Gotta let the pp's breathe. Not going to rush it. These are the most difficult (and potentially the most profitable) cards of the year. Horses coming from everywhere. Lot's of work to do.

That's tomorrow night Matt. I just got home, been out since Monday morning so tonight is reunion night.

Doesn't mean I can do some work after they go to bed....

Tomorrow night it is off to bed early and I'll get serious.

It's always the last four races. Except on big days when they screw around with the wagering menu a bit.

Rolling doubles this year.

Coach Pants gets all the credit for this one. Lifted from the What are you listening to thread. I think it is appropriate.

The 4th race is a brain cruncher. Do these top trainers usually show up?

Thoughts from the experts???

I think they are hoping for an easy confidence builder for her. If she doesn't crush these, it's off to the shed.

Probably a bit saltier than they had planned though. She will be pressured from the word go and she doesn't like to pass horses. It may set up nicely for Lil's Lassie or Orinoquia to catch them at the wire.

More often than not, no. IF they (Motion & Clemente) thought their horses had some talent, they'd run 'em in Miami. They usually ship up to Tampa, get crushed at the windows and get beat. You do get the occaisional ones that blow them away, but I tend to play against. Stakes races not included, when they show up for those, they win.

At first glance (I haven't checked pedigrees or replays yet), I am leaning towards the 7 & 8. The 7 will be the second or third choice and the 8 should be fairly juicy.
