Rosehill...

Sitting out The Schweppervescence (r1) cause it is just coming up too soon.

Only a couple of plays and keeping it simple w/ win bets for the most part.

R2, Moriarty

R3 (Sebring Stks)...Sorry Temple of Boom have to go with Hot Snitzel. M/l is 6/1 and so doing a win bet and a tri with ToB and Bull Point.

R4, Catkins is at 4/5 so no point in playing.

R5, which is now and very nicely called the Nathan Berry Tulloch... Vilanova to win.

R6, bmw, I'm going with Voleuse De Coeurs. Love love love Silent Achiever, Dundeel, Fiorente, and Foreteller BUT...

R7, Vinery Stud... you show them, Rising Romance!

Doing something I rarely do and tossing 10.to show on All My Loving.

R9, have to stay away cause I cannot let the fan thing kick in and the two I like are 50/1 and 30/1 so I will just be happy if they do well (Lucky Chappy and I'm Imposing).

R8 is the Golden Slipper and I know how good Earthquake is but I do like Eloping and Law so so far did an exacta with those three on top and tossed in Oakleigh Girl and Bring Me the Maid underneath but am still pondering.

Good luck if you're playing and happy Golden Slipper Day.

I have it on while I sit here handicapping. I will be rooting for all of Tommy's horses to win.

I haven't followed much of the racing over there, except here and there articles so I really have no preference except for maybe Earthquake to win, but would be thrilled even more if Valentia were to win.

Good luck to you though with all your wagers.

So proud of Silent Achiever again. What a great mare she is.

Rising Romance was a little disappointing, but had a bit of a troubled trip and finished quite nicely. I think she'll be a lot better in the Oaks.

Absolutely. God why did I doubt her???

Excited to see how Puccini does this time around.

Wow some field for the TJ Smith!

(edit - 6 minutes till r1... going with I Am Snippety. She's at 8/1 right now (had been 15/1 on the m/l). Okay good luck kids).

* * *

Trying to narrow this down...

Bell... Like Miss Tenpins, Bound for Earth and Dublin Lass. Will keep an eye on the odds but it's down to those three (Flight Academy underneath)

Chairman's H... tri... Sertorious / Hippopus / Lucky Liason, The Offer

Sires Produce Stakes... Time for War, Believe Yourself and Peggy Jean.

For the Derby... Puccini, period. Forget Criterion and the rest. I can't be objective. Stupid but true.

TJ Smith... I'm thinking I'll just box Snitzerland (who I think will win), Buffering (who very well could) and Steps in Time (cause I can NOT leave her out no matter what).

Will use Gordon Lord Byron in the 2nd spot (where he belongs ) (along with Lankan Rupee) and then a few underneath (still playing around with it).

For the Doncaster Mile God help me if I play Hawkspur he won't hit the board and if I don't he'll win.

Going elsewhere... looking at Royal Descent.

Weary, Speediness, and Messene would be heavily backed, I'd imagine, but I might go the more sentimental route and use Streama or My Kingdom of Fife. Still looking.

Knox... Lady Cumquat, Estonian Princess, Arabian Gold and Role Model. Need to take a break and try to figure out how to play these four.

Good luck if you're playing tonight and come home safe, everyone.

Well that was some win by Lankan Rupee! (Of course I didn't have it).

Awww how sweet he is.



Nice win by Peggy earlier.

Good luck the rest of the way if you're playing.
