This is the best race meet in North America.

Geroux hasn't been riding very sharp lately. Maybe this course will snap him out of it.

The ninth is a great race today. I'm probably going to go for Like the King. His last on the front end against the flow at Woodbine was way better than it looked. And I think the price will be right. If he wins, I'm gonna get paid. But I could also see Ramsey Solution or either of the Maker horses winning this one.

Can't find the image I'm looking for but it shows the hairpin turns and the undulation of the course. TV coverage i a bit spotty, but they're not set up to do that and the meet is only a couple days.

Huge fields means real big paydays if you can hit.

Saratoga and Del Mar today as well...let's get busy

The 7-Federalist Papers will get hammered here but still a good value in a short field...the dam side pedigree from Ireland fits this course to a tee

Race 4 tons of 1st timers...I'm leaning on the Jocks and the trainers...the 4-Donegal Factor (Cox/Geroux) 6-Mendel's secret (Maker/Gafflione, winner of two of the 3 races today) also throwing in 11-Margrets Burbidge

I'm handicapping in real time but looking ahead to the 8th Race, the combo of Walsh (Who is a serious as heart attack here at this track...ack ack ack ack) and Gafflione makes the morning line of 15-1 really tasty...

I've been betting against stalwart 2 year old trainer Wesley Ward and its worked out recently, but I really like the 2-Red Ghost in the 5th...really improved off his turf debut last out...jock can get it done

Is it just me or has OTE been redboarding a lot of late?

no more horizontals for this place today, and I think The Rapist has a lock on the next one at even money...no wagers

I think Sloppy Joe's horse could get on the front and wire this field. The Rapist is way too short at even money.

And now I have a hankering for Sloppy Joe's
