M4$ May21 Challenge17 (Pook)
Challenge17.
I am the poster for Preakness Day and I can tell you that the race for the Challenge will not be the Preakness. I can also promise that it will not be a maiden race because I have noticed that they don't seem to be too popular with my fellow contestants. Every horse will have at least three North American pace lines. So there you go, Pook |

Thanks Pook for all you do to run the contest and for not posting the Preakness or a maiden race!

Canterbury Race 9 (5:55PM ET)
It seems half of the tracks on Saturday will be experiencing rain. I came up with four good candidates at smaller tracks which call for sunny weather. I most prefer an 8.3 F dirt starter allowance at little Canterbury Downs. The home of some of the lowest takeouts in NA. Hopefully not much in scratches. Good Luck, Pook |

Cby #9
Thanks for posting this one Pook. CBY is one of my favorite tracks. I like the announcer who doubles as the announcer for the Minnesota Vikings of the NFL. Turn up the volume.
Headed to the off-track so I'm getting this one in early. A bit of the speed is scratched. Still we're left with the 2 and 5 and possibly the 3 which I think are matching earlies. They are out. I'm looking for a sustained type who is fast. The pressers are the 6 and 10 who are OUT. This leaves me with the 1,4,7, and 8. The 8 is just going bad and can't handle the pace. I don't like the 7's last race with no excuse. The 4 is going to be too far back. The 1 is my choice to win the race. Tim |

This race should run OTE.
Diodoro has the #4(closer) & #5 (early sprinter). He will probably send the 5 to challenge the best early #2. This should set up the race for either the #4 or #7. If the #7 can run back to previous races, he should be closest to the pace at a better price. My choices are the #4 & #7 Pat |

cby 2
CBY 9 looking for a pressured pace up front
I believe this sets it up for the 2,4,7,10. the 2 and the 7 should get first jump on these. Therefore my choices are #2 Y Ya Gottabedatway #7 Word Racer.

Wish
Not sure about this one Pook , I thank you for a interesting race with a wide mix of horses of ability and from different surfaces and distances,
This looks like a race from The Match Up 2 by Jim Bradshaw I am going to OTE because I cant split the 2 and 5 and the other sprinters just make it a guess. I will go with the 4 and 10. I hope the 10 is not so far back and can run its 3rd fraction like it did in race 7 I would think TUP is a faster track than CBY but still that is a good LPR from a 110.3 POR For the contest, and since I am running out of pass opportunities I will go with the 4 and 10 GS Bill |

Canterbury 9
Thanks for the scratches Tim. I was disappointed to see some of the speed scratch out. But I will stick with OTE anyway. I have a projected 23 something/ 47 something/ 1:11 something from the two Earlies 2,5. Hopefully will run Other Than with 6,7,10 as my best candidates. Of these I prefer 10,7 for the win. 10,7 Pook |

I know what you mean Bill. I was and am thoroughly confused by this race. But I also felt compelled to play this race. I actually changed my picks after I initially posted them.
