Well, what's yet one more C/O flirtation? Got through first 4 legs cleanly Friday but knew trouble was brewing when Linda Rice's 6-1 Make a Decision was getting bet in the state-bred turf route 9th. The Medaglia d'Oro 3yo, who missed the summer turf season, followed his recent ALW win with another good effort and couldn't be denied in deep stretch. Then in a surprising development, 10th race winner Lemon Lashes ($32.00) -- 4th choice for me as an exotics player but left off my P6 play -- was the lone uncovered runner in the pool and everyone has another chance at the sextet with $173k as the jackpot. Leave for California this afternoon with Breeders' Cup ATR live from Santa Anita starting Monday!
