NYRA has abandoned the New Years Day free calendar giveaway and is selling
these calendars for $3 a pop starting today, so I will be making my final
appearance at Park Ozone for 2014.
There is $50 left in the ADW account, a sum too trifling to carry over to
2015, so a P5 seems in order.
R1. Will be going feline here, using the spawn of Bluegrass Cat. Just want to
mention, but not bet, Starago, who has a lovely pattern -- he has regressed in
each of his lifetime starts -- and Keyaly, who will be trying to find the
winner\'s circle in lifetime start #59.
R2. Very obvious here -- the Albertrani entry and the KMac Tapit getting Lasix
in her third career start. Taking a gamble here throwing out 9/5 fave Doukas,
by far fastest in the race, who goes from a wide post for the ice cold Rudy
Rod barn.
R3. Gravesend Hcp. The two favorites/co-highweights are Salutos Amigos and
Dads Caps, each carrying 124 in a showdown of Jake and Rudy, the two most
usual suspects. Might give the edge to Dads given his Inner Dirt experience.
These two visit TG negative territory frequently, the competition never has.
Also using Crafty Dreamer, who loves wide trips. CD was only beaten by SA by
3/4 of a length on the IDT on 4/12/14 on a day he was giving SA 2 pounds; CD
gets 6 pounds from the co-faves today.
R4. Singling Socialsaul, who has won 5 of 7 off the Jake claim, winning on
three different surfaces. Drops back with 10K claimers today. The single
digit TGs look imposing here. Either runs off the screen or up the track.
R5. Going ALL here, looking to beat what looks like a bad 7/5 favorite...
5,9/1,4/2,4,5/8/All = 48
Peace, good health and good luck to all my fellow T-generates in 2015.
