wow i didnt know they had a horse racing thread...also picks for the DONN at gulf.

[Jotoole0821]

that is awesome since horse racing is what i know best. im more confident in HR than betting sports. as you can see i have gio ponti as my avatar at arlington.

also the donn handicap is this saturday at gulfstream. now everyone is gonna bet hard on flatout take charge indy and csaba. honestly csaba is the best bet, but im leaning towards the 9 pool play. funky setup with this horse...wins the stephen foster then gets hurt..retired..comes back..bad races at woodbine and arlington..then wins the hawthorne gold cup..finishes what..6 or 7 in the BC classic..runs second in the hals hope behind csaba...im really like the setup since its all speed. pool play

Welcome to the horse race sub.

Welcome, love the idea of another body / mind down here.

Haven't looked at that race yet. But will respond when I do. Thanks for the insight.

Considering all the pace signed on if Flat Out brings even his B Game he should win. However I will prolly be playing the #1 Bourbon Courage who should be the one to get 1st run on the tiring speed then have to hold off Flat Out and maybe Pool Play. Exacta box 1,2.

Good Luck..

Looks to me like there are more off the pace type horses not one that has all speed.

E horses
4-Graydar
5-Ultimate Eagle
10-Citrus Kid


P horses
1-Bourbon Courage
2-Flat Out
3-Fast Falcon
6-Ducduc
9-Pool Play



Have to think E/P horses 7-Csaba and 8-Take Charge Indy get the run of the race.

Looks to me Martin Pedroza will try to steal with with Ultimate Eagle, he will gun to the front and hope for the best. At 6-1 ML, and will probably go off at higher odds like 10-1, I think I will give it a shot.

[BGboothA]

Yeah I think Ultimate Eagle could be of good value here as well.

Possibly a nice trifecta Key there, as I am not sure he will hold the lead but I like him in the money. Same may be said for the 4 GRAYDAR with the same possible scenerio.

[Slimpickens]

The 4 and 5 have a much greater chance to finish last than finish 1st.

BAMMM!!!!
just hit the Trifecta and a WPS Ladder with Graydar!

Had the 4 and 5 to W/P, nice call BG. Had a feeling that one if those two will try to steal it. Ultimate eagle didn't beak well, and dropped out.

[Slimpickens]

Sure one of the speeds ran about a furlong and the other didnt show speed. I will be playing against Graydar at a likely short price next time.

I would wait until he leaves Florida as they were legit fractions, Ultimate Eagle spit the bit halfway through the race.Pletcher's horses just run out of their skin at GP then come back to earth come May.
