Title: Monti Monday
Post by: bello on December 18, 2023, 12:10:54 PM
Funny, with all the crooks allowed to race or drive at many eastern tracks it seems like Monti, Big M, Rosecroft are the honest tracks.

At least no stiff  artists like JACk Pelling and the variety of Juicers racing at YR and all the PA tracks including the Meadows and Dover. Nothfield with Rhoades and Loney is the biggest joke of all

Monti     No Chindano today

Race 1
#3 Proudamericangirl ...driver upgrade
#6 Comezoomwithme... Always formful

dd and p3  36/5/246

I cannot be so fast to toss Adam Moeykens anymore. Definitely on the improve. Brings the 1 home for Monti legendary fixer.

#6 compromised by leaving and taking back. No clue why the 4 was bet to 9-5.

Picking a runner up was tough but if you put a gun to my head I would go with #6...Opos no 6

Nice dink...closer than I thought it would be. Looked real oucy on the track but I'm sure they will find 2 more races for him.

423 LT starts. Pretty amazing

Just watched replay. Still eligible for NW1 and clearly was not supposed to win. Good look, I was watching the 5 first time around

Race 3

#2 Woodmere Jazz...should get easy lead
#4 Bettor Lady...why all the travel?  moves to hot barn
#6 Sweet Ginger...like most of Zekes horses...in and out

Race 4

#8 Senterprise....Hu ge class relief off a win. Not even eligible for this race. My guess is he was eligible for NW 6 LT when the race was written

#3 Marvin B Swift...bad actor is eligible to improve as he gets into a better barn

P3  38/6/23

No way I could make the case for the 1 in race 4.  8 got lazy at the 3/4 and was waitiing on horses. 3 had a tightener and raced well

painful to watch the 6 horse race --- he looked like he could fall down at any step at any part of the track.

race 6

only played the 2 to win ---- he's by far the shortest double and has the most tri money but sitting chilly on the win pool -- FOR NOW
Title: Re: Monti Monday
Post by: bello on December 18, 2023, 02:10:04 PM
Race 6   Agree on the 2

#2 Hunters Gal...slight class drop but finds a very weak field
#3 Grizzz Wylie...is as good as the 2 but Kyle

Race 7

#1 WetheFemale...Wil l be in top and should control the pase
#2 Hurricaneshannon. ..After 3 decades I still cannot figure out if Kyle is a crook or just plain bad. Should sit the pocket here but he could not even get the pocket over Scott Keppler last race.This girl is dangerous with the move inside.

passing on race 8 

3 is the favorite with a few minutes to go -- expect the late money to bomb his odd to about 2-5 and it's not worth it.

The winner #1 went inside 3 or 4 pylons in the first turn. It didn't win him the race so why bother with a 15 minute inquiry and replay the start 9 times.
Same shit as in the past. What is the rule supposed to be ? It's different at every track.

It is true we rarely hear of drugging violations at Monti. Is it because the trainers are a more honest group or is it because the management doesn’t want to spend the money to test aggressively?

The management doesn't want to spend any money to test. Plenty of gas there.

Yep, check out the #5 in race 6 today. And they left him up despite close finish for 2nd.
