Will pay anyone?

GL. Getting 9-1 on Discreet Cat, not bad!

[NajdorfDefense]

nice work, I like Wandering Boy and Corinthian, save on Xchanger. can't back DC here to win.

[NajdorfDefense]

Huge move around the turn there, whatta race!
How was DC 3-2? Yuck.

This is looking like a preview of tomorrow. Wild action. I guess 10-cent supers here I come.

Oh well, I tried. Hope you had a decent piece of Corinthian.

[NajdorfDefense]

Had him across the board, nothing huge. I got worried about Xchanger as odds kept rising higher and higher. Corinthian ran so much worse initially after throat surgery, but couldnt' see them entering him here if he wasn't 100% healthy and big overlay with money pouring in on DC. Obv talented with Met Mile win earlier. Just had to get over the surgery and it took 3 races.

Ooh, forgot, won a big h2h on Corinthian at Cris, nice!

[NajdorfDefense]

if you like Lawyer Ron he is +175 h2h2h at Cris v Curlin and AGS, you don't even have to fade Street Sense or Hard Spun.
that line seems off to me.
He and AGS haven't run in the slop b4, iirc, so I am thinking hard about backing off AGS here for tomorrow's action [have small bet on him at 5-1 already]. Or take Curlin at +140 there.

Thinking about Curlin/SS/Hard Spun as my top 3 now.

[rush66]

Naj,

I ended up there with the top 3. Hoped you would too. Just give me the tri so I can call it a day. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

bombs for tomorrow
Arravale 40-1 online now in FM Turf.

Pletcher's Host and Icy Atlantic at 33-1 or better in the mile.

I managed through some swindling today at the track (which offered free entry to Monmouth U students (Friday only), and free beer because some friends worked it on this rainy day) to acquire a clubhouse ticket from someone there at half price of face value and a free reserved parking pass. I'm mostly going to get trashed tailgating before hand, because I know nothing about horse racing. I am the gambling type, bet football every week, and I want something to bet on tomorrow.

Any advice? I think I got the big race ticket im going with

Street Sense and Curlin Exacta Box

or

Possibly Street Sense Curlin and Any Given Trifecta Box

any thoughts?

Any thoughts on the earlier races would be really appreciated.


One last thing. At the track they placed the ESPN commentary booth on 15 yards from the grandstand entrance way. My wasted friend decided it would be awesome to scream [censored] at them as they were live on the air. Hammer Hank was on air and my friend was yelling and screaming his name, and how much he idolizes him in a ferocious manner. The ESPN CREW was going crazy trying to quite him with hand gestures, however as you can imagine this only made him get louder. Hank loved it and went right along with it, even turned around and gave him a double fist pump at one point. Hank left shortly after leaving that Jared guy (I think that’s his name) to receive the wrath of my wasted friend. He didn't handle the situation well, sending death stares at my friend anytime he was off camera, of course only encouraging him. He then made a threatening gesture towards my friend (who's definitely twice his size) and ran to the cops to get them to kick him out. The cop however was enjoying the heckling came over and told him to just not to say anything obscene. You can't imagine how red his face got when the heckling continued for another 20 minutes.

Maybe I'll just go with Hanks picks for tomorrow HE'S THE MAN!!!
