Hi BDW,
Originally thought Daytona and Medici Code could bounce off their last races but they shed 5 and 6 lbs. respectively. Daytona has good speed on the inside but should be closely attended today by Lang Field. I have to give the nod to Medici Code with a late run. You know I like to go for a price and something makes no sense to me in this race. Sensational Humor stepping way up and Tom Bush (B, remember that trainer when you start looking at NY racing) shipping in.............it makes no sense. So of course I will use him with Medici and Daytona, and Proudinsky to round out the super

TUMB likes Sensational Humor. Tom Bush is a terrific trainer (The Chief taught him well) and he wouldn't ship cross-country without a good reason .

This one's easy. Bobby Frankel has Proudinksy on tilt. Third of the layoff, training like a monster and gets Bejarano right back. He sits off Daytona and rolls by him at the 5/16ths pole. If he looks good in post he gets my money..

TUMB picked an impossible longshot. Don't know why.

Hmmmm....seems like a new system with merit there's THUMB, HUTI, TUTI and now BDW's OTTOMY (Off The Top Of My Head) It gets easier everyday:>) Heck of a triple for the 3 choices in the race:>)

lol, I won? I didn't even watch the race.
My rationale was that Datyona's last race (hollywood derby) was damn fast. Frankel got bet because he's frankel and it's a grade 2. that horse isn't THAT good, his last race was an allowence for crying out loud and he's the M/L fav. Frankel factor

Geez.
A juicy pick three was there for the taking...
Single G. Goose in the 7th. TUMBHUTI approved.
Hit the All button in the 8th.
Single Daytona in the 9th. A bdw OTTOMY
$1 pick three, $303.70
There goes that hindsight in full overdrive.
