8/13: Saratoga (Day 19-Hall of Fame)
 

Hit the early P4 Thursday for 'real money', and enjoyed one of those good kinds of days that are necessary at a meet like Saratoga to build the bankroll. Best Value 2nd choice Valiant Passion was usable in the MSW 2nd race at 15-1 with Ralph Nicks adept at sending babies out ready. When she went off at 30-1, the $63.00 win mutuel was a gigantic bonus and led to the boffo P4. Two obvious chalks followed the tote explosion ahead of $20.20 Al Stall trainee Heritage Hall, who flew home late in the 5th and delivered the best of the 4 possible winning outcomes for the ticket at $1.971.50. P3's within the sequence were nice as well, with the 2nd-4th returning $257.00 and the 3rd-5th $96.50. Missed the late P4 because King Andrew failed to get by Surfing Ian in the 7th, but the day was a good one and I know a number of ATR listeners and Derby Trailers were riding along... Hope all did well!

Good luck!
Steve

i think your late pick 4 #'s are screwed up....i'll be playing today...looks hittable

What's up with Lezcano? Ever since the Belmont, he sux big time.

Can't see what might be screwed up about them... unless my opinion is just bad.

Good luck.

Steve- I think they are referring to you have the race numbers listed as 7-10 on your pick 4 selections instead of 6-9...

To steal the Dos Equis line- Stay Hot my friend..

The numbers of the races are incorrect. I believe it should be
6
7
8
9

"The sharks have a week devoted to him."

There you go... Thx! Was going over the program numbers and transcription of the includes and couldn't figure out what Tanner meant.

Steve, No love for Crowned general in the first?

Steve,

No love for Cockeyed Rooster in the 6th?

No... And no. (I spread my love very selectively.)




Both OK though and I wouldn't talk anyone off using them...
