Yes, PVal and Chris Antley are good comparisons. Troubled but mega-talented

Interesting history indeed, but what does this mean for Saturday\'s early Pick 4/Pick 5? Play or fade?

The chart was updated posthumously to add the voided claim. I swear I saw Rudy claimed him on the initial version.

I noticed that Spirit Animal is entered in the 2nd on Saturday at the Spa. Chad and Klaravich dipped him into a $50k claimer for NW3 last out, and he won easily. He paid a generous $5.50, probably because people were cautious about the drop. He was reportedly claimed by Rudy Rodriguez that day. How did he get back into Chad\'s barn? Maybe I just don\'t know what a \"waiver claiming\" race is?

To the moon, one would think. But it\'s Baffert...

Yes, I got what I paid for. I didn\'t choose to pay for the Santa Anita product on a day with so few entrants. I focused on the out of town races. Not that it did me any good...

I agree the racing at Santa Anita is horrible right now, no argument there; but what $49 exacta are you referring to? The pick Roger gave out missed, the race was won by the Baffert chalk.

Ask the Experts / First time synthetic
« on: May 19, 2020, 09:43:11 PM »
I hate to redboard, but there may be a learning opportunity here. I scored a heavy Win bet on Facts Matter in the last at Golden Gate on Sunday. He won and paid $15.20, a nice \"get well\" bet for me. To be honest, the reason I bet him was that I met the original owner at Angels Stadium in my season tickets section before his debut and he advised me this was a promising colt. This was back in 2017. I followed the horse for a while and maybe bet him lightly a few times, and then he descended into the claiming ranks, getting claimed a couple of times. I stopped tracking him but on Sunday he\'d been off for quite a while after several claiming wins but then a miserable performance on the No Cal fair circuit. Sunday he was going first time synthetic with very competitive numbers on dirt previously, running off this layoff for a pretty successful trainer that had claimed him back. My score was blind luck because I remembered the horse from meeting his owner in a fleeting moment at an MLB game; but the pattern might be something to take note of?

Horray Pdub. Meet you there this Saturday. Oh wait. Never mind. Meet you at a bar in Arcadia instead. Oh wait. Never mind. Hello from Living Room Downs instead.

Long time no post. Is it that time already? Santa Anita opens tomorrow and on Saturday there are 5 G1 races. There should be some good opportunities for TG Sheet players; I wish I was going. Forecast is for hot dry sunny weather 90+ degrees and light winds.

Yes nice pick gentlemen. And the Pick 4 is paying pretty decent to Richiebee\'s \"banker\" single in the last. I hope he\'s right about that one...
