Hope you were able to pull some out of the fire Mags. Rough night for me.  Had pretty much the same winners you did, but did not do well in the gimmick department. O well, it is a new year and a fresh start.

Best Bet Race 6 -#7 Executive Force

Cashed good when this one just b a r e l y got up for 2nd.  thumbsup

As much as it hurts me to admit, the races seemed fair and competitive last night. I was ahead playing Balmoral - got killed playing Los Al and Cal Ex.

One thing I found out about Balmoral - Josh Sutton is currently an auto-toss.

Thanks for posting your picks Mags!

your welcome Tony..glad to here Balmoral was good to you..I've been getting enough winners at Balmoral but gimmicks really do make or break the night most times..I'm looking forward to any early thoughts you guys have at the Big M early on especially if you can post before 5pm as thats my usual leaving time for Saturday Night Balmoral..best of luck in 2012
