"Hat" tip on Fathers Day
 

Today is a route (dirt or turf).

"Rich when there are sprinters present in the race it is EXTREMELY difficult for an early route horse to wire the field.Look for the winner to run "other than early". - Jim "the Hat" Bradshaw

Happy Fathers Day:)

Thank you Mr Bradshaw

Happy Fathers Day !!

Bill

Mr. Bradshaw,

I echo Bill's best wishes. Also, I miss your posts! I've been wondering what happened to The Hat. Why he hasn't been seen in these 'parts' for some time. I hope all is well.

Best regards,

Jon :D

Here is the FAVORITE in Arlington's 8th race that just ran 5 minutes ago.

Pure 100% EARLY

Here is the EARLY SPRINTER Jim talks about in the opening post here man.

LOOK at him and his first call ok?

Spells doom for the 7 who is heavily backed. ;)

now here is the WINNER of the race paying a FAT $22.00.

Check the sprinter 11's first calls where he ran good.

22.2
22.3

now LOOK at THIS guys good races going OTHER THAN EARLY. Check the FIRST CALL man.

See it?

1) FAST SPRINTER with Other than early style (preferred here)
2) Power Line - Line 2
3) Power Move - Line 3

$22.00 winner came like a freight train and mowed em all down LATE.

Thanx Hat. :)

Arlington pp's
 

Here are the full Pdf pp's for the card for anyone wanting to look at the race.

I would post up the pp's the regular way but Woodbine and Charlestown are about to begin.

Rich:

I was surprised that the # 11 horse did not cook the favorites goose #7 early on since he was a winner from on the lead only as demonstrated in his only win races. The # 7 horse was weak in two areas, he will lose if forced to fight for the lead early and he will lose if pressed closely especially if the presser can challenge him at the top of the stretch. The #11 horse ran an early pressing race maybe not so good for him since he really shows no Power Move race late in a race but good enough to weaken the favorite. The winner #4 horse had the perfect running style-presser/sustained presser with the necessary speed and very strong late Power Moves: after the half and top of the stretch.

Sometimes things happen the way we figure and we win; sometimes things happen somewhat different then we figured and we still win; and sometimes we just lose.

I love this pastime,

Robert

So I take it you just ignored the fact that the 4 had never run on the turf.
