2/13: Aqueduct (4th-9th)

[Kasept]

NYRA racing looks to continue Thursday after an anxious period of high risk negotiations which resulted in a forged agreement between with the state. Details and formal announcements appear to be scheduled for today, and 'At the Races' will have the lastest in Hour 1 of tonight's show. The alternative to failing to come to terms could have been a drawn out court battle which would have ripped apart racing here.

Santa Anita carryover Monday was won by a single player after it looked like a double jackpot was in offing. Early stunners (Cee's Stone, $34.40; Dewey's Special $23.00 and California Flag $37.80) blasted most out early, including me, before single Gallardo and must include Czechers stabilized the skien. Dan Hendricks, who earlier on ATR Monday had said his Roar of Eagles was 'live', captured the nightcap ($14.40) to send the clever capper home with a $668,690 score.

Lost in the P6 excitement was a big carry in the Super High 5, and Roar of Eagles also helpd key a big hit there with the increasingly exciting bet returning $121,172 to another singular lucky player. It is exactly this kind of result that SA management had in mind creating the Super High 5, which should gain more momentum as the season at Arcadia gets back on track with the repair of the main track.

Aqueduct P6 races the focus today...
