Default 11/29: Aqueduct (4-9); Hollywood (5-10)

A fabulous Holiday Weekend winds down today, but not before two more excellent stakes including the Gr. 1 Hollywood Derby, arguably the best event over these past 96 hours of dynamite action. Saturday, Kodiak Kowboy may have closed out his campaign for the Sprinter Eclipse with an ultra professional claim of the Cigar Mile over a polished group. Adding this to his Gr. I Vosburgh and Carter wins and Forego runner-up effort, makes Rick Porter's Posse colt tough to deny a trophy.

Earlier, Rich Migliore was brilliant front-ending Godolphin's Flashing around the Big A to nab the Gazelle, 20 years after his he first won the elite distaff event on Tactile for Dickie Small and the Meyerhoffs. The New York 2 year old races went to Buddy's Saint (Bruce Levine) and Tizahit (George Weaver), but neither were as impressive as the Kentucky winners of the Golden Rod and Jockey Club.

Churchill closed out its' fall meet, and training titler Dale Romans was dominant as Sassy Image won the Golden Rod like a pro 90 minutes after his Lost Aptitude demolished the turf Grand Canyon. Bernie Flint's Sheer Beauty (10-1 ML) was bet like everyone knew winning the Caressing before Todd Pletcher's Super Saver turned in a stunning effort in the Kentucky Jockey Club.

At Hollywood, the Turf Festival rolled on with a popular win for Juddmonte's Ventura in the Matriarch. While running under Humberto Ascanio's name, most considered the effort Bobby Frankel's last true start in the Chester House mare's final career spin. She ends her racing days with an outstanding 21/10-8-1 record for more than $2.5 million in earnings. Earlier at Inglewood, as I suggested Friday on ATR, Bridgetown did faulter in the Generous as Kathy Walsh's emergent Who's Up bested the set.

The wagering was solid most of the day with Aqueduct's action going thoroughly my way. Missing the late P4 at Churchill live to 6 horses was very disappointing however and coast the bankroll a $600+ boost. Hope you did well and are ready for yet one more afternoon of quality racing!

Hats off to HOL's Martin Panza. This is as ideal a group for a race like this as can be assembled. Too many inviting prices lined up here, so don't settle for just chalk. Remember they're going 10 panels, so look for ground-savers and breeding..

$50k carryover Wednesday with move to the Inner..

First half of the day falls pretty flat at Big A.. You know it's a bad day when Pat Quick wins a stake.

But the Iggles pulled out their game, and the Giacopelli horse at CRC saved the bacon in a big way, so things looking OK with HollyPark the focus the rest of the way. Hope everyone is having a good day...

Rock Hard Ten is clearly a very nice turf sire. The Mailet was one of the two RHT bombs who won on the turf. The CD nightcap yesterday was won by a RHT first time turfer at a price.
