Curlin was the mistake. Pitched Scat & CQ which was OK. Hit the exacta but in this case 2 of 3 didn't help me in the tri.

Completely wrong about Hard Spun. Had him in my top 5, but thought he might get cooked. Fully expected Stormello and No Biz to be the pace setters. Fairly right about some other things, but the worse thing I was wrong about was that I had 3 of the 4 races right in the pick 4, but lost by singling Pussycat Doll, the 1-1 fave and here is the truly horrendously stupid thing about that. I had a win and place ticket on Hysterical Lady, the horse that won that race. (have mercy on me Mr. BTW and Hooves. I promise not to ever do it again!!!). Only cost me $4700, but it's only money, right? Even so, I had a great day. Is there anything like the derby to get your blood pumping?

Well, at least we nailed the turf race preceding that. The Pletcher 6/5 was a total phony.

Lady of Venice would have mopped the floor with this group, I'd like to know why Biancone scratched because he doesn't usually do that for no reason.

Wrong about Cowtown Cat

Right to draw a line through the Blue Grass for all parties, right to play the lynchpin angles of my handicapping life (third off the layoff, win over the track, and recent sharp work over the surface) and pick the logical Street Sense, right about Hard Spun and Curlin.

Might fold the tent and call it a year for wagering
