Early DD Mountaineer 1/22
 

In the opener i'm going to use the 7 and 10.The 10 doesen't like too win to often but the horse has been racing better than anyone in the field.The 7 intrigues me since 6 furlongs is his best distance.In the 2nd i'm using the three ouside posts.The 8 and 9 havebeen running well lately and the 10 is dropping and picking up Whitney who came back from the break on fire.The early double 7,10/8,9,10.Good luck.

Looks like some great value in the second race, 10 is 8-1 ml and there are other contenders at decent prices. I'm gonna play the 4 in the first, I don't think he's as bad as his PP's and the trainer change doesn't hurt. DD's are 4/10 w 4/7/10. Good luck tonight.

2-10-5-9 ex box in the 1st

Did you catch the exacta.I'm pulling for you buddy.I'm staying out of the 2nd.Go get em.

$3 Exacta, never saw the 1 there, but hey, I ain't complainin!

Great call in the first ... good luck in the second half !!!! I'm not playing tonight but I am rooting for you.

Live in $5 doubles, as above..............go, baby go!

:eek: Live in $5 doubles, as above..............go, baby go!

Minny do you realize that the guy who rode that horse has just won more races this year than last.

Excuse me boys, I'm feeling a little ill right now. That's the Mountain for ya! And yes I now realize the rider on that bomb in the first had not won a race in forever.........but then again, this is the MTN! Had the 7 held on it was $2175 for Skinny, but it was not to be. But the lesson here is that the 4 in the first was not that bad of a horse (see Calder) and the trainer change helped him. Sometimes we all overlook that.

Mountaineer 6th
 

That's my next bet.Seems like the inside is OK and i think there is plenty of speed to mix it up early so i'm betting the 1 to come right back and win.

1 scratched in the 6th....
 

Where are you going now?

Mountaineer 6th
 

The 3 could be the on the pace closer going back to 5.5 furlongs but i make it a habit if the horse i like gets scratched i don't bet.No need to chase.Better off being patient.

The late double.
 

In the 8th the 6 looks to be the speed and the 10 to stalk him on the outside.I don't give much creedence to the rest of the field.In the finale the 7 and 8 show good speed and might knock each other out.I'll still use the 8 but i'm also using the 2 and 3.The 2 ran against the 8 and didn't lose to him by much.The 3 is shipping from Hawthorne for the dangerous Larry Rivelli.The bet 6,10/2,3,8.Good luck.
