![]() Blazing Bling won by 9.75 lengths at monstrous odds of 1/9.
2 down, 8 more to go. Staying in the Buckeye state, Princess Christine has lost 15 straight races (9 at Beulah Park, 5 at River Downs, and one at that legendary racing oval Mt. Pleasant) But, Princess Christine has finally "found her friends" in tomorrows 1st race at River Downs and she should help trigger a microscopic daily double. |

http://www1.drf.com/drfPDFChartRaces...=20120901&RN=1 I was a little bummed out that she went off at 1/5 odds -- she was 5/2 on the morning line. I was debating between either using her -- or using the 6/5 morning line favorite in the next race ... but I choose Princess Christine because I thought the 15 race losing streak would translate to better odds. It felt like she might be even money and the winner of the 2nd race might be 1/5. The favorite won the 2nd race by 14 lengths and paid Even money. The Daily Double paid $5.40. http://www1.drf.com/drfPDFChartRaces...=20120901&RN=2 Ah well. 3 down, 7 more to go. |

![]() Standout of the day for Sunday:
Monmouth Park Race #7: Teen Pauline is drawn perfectly and her patient to a fault jockey should sit a very good trip and she buries them with a repeat of her last race. |

![]() Indeed -- the Beyer for the Sorority (6f) was just a 63 and Teen Pauline would have almost certainly sat a perfect stalking trip at 6f...and buried that field.
Instead she dueled going 7f at Saratoga and faltered late in a MUCH tougher (but obviously MUCH more prestigious) spot. There are a laundry list of horses who appear certain winners today -- pretty close to split anyone of about a dozen who look certain. Lets go out to Emerald Downs in the Pacific Northwest -- in race #1 Polish Dollar is stretching out for the first time in a long time -- he owns a significant pace advantage and I don't believe the distance will be any problem. Standout of the day: EMD race #1: Polish Dollar |
