. 20% trainer of the layoff the colt is also not entered for a tag. 8 MY CITY BY THE BAY He's another one that should be on the throttle early. He's ran 2nd 3 out of the 4 times at the Distance at Hollywood. 7 RED ALERT DAYFrankel closer will be coming late if the race should fall apart. Has hit the board in 10 out of 13 grass tries (only 2 wins). Working well for his 2nd U.S. start. 8th 6 1/2F MD25K 5 YOUKNOWWHATILIKE Just missed last time out. Makes a slight drop and ads lasix. 1 JUSTALITTLETIPSY Cutting back to 6 1/2 where she just missed on 4/12. Has the rail and sports a bullet coming into this race. 9 GREY CHATELAINE Plunging out of Mdn Sp. Shades on and worked a bullet coming into this race. Tyler B will probably try to go wire to wire with this 3 year old filly that has shown speed in the past. 10 COATCHECK GIRL Dropping from the 32k level where she didn't run badly. Thinking she will be in a stalking position at a nice price. 13 WHERE'S MY LIMO Haven't decided if I will use this 3 year old. I will see how the night is going and if there are any scratches. This would be strictly a hunch trainer play and nothing else more. $1 late 4 2,4 2,6 2,7,8 1,5,9,10 2x2x3x4=$48 It looks very chalky to me, Hopefully I can make it to that last race where I can maybe get a price. Good Luck.

![]() Yes, that was totally cool....I tried to convince my wife I was a star but she didnt buy it. I IM'd Steve to let him know my appreciation. Although, while I only play Cali tracks I actually live in Lexington, KY. I am spending the extended weekend at Litchfield Beach in South Carolina......life is rough.
See you guys tonight...looking forward to it. |
