SPA Day XXXII / Charles Town Stakes Special*, Friday, 8/22/25

[Trigger]

I did watch all the replays this morning.. and yes it was impressive..but not worthy of that ML jmho. If someone put a gun to my head and made me pick one it would be the 6. Ran on the slop in the maiden breaker.

Some horses love both some like one or the other, it's true, looked good, definitely a bogey.

[JT]

Adding more bets to the SPA 3rd as the 5 & 6 are taking so much money too, brings this race to $108:

Race 3    4.00    EX    BX+1+3+4    24.00
   Race 3    4.00    TRI    BX+1+3+4    24.00
   Race 3    1.00    SPR    1+3+4 / 1+3+4 / 1+3+4 / 1+2+3+4+5+6    18.00

Hopefully a 4-1-3-2 finish in that scenario.. good for both of us

[JT]

Last bigger wager for me before Charlestown.. I call this the Manny Franco special
All/4/All/All/5
$192  bucks.. even pricey by my standards
Total investment for the day $609

Boy's been good to you as of late.

Glad I did the saver, wow the 1 was awful.  346 will pay nice.

At least you got the exacta. Horrible trip for the 1. 3 won for fun. Ultra impressive.

Farrior always one to beat. At least I know #6 can fly from the gate and race is only 4f

ain't that the truth

I stopped trying to bet around him about 6 years ago

the french fry stand with the malt vinegar is right under the ferris wheel you see on the first turn
