Gulfstream's 3rd today, because of so many troubled trips last out, etc, the entire race is a crapshoot.

2-7/2, 10-4/1, 1-10/1, 9-8/1, 6-12/1

[zippyneedsawin]

I like Joppa Flat's in the last.. really interested to see how he does..cause there's another one from his last race running tomorrow. If JF does well today, I think it bodes well for the saturday runner.

JF (7-2) is strictly the one to beat with turf master Castellano aboard given his promising turf debut (despite a poor start) vs subsequent G3 Palm Beach victor Duveen. However, I think there will be value on the board with #2 Zounds (8-10 who exits the same race and makes just his 3d l/t start. This $625K 2yo purchase should move forward smartly off a very troubled trip in that race which saw him checked and rank early but absolutely fly home from the back of the pack in the field of 12 to finish less than 1 length behind JF.

Yeah, Mountain Wolf is the horse I'm interested in tomorrow at Gulfstream (besides those 'other' races!)
--By the way, anyone think 6-1 morning line on Blue Bullet in the Aventura is a little high? I think he's got a real shot at winning that race.

Tap,

In the 3rd, I agree on Roman's Dockmaster, but I still like the #2 Toner's, Blazing Dynamo better.

And in the 4th I have the #5, Valid Trick, as well.

Now, in today's 9th race, I like the obvious, though I'll look very closely at Frank Brother's #4 Winning Apitude, who goes out for his second race, adding blinkers with Guidry. He may be racing him before leaving for Keeneland, still I'll look at this one.

[tap]

Good luck today Grits.

And to you as well Tap.

Anyone see Gabriel Hill drop a major deuce before he was loaded into the gate??? Went on to win @ 30-1...The signs are all around us..Like me not using my favorite trainer's(k mc) charge in the 7th yesterday cost me the pick 4...lol

That makes me sick. . . Gabriel's Hill is on my watch list as a bet-back and I don't remember ever getting a notification. . . and now I can't log in to DRF. . . That 30-1 would've been a nice start to the weekend. . .

H23, and I'm sitting here answering a message, and this cost me.

Don't beat yourself up, like you said earlier that race was a crapshoot. Just as well as Harty's horse stepped up, he could have run 7th as well because this race was SO wide open. So while it may have been the right race to search for a price, it really could have been any of about nine of them.

But props on having him even in your top 5, he wasn't on my radar at all :)

Hey if it makes you feel better, I can't even seem to find the board with any of my picks today. Got a 2-1 winner in the opener, and the place horse in the 3rd, and have been all over the place WRONG with every other horse I've liked.
