Chase a few of the Big Girls down toward the South West end of the lake and tell them to meet me on Tuesday around dawn.

Go get em!

I'll tag em with GPS tags so you can track em.

Wish I was going for a week, but for me it is 6 minutes until the first Breeders Cup race at Oak Tree. Mastery over Father Time in a COLD EXACTA, won't pay much but as long as Mastery wins, I am alive in all my Pick 3's and Pick 6 bets.

Torn between a Filie...... How can you bet against Zenyatta?

[elnutsmalljaws]

Zenyatta will not win the Classic. Not been facing much out west, speed figures are not that impressive and first time trying these boys will end her streak at 13. Love the fact that she is in the race and she opened up as the even money favorite while my horses are extreme overlays. Richard's Kid, Rip Van Winkel, Gio Ponti and Einstein for me in an order to be determined tonight and tomorrow morning. Looks like I should get better prices than I thought on all of them because Zenyatta is taking a HUGE amount of money. I love that there are so many people betting her. She is the second best filly running today, can't beat Rachal Alexandra, but no where near these boys. Just one gamblers opinion but I will stand against her tomorrow.

Good call Elnut. Zenyata won't win. Love Einstein, but may be asking too much this time. I think we will see a good price on a winner. Maybe Gio Ponti or Colonel John

I think if Rip's feet are not an issue he will win the race in a romp but is having foot trouble. I like your Gio Ponti call but threw out Colonel John even though he beat Richard's Kid in last outting. Richard lost ground on the far turn in last, easily lost a couple of lengths plus momentum, before getting going again and just missed losing to Colonel. Depends on what my bankroll will be by that time as to how I bet it. I do LOVE a 15-1 shot in an earlier race and if he comes in, then will have a LOT of money to throw around. I think Goldikova, Mastercraftsman and Conuit are pretty good locks to win their races but all will be favored. I do like a longshot in the Goldikova race for a cold exacxta and think my longshot will make her work for the victory. I have both of them in the pick 4, so if my 15-1 shot wins and my horse upsets Goldikova then katie bar the door.

That was a "cold exacta"...stone cold!!!
