Preakness 2002
track muddy for the first and second races
track moved to good for the third and fourth
turf for the fifth called yielding
track FAST for the sixth
turf for the seventh yielding
track fast for the eighth
and time for me to wager .....
rain has stopped and is not supposed to come back today
and,
the rail appears to be slightly tiring, but the lane coming down the stretch from the two to the six looks to be the best
and
speed is holding up very well as in all dirt routes so far today, the winner is *(at worst) on the board in the final turn .....
track times are definitely in the fast area and the track super, before NOON, "I'm promising a fast track for the BIG race at 6:09pm today"....
surely looks as if I need to get him to let me in on the winner, too ...ggggg
here is what I'm doing ...
and here are the odds at 2:02pm today -
Below are the updated odds:
U S S Tinosa -- 12-1
Magic Weisner -- 25-1
Straight Gin -- 25-1
Crimson Hero -- 16-1
Medaglia d'Oro -- 7-2
Harlan's Holiday -- 4-1
Easyfromthegitgo -- 25-1
War Emblem -- 5-2
Table Limit -- 25-1
Booklet -- 6-1
Menacing Dennis -- 35-1
Proud Citizen -- 9-1
Equality -- 30-1
the TWO best horses are WE and MdO
but
I feel the odds are a tad low for me to attempt to make a large profit
unless
I venture into that terrible wagering
(for me)
of the tri ..<gasp>
*(there goes my dinero out the window)
on top

WE, MdO and Easyfromthegitgo
show
WE, MdO, Easyfromthegitgo, and Straight Gin, USSTinosa, Magic Wiesner, and Table Limit
this is a $20 throwawayyourmoneyyoudummyyou
I feel the WE and MdO exacta box will pay in the area of $24-$30 for a $4box, so I'll leave that one alone. |
