I took the chance on the 3 as it was my top BL/BL horse with estimated odds of 9/5 versus a 15/1 ML. It struck me that this was worth a shot despite my preference towards being no more than four lengths behind turning for home on this oval. Besides, I had the 5 as insurance and honestly thought that was the one that would pay off.

The sixth is a no brainer for me - stay out of it. 7 and 9 and the rest are unknown or unworthy.

Seventh race

Tight fit on BL/Bl with the 6-5-4 in that order.
6 and 4 look to be up front and as they are between 4 and 5/1, I'll play both.

Back to movies - just read that Van Johnson died earlier today at 92.

Joy Page, Anita Page and Betty Page have all passed away this year.

Joy may not be a familiar name, but she was the young woman in CASABLANCA for whom Bogie rigged the roulette table so she would not have to "surrender" to Claude Rains.

My hesitation on the 2 was its best efforts appeared to be poly races, but poly-to-IDT is something I've got to do some research on.

five could come late

closed for 4th or 5th

Just a hunch that early speed gets blunted on traditional poly...there are FOUR varieties of it you know
