I know, but I don't like anyone in this race and if I was a balla it would be an all, I am just looking for some reason to include someone.

The race sets up way better for Eldoktori than it does for The Roundhouse. He's no great shakes, but I'd prefer a horse with some tactical speed to a plodder like TR or SoG, especially with the way these jocks let people go on turf.

Nick took mine, but I'd give Straight Romance a look in the same race. To me, the 9th is by far the most wide open leg in the sequence.

Yeah, it is a cluster. I was using the 1 on the jock switch but now see value in a horse like Straight Romance off a bad performance on dirt, back to preferred surface, nice find

I just don’t see the need to add mediocre horses to a ticket … sure they could win, but nobody is jumping off the form for me. The Roadhouse…. I know this horses is headed in the complete wrong direction, but im interested in hearing others opinions on this race. Stream of Gold seems the only other logical horse to me in this race, but this is also a horse hitting bottom at the age of 9 with 27 lifetime starts, on form he comes off as a plodder.

I dont like Nicks, Straight Romance with Gomez deserves a LONG LOOK.

I expect him to be on or near the lead and just let his experience take over at the half mile pole

A single? Are you crazy? THat horse is like one of 5 who can win, and one of my 3 a's.

There would have to be 3 or 4 $25+ winners for any chance at another C/O. The whales will be out in full force tomorrow.

The Twinspires' Players' Pool is getting involved and they'll probably play 50k worth of tickets, so it's pretty much going to get hit tomorrow, just a question of how much it'll pay.

FWIW on Race 7, the rail horse will offer no value because of the connections but the 2nd dam dropped numerous turf winners including NY bred stakes winner Certifiably Crazy, Lentenor slayer On Vacation, and Certifiably Royal.

The TS Players Pool generally sells out, and I think they capped it at 60k. I am going to put a ticket(s) together and see how good I can do with 60k

I think the Matz horse might be a price. It's risky with Lezcano up but if he's close to 10:1, I'll try him. And definitely use him for 2nd in exactas.
