Harness Racing Ontario - Mohawk specialty + other B tracks occasionally

Glad I did not play .....no one moves and they bring home longest shot on the board

Was in the hospital all day with the wife, was periodically checking, but  didn't see nothing. Just checked in, and, I guess it was a good thing. 

@becito13

 Is everything ok?

By the way, my huge ticket was 3 horses / ALL (7 horses)/ 2 horses / 4 horses /3 horses = just over $100

It would be alive. I am too busy still with work to dedicate a flush of money....I need at least 2 hours to cap

Would be alive with 7810 ....paying very well

I guess. They were testing the pressure of the right side of my wife's heart.

First play in a while....no time to cap as work has been insane but it appears the worst is behind me now until late January and early Feb.

Small Plays: Pick5

23456 / All (5) / 8 / 12356 / 6

236 / 345 / 8 / 1356 / 2

2346 / 345 / 67 / 135 / 6

Front end wind.....and SW strong so that means first over 2nd over is a good trip so horses dropping down who can close are yummy tonight

4-1 winner in Race 1

WOOOOOO!!!!

They brought home the #6 Speedy Dominic on the equipment change.....I put him in and took all as a result

This makes the PICK5 pay over $600 for sure and likely $1000 if Lets get Pickled wins with a medium fave here the rest of the way and one other fave

#8 Bet On Becky key wins....

Alive

Ohhhh baby....TRACEUR HANOVER @ 13-1.........just have #6 ......this should be paying over $1000 with Traceur being 8-1 morning line

Pays $847 to #6

Excited about the weather tomorrow......sunny and cold

Strong West wind in their face blowing continuously at 17 mph with gusts to 25-28 mph

Definitely a front wind and if many speed horses, put in a closer that can come first over and pick them off down the lane....will be tough to do but possible

Race sizes > 9 / 6 / 10 / 9 / 10 horses....beauty!

Race 1 > 26 did not leave the rail on a higher class so one of them will move to the front with the drop in class

-hunch play (2nd ticket?)> 458 and even #1 .....who moves well when inside.....#4 does not leave but very fit

Race 2 > 1234 .....there is no key in this race.....might do a Pick3 with 56 starting in the first race 

Race 3 > 567 ....love #5 especially

Will cap the rest tomorrow

Just came in from a walk with the dog.....type of air that makes it hard to breathe as cold air up your nose is dry and so imagine the horses. Any horse on LASIX recently has an advantage as that clears the airways which is what it is intended for and higher blood/oxygen levels as a byproduct to increase muscle performance naturally.

Lasix horses have a nice advantage if you can find them on the card.....

Update on weather: Hourly weather at Campbellville > https://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/hourly-weather-forecast/ontario/campbellville

Winds slightly less strong than first reported yesterday...still 12 -18 mph gusts and from the WEST.....will be flurries in the air for some races.....horses who get to top 3-4 positions tend to fair well 

Best aggressive drivers in these conditions > LUC ROY, SYLVAIN, MCNAIR ....TREVOR HENRY and JMAC know what to do but its the first two from Quebec who cut their teethe in these conditions who I tend to favour

Picks I posted last night for first 3 races and update on Changes: > also DRURY is excellent in these conditions too!

Race 1 > 26 did not leave the rail on a higher class so one of them will move to the front with the drop in class

-hunch play (2nd ticket?)> 458 and even #1 .....who moves well when inside.....#4 does not leave but very fit

Leaning to only going with 268 ....and putting in #5 ? if visual inspection is good.....Auciello has a habit of shaving 2-3 seconds at first asking with a new trotter, but visually it has to look good to put the horse (I have never seen one of his horses win in this situation if the horse looks meh in post parade)

Race 2 > 1234 .....there is no key in this race.....might do a Pick3 with 56 starting in the first race 

Leaning to doing an ALL (6 horses)

 Strong lean to #2 and #3 because if you notice, Hey Livvy is best to make one move AFTER other horses settle on the lead.....horse is coming back from a break too so I expect it to be ready to roll after its 3rd race and the fact its a MARE means, the other horses tend to just follow it if it moves on them before the half

Race 3 > 567 ....love #5 especially and expect #7 to go right to the front but #5 to take over at the half.....#6 has to go in if there is a speed battle

REASONABLE LONGSHOT > Luc Roy's first steer on the night on a well bred and former fast  horse in #1 and #2, 8 and 10 merit respect....I just might do a wild 20 cent ticket with some of these longshots included

Race 4 >   #4 for sure....but check out #5 ...1st time LASIX....finished a close 2nd to HALLSGLENMAVIS in a higher claimer!

-also with a shot....#678  > it all comes down to trip if #4 or 5 are pushed hard

Race 5 > 238 .....I do not Cullen's horse MacDavid....not good in the wind

20 cent big ticket:

2568 / 23/ 12567810 / 45678 / 3 = $56

26 / ALL / 567 / 45 / 238 = $43.60

Race 1 Pick3 > 14 / All / 567 = $7.20

              60c > 14 / 23 / 567 = $7.20

I did various versions of above.....instead. Hopefully, I did not cut myself out of a great play

2568 / 23/ 12567810 / 45678 / 3 = $56  <<< have a version of this ticket alive .....#5 WENT OFF AT  14-1 at first asking for AUCIELLO as I said it could....and won in 154'1 .....more than 2 seconds faster !

#4 opens up favourite in the second race......don't have the horse....it will need a race I am thinking

Right away, this is paying $1000 and a real shot and many $1000's

#3 PERFETTO wins....ALIVE!

OK....#6 horse as the fave

Got 5 horses with 1 horse for a nice payout....not super confident with my key in the last race

Got #4 in the next race for a 40 cent play onto my last race key
