Looking at the late Pick 3, but my picks are all going to be chalk, so not playing that much.

Race 7: Smart and Fancy. Won last out at Delaware, and looks tough to beat here.

Race 8: Chief's Lake. Connections are going for $250,000 bonus if this guy wins his 3rd straight today. Incredibly, I've bet him all 8 times he's run. 5 wins, 1 second, 1 third and one off the board. First time going 1 1/8 but horse always runs hard.

Race 9: One in a Romp. Jerkens having a slow meet (1-for-16) and this guy goes back to the turf. Not much speed in the race and he's a closer, so price will have to right.

Race 7 results

5 Jazzy (ARG) 16.40 8.30 5.00
8 Stormy Kiss (ARG) 9.40 4.60
6 Smart and Fancy 2.70


I threw Jazzy in my exacta box with Smart and Fancy and the chalk looks like a winner in deep stretch only to get nipped on the wire for the win and place, and I miss the exacta.

Did include Jazzy in my Pick 3 with Chief's Lake and One in a Romp, so hoping to at least get to the 9th with a shot if Chief's Lake wins the 8th.

Race 8 results

3 Stunt Man 9.40 4.30 2.50
2 Dr. V's Magic 4.80 3.20
5 Chief's Lake 2.10

Crash and burned with another chalk, although I had to play Chief's Lake. Didn't like the 3, who had been running second and third too often. Of course, he airs today.

Did you get the three with race 8? Nice! I would have played Chief's Lake also but i missed the post time.

Chief's Lake was a question going that distance, but I had to play him since he's won some races at decent prices for me. But even money was a bad bet, but sometimes you gotta stick with the horses who have won for you before.

Yeah that's how I felt with Lava Man last weekend. Too bad he didnt even show...looks like he gave up towards the end.
