I have Rosario on the 6 in leg 4 and the 5 and 6 in leg 5. I really should proofread before I post.. hopefully Irad gets set down in race 3

Needs to come down. Give Nick Zito and Lane Luzzi their first wins at Spa this year

[Papillon]

You are correct bello. Sorry Pap I posted my ticket wrong on here.. its a/a/a /6/5,6

that helps JT a lot

I felt it was the correct call

It definitely helps.. that was setting up for a losing winning ticket.. if that makes sense.

Good job JT getting Irad dqd, in other news who ever was standing next to Irad while the review was under way I'd like to have my wee wee dq her in several places!   

JT 3 down in 2 of his p5s, nice work.  Woodbine is evil, yes indeed.  2 to go, let's get them home!

Bello is about to light up the board, I feel it!

Our day boys!

Thanks Trigger. All about Pocono and later Scioto for me today.

Gulfstream still alive after 3 legs.. but 3 big favorites have won. Really needed the 10 to hang on in race 2.. need a couple medium shots the last 2 legs

[JT]

Trigger holy shit that is a lot of numbers to type out, no wonder you weren't on here earlier. I'll count on you to let us know if they are winners. If I tried to read that I'd go blind  . Good luck today man. We are due

Great single JT...Bring it home

[Papillon]

Great single JT...Bring it home

your single was a half hour the best

payoff to #5=$410
payoff to #6=$451

not bad at all for short fields--now is the hardest leg

[Trigger]

With my starting bankroll of $5000 for this summer now down to $4789, my bankroll will be $500 today.

I am focusing on a few races today. My big bet will be in the Alabama on #1 Margie's Intention. I expect Irad at a price and will be betting $50Win and $150Place in this small field.

Taking a shot with Horacio De Paz's Palace Boss (#1) in the 8th at that Spa, I'm not a big fan of jockey Luis R. Rivera, Jr. who I consider light years behind the top 20 at the Spa. But I think the inside post will be a big help, and the horse might get a nice trip at a price. Betting $20Win $40Place here.

One of the trainers i've actually made money with is Antonio Sano. I hit a big number early in this meet with a bomb trained by this sharp guy. Today he's got II Sciiliano with Lius Saez up in the 5th at the Spa. I expect Saez will get this horse close and make the one run in the lane. If he makes the lead early and gets soft fractions, he'll be tough.
$20Win $20Place on #5 in the 5th at the Spa.

That's $300 of my stake already "sent in". I'll fool around with the other $200 as we go.

Good luck to all you "plungers" today!!!!! Let's get 'em!!!!!

All the best with your people Dougie, and horses.

What single, he had the 5 in the 4th leg!

Thanks for the well wishes fellas. Still alive at Gulfstream, unfortunately it's a losing ticket even if it wins.. it's just a matter of how much. 4 races and all 4 favorites have won.
Its either a loss of $135, $91,$37,or $18
