3/10: Aqueduct ($23k C/O)
In and out day Wednesday with some isolated success, but no multi-race scores as $20-$40 horses stymied $200 worth of P4 tries. At Aqueduct, a $945 quad was available thanks to $42 Citifiesta who upset the 4th and helped trip today's $23k carryover. Gulfstream's sequence was upended immediately by the 'other' first time starter in the race, Peter Pugh's Persian Lime, who popped early and never looked back at 9-1. The P4 there returned $550+.
Finally though, it was trying the action at Laurel that proved to be worthwhile even though the P4 was elusive. Miss Fleetfoot surprised the 8th paying $23.40, and with $17 Baileys Beach before her and $15 Grinnell after, the $1 Pick 4 paid $37,717 (!) from an unexpected $203,194 pool (likely 4 winners). Grinnell was my Best Value top tab in the nightcap, and helped defray some of the day's expenses when he went suprisingly under-bet. An earlier tri key of Hi Ho Bambino in the top two slots snared a solid $182 triple as well, so playing Maryland was absolutely a positive experience, and I encourage everybody to peruse their cards. I ended up down a few bobs overall, but hope you did OK Wednesday... thought it was a fun afternoon. Carryover at the Big A Thursday that in a perfect world ends with Dee Tee's Lloydobler garnering a diploma in the 9th!

Matt, Joe, Coach, Larry:
THX a lot.. I wavered on the single between Ultimo Principe and Possum Impossible and went the wrong way. Wish Possum had broken cleanly at least to have a chance. Hope everyone did well!
