Selections from all over 4/25/07
 

Well after one week off I am itching to get back into some wagering. I handicaped Calder, Aqueduct and Keeneland. When I last wagered I was up $919.80. So lets add to that total today.

Well we got that one. I was thinking that the 9 horse might get the best of the 5 horse since he finished only 1/2 length behind the 5 horse last time out. But Centano is riding very well this year and he got the job done on the 5. I think the exacta will pay about $11.80. So I made a profit of $38.00. Not tons but I will take it.

Aqueduct Race 1.

Well the entry looks fantastic. At 1/2 we have to find value in this race. I think I like the tri in this race.

Uughhh 2/5 the entry cannot get it done. good job by Clyde Martin on that 3 horse. Once I saw I was going to lose I was cheering for the boy to win this race. The 5 ran nicely and closed into a soft pace to get 2nd.

GL to all those taking stabs today

Kent is having a nice little meet at Keeneland. Good to see him back on his game. I believe the exacta will pay about $37.20. I made a profit of $192.00.

Nice job by the 7 horse. That darn horse wouldnt quit. Oh well, good job off the layoff.

Will they declare the 8 horse (HOLIDAY MOMENT) a non-starter after being left in the gate?? It looked from the head on that the gate didnt open up properly..

Yeah I saw that. That must be so frustrating to the connections.

BOOM, 43-1 shot wins the 2nd. This would be the 3 horse. Man, she looked good and went very fast. Good job by Luzzi.

Hmm...think the 4 horse might have been the best horse in that race. Ducked inside and only lost by a long neck to the 10. Good job by the 10 horse.

Aqu Race 3

We need to hit one here.

Oh no.....didnt get that one either. One more at Keeneland and if I dont cash in then I am done for the day.

AQU R3

Who won AQU R3? Thanks

Im not playing it but CALDER Race 4

The 2 and 10 look head and shoulders the best in the post parade...

The 4 horse won. Pletcher trained, Luzzi on board and was 6/5.

Keeneland Race 3

Oh good lord was this ever so close between the 1-5-2. I cant split them. Niether can the TVG people. Ended up beind a dead heat between the 1 and 5. I guess I wil take that. The 1-5 exacta paid $36.00. I guess I get $900 back so a profit of $700. I guess this means I get to wager some more.

Thanks

Aqu Race 4

Got to love Tagg's horse in this one with the drop in class. The turf course looks real nice at the Big A today.

Man, had to sweat another one out. I believe it came 7-1-2. Rider on the 7 horse lost his stick about 100 yards out but got the job done. The 2 horse was prob the best. He was trapped behind horses on the rail, moved out and lost by less than a length. Anyway, I believe the exacta will pay about $14.60. So I made a profit of $330.00. I guess I will take that.

Calder Race 5
I have ZERO grasp on Calder today so I am going to go to a little different angle.

Keeneland Race 4

Ok, this is a race I love. I simply love the 2 horse. M/L 6-1 bet down to 9/2. I love the trainer change from Jerkens to Biacone. The 8, 5 and 3 I also like. But for me it is all about the 2 horse. I am not going to play him to win, but will on top in the exacta.

Way Way Way off on this one. This is why I dont bet to win. I believe my selection raced last. Good job by the horse.

Didn't Bernie White Shoes last race less than a week ago?

Aqu Race 5

Here is another race I love as well. I am all about the 6 horse Simply Preferred. Again, I dont have the stones to bet the horse to win.

He did race very recently..Maybe it was just a tune up for this one, but he sure didnt fire today..

Top selection finished last. Man oh man. Good job by Espinoza getting the 5 horse home.

Yes he ran 6 days ago.

Calder 6 - only bet of the day Silkily $100wp waiting for this horse to run short

Good try. Get them next time.

Keeneland Race 5

Hmm...I liked the 6 horse. But Jill just reported that the horse skipped the post parade and went straight to the turf. I wonder if he is a head case. Outside of the 6 horse, there are some great odds. I see this as a great tri wager

$1 tri box
1-2-3-4-6-11

Dang...I knew the tri was the play here. I was torn between the 11 and 5 horse. I went with the 11 instead of the 5 and the 5 wins easily.
