It's been two weeks since Uncle Mo worked out on 3/12. Nothing since.

How long does Pletcher usually to work his horses after an afternoon appearance?

What does Uncle Mo's facebook page say about his training schedule?

I don't know, I'll have to wait for a response from the DT facebook whore.

After my wagers today (I knew it was over when Master of Hounds lost the headbob), I sure like the sound of a good DT Facebook whore

He might be busy preparing for the inevitable skirmish with TFM over Beyer figures for some of the lightly-raced 3yos such as Bind.

From Meydan to the 4th at Penn National - I probably bet about 35 races today at 8 different tracks... and have looked at and passed on about another 40 or so races.

No luck at Meydan - I took the Japs in the wrong race.

I picked up $900 on a race at Laurel early on - thanks to winning a photo I still swear I lost.

An 8/1 shot had consistantly been running superior figures to the field - and was doing it by closing into slow paces. The horse was 1-for-34 though - and pretty much a refuser. The favorite had a huge pace advantage in a field of total slugs. The refuser almost nailed me in what would have been a bitter loss because I didn't turn anything.

I was down until the Rahy's Attorney - Muskateer exacta. Ended up $140 ahead after giving a lot more back in cheaper races.
