Race 1

3 has too much class to be beat. The only question is the dirt surface.

Yeah the dirt surface.

Thanks Tim.

Race 5 Result

Shotgun approach gets it again. Not the wild score I was looking for but I got my money back plus a bit.

Race 7

Really going against it here. Looking for a complete collapse of all Early horses. Not likely, so not putting too much into this one. If it works, great.
Ex Box 6,9,11

OK, going more conventional:


$2 Ex Box 4-6-8
$1 Ex 4-6-8/4-6-8-5

Race 7 Result

I had it except those two Earlies stayed there.

Conventional works. Nice score Ted!

Pook

Been sitting on my hands all day!! About time (though I sure thought I'd lost the Exacta to your #11!)


Ted

Those Euro jocks are in a class by themselves. Especially on turf. I think they have the biggest balls in the world the way they come through fields inside or outside down the stretch.

Race 9

Ex Box 2,3,5,6,7,8,12

I will jump in on the Classic:

Ushba Tesoro won the World Cup in Dubai when a fellow horse from Japan set a extreme fast pace ; therefore I can conclude that he won the race by default when the pace collapsed.

I will go with Zandon and Arabian Knight. Zandon ran third in last year's Derby and Arabian Knight will try to wire the field.

Good skills

Race 9 Result

A sweet one.

I figured some longshot could finish up close with the 3-12-2 win candidates but crap shoot which one. Could not bring myself to cover the board, thus I passed and watched.

At least you covered your bet Mike!

A sweeter one. I didn't think the 5 could possibly hold here, even for second.

Thanks Tim. Over the two Breeders Cup days I hit 5 of 14 ex and dd plays. I laid out a lot to get them but generally on big days you can spread out. Made a few hundred.

Pook

Nice work Mike. Making a profit over those 2 days is a nice accomplishment.
