I don't get disgusted too often, but that was a pretty sickening scenario. P4 paid $2,550.

It was still a great play. Just unlucky as hell. I feel that way this meet too. It's maddening.

The pick 4 would have paid significantly less had all of the 10's money gone to the 4. The bigger question is how the hell did the 5 win the finale?

He had two efforts last summer good enough to win this. Unfortunately he had run 4 straight non-competitive turf races since then.

'welcome Dave. And you're right. Have been talking regularly on ATR about pairing down plays to lower the degrees of difficulty: Tris if you're normally a Super player; P3's/DD's if you're a P4 player. I've been playing more Doubles than I ever have for instance.

Would have paid less with a win by her too, but I just wanted Toni Knows to run.

As for Warrior Up, she had back figs good enough and was within 2-3 lengths of the major players on current form. Plus, as I've been saying since his eye-opening effort on Majestic Raffy, Wilmer Garcia is very good. That's as valuable a 7# as you'll see.

It is terrible that Toni Knows had to scratch. There are few things worse as an owner than to have your horse scratch AT THE GATE! As for the 5, I am all for looking back, but it has been over a year since this particular hose had run a competitive race.

Tough break, Steve. I think this meet has tested all of our mettle thus far.
