Default 12/20: Gulfstream Park (5th-9th)

Despite a good day overall Wednesday, came away from Gulfstream action bitterly disappointed with my tentative approach to the P5/P4 that left more than $8k on the table. Had no trouble identifying the winners in the eminently hittable sequences, but decision to spend $48 instead of $72 on the P4 cost $1,300 when Jay Eye See won the the 7th. The P5 paid a crazy $7k and a more aggressive attack had obvious potential to access it. The upside is there was a myriad of exotics and multis laid out and I was pleased to hear from a few people that scored well on the afternoon. Thursday sequence was a little less interesting in the handicapping process, but you never know. Hope you did well yesterday!


GULFSTREAM PARK


POST-SCRATCHES


NOTE: REMEMBER THAT GULFSTREAM IS OFFERING .50 TRIFECTAS!


5th: CLM/N3L, F&M-3+, 6f (P5, P3, DD)

Don't trust anybody here..

Best Value: #4 Shirleycee 8-1 6th
Next Best: #2 Maelys Hope 5-2 WON ($3.80)
Exotics Use: #7 Red Over Blue 4-1 5th
Super Add: #5 Mass Invasion 12-1 3rd


6th: OC/N1X, 2yo, 5f-T/0' (P4, P3, DD)

I don't get 5-2 fave Skylander at all. Ton of speed in this too by the way and the one that looks like a stalking beneficiary is Beach Master..

Most Likely: #3 Beach Master 6-1 6th
Best Value: #5 Party Lad 10-1 WON ($12.00)
Next Best: #2 Late SCR
Exotics Use: #10 Sayaad 5-1 5th


7th: MSW, 2yo-F, 6f (P3, DD)

As discussed with Mike Welsch, several well-bred types here working very nicely for debut (Highestmaintenance, Fiorelli) or 2nd outing in the case of Gadget Girl. Five of the 9 seem capable..

Most Likely: #6 Cheyenne Autumn 4-1 9th
Next Best: #3 Highestmaintenance 5-2 WON ($5.60)
Best Value: #1 Gadget Girl 6-1 2nd
Exotics Use: #8 Fioretti 3-1 5th

Exotics Use: #1a Late SCR
Super Add: #11 Dynamic Boy 15-1 WON ($38.80)


9th: MDN CLM, 2yo, 1m-T/0' (Super Hi-5)

Flaxman & Graham Motion offer 2nd time starter & Aruna half brother Pontus (Harlan's Holiday) up for $35k here. Don't see how that is construed as a positive..

Most Likely: #10 Velez 3-1 11th
Best Value: #1 Tubal 8-1 3rd
Next Best: #5 Pontus 6-1 5th
Exotics Use: #3 Boy of Summer 6-1 WON ($9.60)
Hi-5 Play: #9 The Best Monkey 12-1 4th


<$50 P5 Play:

5: 2-4-7
6: 2-3-5-10
7: 3-6
8: 1-3-10-11
9: 10

3x3x2x4x1 = 72 x.50 = $36


<$75 P4 Play:

6: 2-3-5-10
7: 1-3-5-6-7-8
8: 1-3-10
9: 1-10

3x6x3x2 =108 x .50 = $54


Good luck!
Steve

Thanks Steve. Very lucky as I thought it was Bocachicas horse that would blow it up and ended up way back. Gotta be lucky to survive. Great capping as always and that BIG BIG score is coming for you, been to damn close lately.

Happy Holidays!

Nice Job Steve! I was particularly interested in seeing Half Heaven's first foal win so convincingly at first asking.
What a mare Sand Pirate was, producing HH, Sweet Vendetta (Black Eyed Susan winner) and 400K winning NY staple Love Cove. No surprise that the apple didn't fall far from the tree.

Dave.. Thanks and my pleasure. Was a nice day that again had potential to be insane. One P5 winner for that $61k... Good work rolling the P3's. The $1,200 sweet. Will try again tomorrow!

Thx Dan. After yesterday's dreadful effort from the Melnyk Speightstown/Tweedside baby, I wasn't sure what to expect.. Was he going to want longer? Grass? It's weird. When I really try to rely on these Pletcher cadillacs, I feel like I get burned. In both directions.. for or against.
