From OKC: Belmont (Late P4)
 

Just capping BEL/REM for today from here in Oklahoma City... Belmont 6th a 'can't miss' race today with VERY interesting/potentially important 2yo's lining up...

GREAT weekend on tap too of course.. Full coverage on "At the Races" tonight.. Internet feed back up and running as of yesterday.. Archives fully restored.. NEW Podcasting Service starts next week!

More soon..

Spend a lot of time in Oklahoma City for business...
If you are in the mood for a steak order the blue ribbon special at Cattleman's in the stockyards....

Posting 'now'...

Paul..

Not a steak eater, but may just make an exception tonight on the recco!

Thx!

9/28: BEL (6th-9th)
 

Scored nicely Wednesday at Sandy with Late 4, and today's version is ultra tough.. 6th a super intriguing maiden event for juvies with some serious horseflesh signed in included Shug-Phipps fave Vacation (#6, 2-1 ML), a Dynaformer son out of Country Hideaway that figures prominantly... Zito pair (1e, 10-1 ML) will go underbet, and rumors are that Nick likes at least one of these a great deal... Mott's WinStar purchase ($650k) Inner Light (#3, 6-1 ML) exits an OK debut out of the important Toga test that produced Paint and Devereux.. Not prepared to toss Frankel-Juddmonte 2nd timer Eagle Strike (#7, 5-1 ML) either off green debut in race that earned DWL's nice Mythical Pegasus his diploma... And Jerkens' Honor Above Self (#2, 8-1) deserves consideration! Enjoy!

Was wondering why you were touting Remington horses. Never been to Oklahoma, probably will show up some day to chase some tornados

Have been embraced by the Oklahoma Thoroughbred Association! Hadn't been in OK since 1985... And Tulsa was where I'd go then.. VERY nice here and Remington is a sparkling facility. Tune in tonight as Donnie Von Hemel and Cliff Berry join me!

I was comparing you're pick with mine...I was tracking Vacation as the #7...just wanted to make sure I have it right. I see you hav ehim listed as #6

He is the #6 7 is the post position

Thanks...I had it down wrong...I'm going to add in Zamarota Princess in the 9th for some value.

Also really like Karakorum Tornado in the 3rd

Thank goodness internet feed back up - how can people find you if you're not there? ;)

DO IT, Steve, buy a cowboy hat! :D

quite a roster of sires for race 6. and the afore mentioned Country Hideaway as mare of the fav Vacation. Frankel has a Storm Cat son in Eagle Strike.

Pewter (Silver Deputy) is really acting up in that post parade. see how he loads.

the DWL entry Jump Commander (Jump Start) is 53-1... let's see if DWL can pull off another shocker.

Zito duet at 17-1.........OMG!!

Slambino was bumped at the start and unseated Castro. He continued to finsh the unofficial 2nd.

Nice job Steve...

Zito,Zito,Zito....

Used 'em in in both our pick4's. Played Byk and a Byk+ (keying on 1,6 in 1st leg)

Nice job steve!

You and me both Mac..I'm not proud:)

Need 1,3,5,10/ 5,6,9/ 4,5,7,8 to bring it home

We (ltjmac, pointman and I) have

1,5 / 5,9 / 4,7,8

And

1,3,5,10 / 5,6,8,9 / 3,4,7,8

Good Luck!

I have the Zito entry starting my p4....need 135/47/4578 to get home...

holy cow...we all get the 10-1 home

Way to go Dave, Thanks Steve for the Zito rumor as I pounded the one with $1 WP...OK, maybe not pounded, but gentley tapped for a nice little score.
