Hello All!For Thursday July 25, here is the lineup for Slew's Fast Horses:
Arlington - 5,6
Del Mar - 3,4,6,7,8
Saratoga - 1,6,7,8,9,10
We have a returning Key Horse running as well:
Divine Luck - SAR ( 6) GP 12/01/12 # 1
Now I considered not posting this Key Horse today because she has not panned out at all. She has run in 3 allowance races after breaking her maiden with the comments being that she was empty in the lane. So why then is she here?
One would think that Shug might shorten her up just a bit. But Nooooooo....he adds distance for this Allowance Optional Claiming affair on the turf as this one is 1 3/16th miles. He also changes riders to Javiar Castellano who has quietly ranked himself a close 2nd in earnings this year behind Mr. All Planet Joel Rosario, who, in case you were napping, won some very big races.
Shug has worked her slow and is most likely looking for a slower pace and a different kind of ride this time, so we'll defer to Shug and post her again. She is tagged with a 5-1 ML.
I have not seen the PP's and I'm not going to look. You decide.
As you probably know, Sunday was a huge day for Slew watchers with Key Horse Let It Rock paying $37 at Gulfstream Park.
At Monmouth, Themanmythnlegend paid $50 and In the Building paid $22. And as they were back to back, the double paid $397.
I noted the other day on a different forum and will note here as well that a huge congratulations goes out to a long time Slew watcher who hit everything there was to hit on these three horses and came home with about 10K in winnings. Yes, that is ten thousand. Dollars.
A great example of taking a leap of faith on long prices, as well as performing some sharp handicapping around them. And it really did not take a large investment at all. I believe the largest bet percentage wise, was a $5 cold tri with Let It Rock on top and the correct two horses underneath. That by itself was worth $3500. Nice! Add to that pick 3's, exactas, doubles and 1 super and...BINGO!
And until I got the email...I was under the impression that I had a good day!
Go figure.
Enjoy the Thursday racing...good luck and good 'capping
