Title: Pocono 06/29/13
Post by: Mags on June 29, 2013, 12:23:40 PM
not a frequent player at Pocono but this weeks hard to ignore..speed track usually so these races could be tough to cap..we'll see..my likes tonight

Race 2 - #3 Light up the Sky - pushed back last week by tiring foe and claimed for 20 by burke 5 starts ago and hasnt won yet..tonights the night

Race 3 - #3 All Laid OUt - had trot at the end of mile..needs a more aggressive beginning
Race 4 - #2 Northern Mcardle - throw out last 8 hole at Yonkers..his one race at Pocono was a doozy
Race 5 - #4 Heston Blue Chip - had pace but could never get out
race 6 - #1 Arsenal - burke barn and had 8,9,9 posts last3..moves in to be aggressive tonight
Race 8 -#7 Arache Hanover - tossed a 148.3 last week  and was under a stranglehold Baby.
Race 9 - #8 I luv the Nitelife - paced away when asked
Race 10 - Vegas Vacation -  the 1/4 and half times should be rediculously fast..live cover trip
Race 11 - #8 Bettarthancheddar -  4 start back puts him on go for the minister of speed
Race 12 - #9 Smilin Eli - won well in hand after setting 55.1 1st half
Race 13 - #6 Artache Hanover - overloaded but had 9 hole..needs a better position

good luck tonite..man I need a beer after all this typing

Missed it but not surprised. They seriously need to check the distance on this track.

I seen enough of this kid that I wouldn't let him drive my car..

Seriously, it is like sending me up in the 10th needing 3 strikes instead of you.

I can't believe how easy they let Timmy get into the race. The 356 all looked like they could make it impossible for him to get to the lead and the only horse that leaves is the 3 and he breaks. The 5 brushed but just made it even easier for Timmy to win.

Captain parked every step gets up over Vegas Vacation who got away last.   Word Power raced pretty good first over

He's going to be 1/5 in the Pace. No Word Power, No Vegas Vacation, No Fool Me Once, No Sunfire Bluechip, I think we can make a more competitive field with the horses not entered.

I don't know that keeping him on that horse is going to help him long term. And certainly not the horse. I do think he has talent and takes most of the crap because he will always take crap for being Georges son.

But I don't know that this situation is helping anyone.
Would like to see a couple of races with another driver.

I'm definitely not looking forward to the Breeders Crown being back at Pocono. They had all these big races tonight and I didn't bet one of them. I love pk 3's and pk 4's and they just don't offer anything for me to want to bet.

agree Rock and Roll I usually dont wager there but had to tonight..did have the early pick 3 which paid 133 with a 1-9. 2-5 and my 10-1 pick in the third that was posted. Normally I'm ignoring that track and having the breeders crown there defeats the purpose in my book..but if they are the only ones paying for it  4pezz2

I bet one race there tonight and it was only because I thought i could get the Captian beat    slaphead
