On a very limited bankroll today since I got completely sodomized at the track today but what the hell. Basically, I need Silent Stalk to win in the 5th.

Race 4:

Pick 3 --> 3, 6, 10 / 3 / 4

Race 5:

Pick 3 --> 3 / 4 / 1, 4, 5, 6, 7

Pick 4 --> 3 / 4 / 6 / 2, 3, 7

Exacta --> 3 with 1, 7, 8

Trifecta --> 3 with 1, 8 with 1, 8

There's a thread going on where someone listed the Derby Trail guys who they thought won money gambling on horses.

I was shocked and appalled not to see sdjcom on that list.

Wow, I can't believe the 7 is 4/5.

But that's your style, baby! The ol' rope-a-dope. I know I'm going to log on someday and see that you've taken down a $10,000 trifecta or $100K Pick Six. You work too hard at this for me to think otherwise.

Yeah unfortunately for me any horse Joy Scott is on is usually an auto toss. But there were a few angles that made him playable.

Have you hit a $10,000 trifecta before?

dean smith · #32 06-05-2009, 10:52 PM

How do you guys handicap turf races differently than dirt? I understand it's the late kick that counts, but I have to admit, I'm lost on the turf.

I just pick the horse with the best name.

You're the first expert I've heard or read who doesn't love Dunkirk tomorrow.

I can dig that. Sometimes I think handicapping is all just a big bull$hitting game. Nobody knows anything and anything can happen. We try and make sense out of the chaos of a calvary stampede before and after the fact.

But seriously, I'm a complete novice. I just didn't want you to think I was ignoring your question.

I don't know how much the experts put into this, but when dealing with horses racing on turf for the first time I heavily consider the horse's Tomlinson turf number. It doesn't always work, and it's certainly not the only thing to look at, but there have been a few 10-1 shots that I've had come in based on the Tomlinson number.

Why doesn't RUSSELL Baze ever pilot anyone in the Triple Crown and/or Breeders Cup races? Is he afraid to fly or something?
