Finally out of the red with Vinda Machine scoring.

Best bets: $64.00 wagered. $30.30 returned.
Longshots: $64.00 wagered. $98.70returned.
Total: $128.00 wagered. $129.00 returned.

Thursday, September 3.

Best bet: Race 10 - #4 Harlem Heights (5/1 ML). This 1/2 sister to Point of Entry should like the surface switch to turf.

Longshot: Race 7 - #5 Five Alarm Robin (8/1 ML). This race looks fairly competitive but Kitten of the Sea removes her blinkers and that may allow Five Alarm Robin a relatively easy lead. Now late into her 4YO year, I’m hoping this one has improved a bit from her 3YO year and is ready to take another step forward. She’s certainly capable.

Point Of Entry is the greatest heavy metal album you’ve never heard in your life.
Point of Entry passed a huge percentage of the hosses he faced. He was awesome

Let’s go with:

Best bet: Race 5 - #6 Constitutionalrage (10/1ML). A horse sired by Constitution out of a Tiznow mare and trained by Barclay Tagg. None of the other horses look like anything special and I like the pedigree and works here.

Longshot: Race 2 - #6 My First Grammy (8/1 ML). Key Stat: Mejia and Benji have won 100% of their starts together since August 29th. But really, this horse is talented enough that he was placed into the Florida Derby as a maiden. While he’s no Bodexpress, he’ll appreciate the class relief here. And while the drop in class is massive, this one was purchased for only $57,000 two years ago. That’s less suspicious to me than the class drop for the favorite Long Term Thinking or the $20,000 tag for Advance Notice, purchased for $350,000 two years ago. Maybe none of this means anything, but the figures alone at least put him in contention.

One of my good friends growing up liked Judas Priest but I never got into them. I’m 34 though so I think his dad got him into them and they definitely weren’t one of my dad’s favorites.

Friday September 4.

I’m really trying to focus on the Derby card so I haven’t looked at these much. So take them with a grain of salt.

Best bet: Race 9 - #13 Uncle George (4/1 ML).
Longshot: Race 10 - #6 Playtone (15/1 ML).

Got caught up with work the last couple days.

Best Bet Race 7 #8 Thin White Duke - Think the 6.5 should be perfect.

Best Value Race 10 #6 Playtone - Last was so bad but I have to give one more chance. Interesting on the stretch out with Joel but admittedly just a stab/chase.

I was going to do a little write up on Churchill but honestly the card seems perfectly straight forward to me. Don’t plan on getting too involved until tomorrow. Will try to post some thoughts in the morning.

Good luck everyone.

Best bets: $68.00 wagered. $30.30 returned.
Longshots: $68.00 wagered. $98.70returned.
Total: $136.00 wagered. $129.00 returned.

Best bet: Race 9 - #7 Mystic Guide (4/1 ML). If they both run, the two Pletcher horses are going to be heavy favorites so I'm looking elsewhere for a little value. I've liked Mystic Guide for a while now and think the addition of blinkers here could help him be more forwardly placed, which should help him going 9 furlongs here.

Longshot: Race 5 - #8 Officiating (10/1 ML). A horrible start to last race but he finished impressively. This could be a competitive group but this one is full of run.
