Default I would like to redboard please

Just bet the 3 at Delmar only because of being sired by Purim, who any fan of Sumwonlovesyou knows, is a close friend.

The result was an exacta of $272 exacta with the $96 winner. I just recouped half my Sumone investment yet again by being a DT member.

I'm surprised the horse paid $96 to win on debut. The horse had a 4-star gate drill in its final workout just four days ago by one of the workout report services:

3f:~ in 36.1s - Very STRONG 3 furlong gate drill being pulled for all of the drill and in full stride. First quarter was in 23.4 then under a hold to finish in 36.1 LOOKS READY.

Probably because Art Sherman was 0 for 44 with FTS and only 12 of 44 ITM in the last 3 yrs

Yeah -- he had been ice cold with them recently.

He did have a debut winner at 16/1 at Del Mar in 2008.

He was 12-for-63 (19% wins) and $2.83 ROI with all first-time starters in the year 2007 when he had a much larger stable to work with.

He's one of those guys who has had a reputation solely as a claiming trainer since moving to So. Cal -- and those type of guys often don't get the stock to win on debut unless they jam them into bottom level MCL's on debut.

A 40-to-1 shot won the last race at Del Mar -- another P6 carryover coming.

The late pick 4 paid over $63,000 for a buck.

Happy belated B-Day Root - boy that really sucks. Always seem the "all key" in the last race is your only friend.
