Same connection have one in the 5th race #4 yet they have Lamkin training and Sutton driving.

BTW I got your joke and it may just be true in more than one way  rflmao1

Race 2  #4 Mackenzie's Power--should be in line for a good trip here.  #7 Boiler Heidi Ho-has been racing decent,  #5 Star Gazed- in cheap enoughto be heard from  #2 Hazel May- did fire out last time much earlier than normal.Looks like has one move , and it usually isn't good enough.  #1 Towneline Kenya-4th start off layoff.  Danny has had  a little more time to work some magic. Can't discount, but must improve to have a shot.

Race 3  #8 Safety Net- $47,000 yearling makes 2nd start.  Erv usually sends them out ready. expect improvement here.

Race 4  #6 Tone- whipmaster couldn't get him up last time, maybe this time  $8 Obermeirzilla-not worse than 2nd since comeback from layoff.

RAce 5 #2 Lima Rocks- came back firing off layoff-looks like should handle these.

RAce 6  #1 Itzalassi- very dangerous from rail  #2 Hues Artistic Lady- needed last 2, moves in, should step it up  #5 Kimberly R-can handle these with  a proper drive.

My play for now.

4-5-7/8/6-8/2/1-2-5

I do want to check a few things at the track.  Things might be clearer then.

Good luck to all playing.

Race 4 Question....

Not too familiar with Balmoral trainers, but why would Widger take the #9 Shax over the #8 Obermeierzilla? You think this was really trainers decision?

maybe Widger is being loyal and driving the Willis owned horse(9).

Be careful with this one, I'm not saying she won't win but here are my thoughts.

#1. Erv is miles away from here. #2. This horse is here because it has some major problems and can't

compete anywhere else or she is just too damn slow. #3 She is not an IL bred so that rules any thinking

of her getting ready for IL bred races.  I know she might just win by default cause the rest of the field is

so sorry and her 1st race was pretty good nice last 1/2 and last 1/4 . Anyway good luck .

Widger Q'ed the 9 and he chose to drive the 9 over the 8, he had his choice.

If I liked playing multi race bets, which I don't, I would have to play the following:
1-4-5-7/7-8-9/6-8-9/2-4-7/1-2-5-6

I'm guessing Widger disagrees  idunno  He must of had plenty left in the tank with the 9 in that "Q" ?

That could be true, but with 9 months off, and his only win against NW1 for 2800 a year ago, I have to let him beat me....He could stick his nose behind the #8 the entire mile and outkick him, but if that happens, I lose.....simple as that,lol

OK ....here it is ....1,2,3,4,7 x 2,3,6,8 x 1,6,7,8,9 x 1,2 x 1,2  = $200.00 for fitty cent.

As my good friend told me earlier, might as well just light it on fire  rflmao1 rflmao1 rflmao1

For the 2nd race tonight as they start the PK5: How many minutes will elapse from the time they show 0 Min to post and the time the race actually starts?

I say 16

I probably wont be able to watch but if someone does please post the answer.

Well that's a start....but that's $216 for 50 cents......

My ticket is currently $180 subject to changes/scratches, but unless it hits it may be my only bet all week.

Good luck. Another carryover may require the ITS syndicate to get back together.

Man did I feel lost trying to cap Balmoral.
Anyways barring late scratches here goes.

Post by: GalloBlueChip on February 22, 2012, 04:26:42 PM
Well, came up with these for fitty cents.....

2 with 1,4,7,8,10 with 1,6,7,8 with 1,3 with 1,2,5 = $60

1,2,4,5,7 with 4,7,8 with 6,8 with 1,4 with 1,3,6,8 = $120

Race 3 is really a Horror Show and probably the toughest leg with the Field a robust 5 for 74....and I'm tossing Lima Rocks in Race 5 mostly because everyone will have him, but also because the #1 HAS to be right there from Post 1..............

Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
