Win streak attempt

Not a whole lot of action to choose from on Tuesday.

Standout of the day for Tuesday:

Hoosier Race #2: Crimson's Roar

There are some things that should turn bettors off with this one: He's been laid up for over a month and a half with no workouts, barn change to a guy who hasn't won off the claim, and just a 5% jockey in 2012 (17 wins from 325 mounts)

However, the absence from racing is because he's been waiting for Ellis Park to end. The absence of any workouts the last seven weeks doesn't bother me, and the human connections don't bother me.

Won and paid a monstrous $3.20 -- once again the 5/2 morning line didn't come close to holding up when I thought maybe it might.

5 down, 5 more to go.

To quote Bon Jovi "we're halfway there ... woooo ohhh, livin' on a prayer!"

There are four probable contenders for today... two of them at Thistle Downs, the Baffert horse plunging in the 1st at Del Mar, and Ron Moquett's Biker Boy at Hoosier.

Biker Boy makes the most sense -- but I hate his trainer.

Lets go Race #2 at Thistle Downs -- Angel''s Rock is a Calder shipper who is facing a bunch of bums at Thistle Downs. The outside horse is going 1st time dirt -- but everything else looks hopeless.

Thistle Race #2: Angel's Rock

$2.60 to win. Keep up the good work Doug.

Biker Boy also paid $2.60 -- the other standout at Thistle paid $2.80 as jockey Seabury tried her best to be a human anchor -- the Baffert scratched.

6 down, 4 to go.

Lets go to Finger Lakes in search of the 7th straight day with a winner.

You normally want Henny Hughes offspring 1st time out and sprinting -- but Teahupoo plunges down and catches a field of complete bums. The only horse with even a remote looking chance is the #2 horse -- and I don't like the trainer change on that one.
