Talking Kimmel Today 7-10

Hello fellow trailers,

I have absolutely no handicapping skills. Some people bet on names, numbers, the look in their eye, or if the horse cuts a dump in the post parade. I am about the same way in that I only bet the horses I work on.

We have TWO in today. "Spring Illusion" in the 5th, and "El Sultry Sun" in the 8th. Both of these horses have an "all business" attitude and both should do well.

Can sombody (with reasonably good handicapping ability) give me two others that will complete the trifecta in both races.

Thank you so much.

LOL.. I remember using that one when I went to the track with my grandfather as a kid!!
Good luck with your horses today. I don't have other horses in the races for you. I recommend win bets instead.

Oh yeah,, I'll do straight win bets for sure, but I guess I forgot to mention that I am also VERY GREEDY,, and I suffer from something called V.O G. (Visions Of Grandure)... hahahaha. seriously though,, I don't see these horses any worse than third today.

Thanks for reply,

I like Better Again in the 5th who is capable of pushing Spring Elusion or rating off the pace which it appears she has just learned to do. Plus she got beat in her last by 8 but by Music Note! Numbers are more than competative here. I also think Skylighter is good to look at. While she is coming off a career top, she has had 8 weeks of very solid works to recover from this for a solid barn.

Gee Thanks,, I'll do a tri-box with those,, besides my win bet of course. Spring Illusion might get beat 100 lengths but she'll always perform to the best of her ability,, PLUS I know she's in good physical shape,,, so at least I know I'm startin' off with something good... LOL
