My Del Mar Pick 6 again......

**Poppa Catfish** · 09-03-11, 11:14 PM

didn't look at the card at all, or I would have chimed in.

I'm starting to think the way to take these pick 6s is to include every Warren horsed name, they have this uncanny knack of winning at a huge price.

Good luck tomorrow

Yeah, I have to keep an eye on those 'WARREN" horses even when they are trained Jack van Berg.

GL to you too.

OK, so I got one out of six yesterday, let see if I can two or three for Sunday's pick 6.

My pick 6 ticket for 9/4 Del Mar.

Race 5: 5, 6
Race 6: 5, 7, 9
Race 7: 3, 4
Race 8: 1, 4, 7
Race 9: 5, 7, 11
Race 10: 5, 9, 13

This is what I have so far, will update tomorrow to keep the ticket price down. As usual, any suggestions and insights are welcome.

GL everyone.

with how Mitchell is doing off the claim, and how Talamo is riding, I would be mighty hesitant to keep the #4 off my ticket in race 5. The 5 on the other hand just raced August 28th, don't know how much left in the tank he will have for this.

he was not claimed it was previously trained by, he certainly outclasses this field. I like the 9 a little

splitting hairs here, as Mitchell took over control of the horse for this meet. He picked the spot to place him and put Talamo on board. That has been $ all meet long.

**Poppa Catfish** · 09-04-11, 08:39 AM

oh and for the record 9 is on my pick 5 ticket

**mrginandtonic** · 09-04-11, 12:24 PM

thanks poppa and tony, gonna revise my picks for today. Looks like a very tough day today, may be there will be just one winning ticket (like yesterday) or carryover for Labor day.

Gonna just take a stab as it today:

4, 5, 9 / 9 / 9 / 1, 7 / 6, 11 / 5, 14 for $48.

GL everyone.

**mrginandtonic** · 09-05-11, 05:31 PM

September 5 3:24 PM Del Mar Thoroughbred Club 5 2.00 P6 (PWHL) 8 / 8 / 5, 8 / 1, 11 / 10, 11 / 2, 10, 11 $48.00

Well, I guess I really suck at this, 2 of my picks won, 2 came second, 1 came third, and 1 who know......
Just one more day at Del Mar, I'll be back to take a last shot.

Cool, looking forward to it.

**Poppa Catfish** · 09-07-11, 01:40 PM

7th race is a doozy, there is just no pace. I think the three best horses will all be compromised by the pace

**Poppa Catfish** · 09-07-11, 03:12 PM

Here is my rough draft for the pick 5, any suggestions for improvement are welcomed.

2,3,4/3/1,2,4,5/3,8/7,9 = $24

**Poppa Catfish** · 09-07-11, 03:25 PM

Pick 6 rough draft:

4,7,9/3,4,5/2,3/8/5/1,5 =$72

**Poppa Catfish** · 09-07-11, 05:42 PM

Ouch! if I had kept the 5 in I would have been alive to 7 for 3,000 and 9 for 2,400.

I need a little bit of confidence in my selections.

**Poppa Catfish** · 09-07-11, 06:03 PM

Damn it all

Welp I'll get the pick 5 next time

**mrginandtonic** · 09-08-11, 12:41 AM

Didn't have internet earlier, sorry couldn't comment on anything. My picks were posted on the contest page, and my alternate picks hit 4 out of 6, unbelievable.

5). 7/ 9 (9 won)
6). 6/ 9
7). 5/ 6 (6 won)
8). 4/ 8
9). 9/ 7 (7 won)
10). 8/ 7 (7 won)

Overall, I did ok today. I really should have hit the pick 6 today.

One of my friends gave me the 3 in race 6 and I totally forgot about it when I purchased my ticket

. And I threw out the 6 in race 8 in the pick 6 but had it in the late pick 4. I was so close yet so far. Gonna keep trying till I hit it ( I guess).

GL to you and thanks for posting your picks, wish I had internet today at the track.
