![]() I caught Baymont for a $20 win and a very nice triple that summer in a 3 horse blanket finish. Tri was $300. Moorebella was one of the other horses. Schettino trained Baymont.

![]() Turns out I was right about everything except the spelling of the horse's name, Sinkwich. Debuted in 2005, this son of Trippi broke his maiden at Belmont in 2006 on the dirt, switched to turf sprinting later in his career. Finished up at Mountaineer in 2010. |

![]() It's always nice to look back. I'm with Vic, I remember Lady of Venice (Friday Night at Hollywood's Stakes win) flying late as usually. She reminded me of her better known stablemate Gorella -Biancone trained both.
Panty Raid helped me finish a nice PK4 on Blackeyed Susan Day while on the air (ATR with SB).

![]() I remember Rondo around the Kentucky circuit. Once he went to the turf, he was short odds, run off on the lead and fade in the stretch. I think he finally won a couple of races at Indiana Downs. Some of my friends would always "throw him in my exacta and tri" since they are UK fans......don't think it ever went well.
