Weather has forced two races off the turf today, although the track looks pretty good. Weather will be an issue tomorrow

Quickly the 2 Miester in the next-6th is a huge value

Today late pick 4 offers some opportunities

Hope you got some of that.

Race 7-OFF THE TURF...pretty even looking at the will pays for the 8, 6 and 9…The 8 Lucky Boss has shown well on the dirt and this one is off the turf...I’m also including the 3 Kiss the Sky, the 7-Xavey Dave and the 9-Speaking Scout on my tickets…always tough to handicap these into a sequence

Race-8…the 9-Chi Town Lady jumps off the page at you and needs to be included. But guessing she’ll get hammered at the window…but keep an eye on the 2-Jumeirah who got pummeled in the Frizette where she was in over her head…either of her 1st 2 races at Montaineer beats this field and at a good price as well…the 1-Jester Calls Nojoy fits as well

Race 9 is a wide-open affair…the 4-Toby’s Heart Has the speed and is in great form, Rosario on board…the 7-Adventuring is also in terrific form and trainer Brad Cox does quite well in these Graded Stakes…the 8-Breaker of Chains is by trainer George Weaver who has a lot of success placing horse where they will be making money…this is one of them…and the 11-Lady Spieghtspeare hasn’t lost in her 3 races

Race 10 Older maidens 7f on the dirt...horses exiting Churchill preps own a significant advantage over other prep places...the 9-Kolsch fits that bill…I also like the 8-Brother Brad dropping in class following his first 3 rather successful attempts

Oh, and the 2-Miester...paid 10.60 for place and 6.60 for show

Apologize, just walked in didn't register all the scratches

Hers's my ticket for $54
2789
129
478
589

Lots more thoughts on the final day to follow...and then a torrent of non sensical Breeders Cup hot takes...that's my job around here

Keep em coming!!!

This 2-Jumeriah is out of Twirling Candy who has a really high rate of success on this course...Speed figures fit, Trainer figures fit, pedigree fits..will pay 7.60 to come in third..reverse ladder bet, meaning $1 win $2 place and $3 show...several times...and a trifecta of 129/129/all for $24

Plus it's that snaky Carlos David. I may jump at these odds.

Yeah, never trust a guy with two 1st names...

oh well...like the 4,7, and 8 here still

478/all/478

Got licked by Navratilova...oh well...small Win/Place on the 8 and the 9 in the finale

Scratches have been announced but not whether they are staying on turf…headed off to wok so I won’t be able to keep any eye on it, but here are a couple horses I like today

Race 2…the 8-Heavenly Hellos…jock Sophie Doyle continues to land mounts with horses that have huge odds, and she consistently gets them into the money…she had a couple of huge winners this meet already

Race 3…7-Countrified adds blinkers and drops in class…the 8-Illustrious, trainer Ward may win the trainer title this meet, and this one has been working nicely on this track in the mornings

Race 8…9-Scarlett Sky lightly raced this year, hasn’t run for 6 months, but won on this course in the G3 Transylvania in the spring and gets the same rider Rosario, up in the irons again

Race 10..the 1-Famed may be a single…Cox and Geroux team up with a fast horse with early speed on the rail, may be too much to overcome, albeit at a cheap price


Good luck today all!

I'm very strong on Freelancer in the 7th. If I can get 3/1 or better it's a triple bet for me.

Also, at Woodbine Dancin' in Da'Nile is cross entered in the 3rd and the 8th. Wherever he goes, I believe he will outrun his odds.
