rdalert447 Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 NYRA has me by the balls. Seeing what trends develop during the Belmont meet helps me formulate opinions going into Saratoga. So, against my better judgement, I'll be playing long shots sparingly at this $hit meet . Please chime in with any info or picks. Good looking card today. 1330 start time sucks. Race 2$20 win #2 Problem Solving 12-1Baker had an 8-1 winner the other day, and he's a guy who wins them in bunches when his barn is right, in all different scenarios. Will try and catch him on a run. Race 3$20 win #4 Champagne Event 30-1I think the value with Ryerson lies with his lesser known owners. The Generazio owned entrants usually get bet(see race 7 today). This one's never been on turf, so sky's the limit on odds. Only win came with Lopez up, a former Monmouth go to guy for the trainer. Race 9$20 win #3 Sugar Curl 12-1Cannizzo was dominant here last summer, but it was hard to get a price. So far, early in the meet, he's had a horse run second at 22-1 and a great third at 12-1. He stands winless so far, so jumping aboard before the public wises up. Anyone playing today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdalert447 Posted May 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 I bet these today: Race 4$20 Win #8 Nakamura 15-1$2 exbx 1-8I’ve seen this act before. Longer half of Motion entry, going long on turf, with a Maryland based jockey named for price enhancement. Boxed it with the shorter Motion. Race 7$20 Win #4 Light the Vow 8-1Sticking with Baker, who’s horse ran good yesterday. This one was competitive with Allow level horses just three weeks ago. Race 8$20 Win #1 Black Tide 6-1Not exactly a long shot but based on Cannizzo’s meet last year and his horse’s under the radar performance thus far, I want to stay on him. Anyone have anything?

rdalert447 Posted May 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 Played another three bagger. Hoping to break my maiden. Race 2$20 win #10 Causeur 10-1Motion had two horses run really well yesterday. A winner at 7/2 and a fourth at 29-1. McCarthy was on that long one and gave a really good ride, so will stick with this combo hoping they came loaded. Maybe first time gelded will get this horse over the hump. Race 7$20 win #9 Inheritthewind 6-1Rice has a rep as a turf sprint specialist, but the value lies with her turf routers. I try to play her in that mode whenever a decent price appears, while the rest of the public bury her sprinters based on a one meet anamoly years ago. Race 11$20 win #8 Bigger Picture 12-1Maker dominates these turf Marathons here. The time to get on board is with his lesser known ownership groups, as the Ramsey owned entrants tend to get buried on the tote. Anyone playing?

rdalert447 Posted May 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 Race 5$20 Win #1 Frosty Gal 10-1No way will we get 10-1 after scratches, but Tagg showing signs of life, and you always get some value on his dirt runners in NY. Race 8$20 Win #5 Rectify 8-1$2 DD 2,5/7After a monster break out meet here last year, Nevin off to a smoking start again. She’s hard to get a price on, although she snuck a 30-1 across last year. Race 9$20 Win #7 Street Cat Sam 15-1After watching this one’s last race, I was hoping Ferraro would wheel it right back. Speed effort followed by a quick return is the trainer’s go to move. If you have the inclination, watch the replay of its last outing. Speed four wide all the way around, still trying hard to the line after giving way in the stretch. I’m a fan of the lesser known Lezcano. Ultra agressive rider unafraid to use the whip, Chop Chop Chavez style. Good luck, men! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeinkeToWarrick Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 I keep playing pick 3’s and going 2/3 with Irad finding new ways to fuck me every time (either losing when I include him or winning when I cut him) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdalert447 Posted May 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Played two today, so far.... Race 6$20 Win #8 Beyond Honor 10-1Ryerson for one of his lesser known owners. Like the early speed horse has shown in the past. Race 8$20 Win #8 Blugrascat’s Smile 15-1I’ll keep betting Baker until the wheels fall off. He’s on fire. Luzzi is terrible but already has a W for Baker this meet. Might be back later. Toner horses in the feature look good, and Ill have to make a decision between Baker horses in the finale.

rdalert447 Posted May 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Who do you like this weekend, Redder?In the Preakness, I bet the 3 Sporting Chance to win, and also boxed with the 8 in exacta. Then played a .50c tri 3,8/ALL/3,8. Good luck today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdalert447 Posted May 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 Playing four today. Need to break through with a longish one.... Race 4$20 Win #7 Playinwiththeboys 8-1$2 exbx 1-7$2 DD 1,7/6Baker has two fantastic NY BREDS going in this race, and arguments can be made for both. Landed on this one as I think the 5 and a half month layoff is a little too long for the #1 to go wire to wire against this tough field. Looks like a speed/fade setup for next out with that one, which will allow the #7 to stalk and pounce. Horse hasn’t run a bad race in two years with two different trainers at three different tracks. Impressive. Race 5$20 Win #6 Courageous Change 10-1My favorite angle. Ferraro, quick wheelback, off a speed/fade type effort, Race 7$20 Win #1 Presence of Mind 30-1Playing both Weaver horses today. His NY string is usually prepping for Saratoga this time of year, but he’s winning at Gulf and Monmouth, so me thinks he might have one trick up his sleeve in NY. Race 8$20 Win #11 Mo Maverick 15-1See race 7. Don’t know if we get a win from these two, but both look poised for big efforts. Anyone playing today??
