There are graded races all over the place at Belmont Park today. The value for the day does come in race 8. A 25,000 claimer 6 Furlongs on the Turf. I am looking at a speed horse that has run at least it's last 5 races on the dirt while traveling quite a bit. This horse went from Calder to Gulfstream Park and finally to Belmont Park, finishing a dismal 4th out of 5 horses.
But wait there is more, this horse showed good speed and faded down the stretch in her last start, this is often a good sign for future starts.
This horse also runs for a trainer that does very good with horses switching from dirt to Turf today and this horse gets a jockey switch today, to a hot David Cohen and gets a small cutback in distance, from 6.5 Furlongs to 6 Furlongs.
Belmont Race 8
Horse #4 Lila Louann 12-1 Morning Line and in order for this to be a win bet proposition, I want off odds of 10-1 or more.
Look for a wire to wire score from #4 Lila Louann at a nice price. If you like exotics put the 4 on top of the field in your exactas and single her in Pick 3 and the late Pick 4.
The posted play of Dallas over the total was an easy winner yesterday and the game did follow the script as I saw it.
My email plays went 2-4 in Baseball with Florida again losing by 1 run and the Giants getting shutout 3-0, and the Dodgers blowing a big lead late in the game.
When I look over a losing or winning day I want to see that win or lose that I was on the right side. I can say I got everything I wanted out of all 3 games but the final outcome.
Cynics will say you lost you suck! I got the odds I wanted, I got the pitching performance I thought I would and it didnt workout, all things that you have to live with as a handicapper.
Posted NHL Play for today
Boston/Vancouver Over 5
I will have a complete Belmont write up tonight enjoy your racing and sports day.
Awesome Bob, that NBA over last night was never in doubt. Nice to watch a game without sweating the outcome, that was a done deal after a quarter.
ReplyDeleteTough baseball night, but we were right there on some, just couldn't catch a break. I'll give that Belmont race a look, hopefully we can light the tote. As always, great stuff.
