The Fairgrounds:
Kent D. will try to steal this on the engine, I don’t think he can but?
Factor This is a new gelding and is not that far off the favorite TG wise with one number just as fast as the multiple tops Synchrony has run. Captivating Moon doesn’t win enough for me but a late runner at a big price ain’t a bad thing!
Synchrony loves this course, is fastest but Bravo in a 14 horse heat working out a trip at a short price?
1,2,4,9
The Rachel Alexandra:
British Idiom is ALMOST a single.
Swiss Skydiver has a forward move in her and was the victim of a Brutal ride in her last at Tampa.
3,6
The Risen Star: 1st Division
I had a BIG opinion on Silver State in the Lecomte and on of these days he will break clean, not get clobbered and taken wide? I may be a sucker here at short odds BUT one more chance. This one gets the lions share of the ticket.
Savers with Moon Over Miami and Mr Monomoy. I’ll play exacta’s here as well with
Silver on top & small reverses.
* If the Pick is dead into this heat? Doubles with Silver and a pair in the 2nd Division, of the healthy variety 🤫
2/5,9
The Risen Star: 2nd Division
Liam’s Lucky Charm and Anneau d’Or just look better than the rest IMHO.
5,8
Good Luck,
Frank D.
10th - 2 Synchrony, 4 Factor This and 5 Dontblamerocket (pair up)
11th - 3 Swiss Skydiver, 6 British Idiom, 7 Finite (Maybe gets loose)
12th - 1 Digital (Calhoun on fire and a price), 2 Silver State, 3 Ready to Roll (Maybe last was in spite of the Slop) 5 Moon over Miami (bounces back) 8 Enforceable (Bounce?)
13th - 8 Anneau d’Or - (Wrighteous Dudes need to stick together).
Best of luck to everyone.
Frank..

Hanging out in Napa, wife taking a nap. I have time to place a few bets.
PK4 - Fair Grounds - Fair Grounds S.
Leg 1: 2, 4, 5
Leg 2: 3, 6, 7
Leg 3: 1, 2, 5, 8, 9
Leg 4: 5, 8
Nice call on the first leg Mr D
Went a little wider in the 11th using the slow Dallas Stewart filly.
At some point she breaks thru the 10\'s.
Like Frank heaviest on Silver State in the 12th and only using 5,8 in the 13th.
Good luck P-Dub. Maybe you\'ll be having dinner at the French Laundry tonight!

Thx Ace.
She\'s a Cole\'s Chop House fan. Its our usual Sat night Napa spot when we are in town. She orders a Filet 95% of the time wherever we go.
After the Spa treatment this morning and the $300 meal later, hitting this P4 would help.
Good work P-Dub, you moved the chains. I\'ll be rooting for the 5 in the last for you. If you have time for wine tasting/touring while you\'re up there, I recommend Darioush, Pride Mountain, and Larkmead. And if you can swing over to Sonoma County on the way home, Stonestreet has a great bronze statue of Rachel Alexandra outside their tasting room and the wines are darn good.

Don\'t think we\'ll have time, but I\'ve logged all this and will add to my Napa notes. Thx for the tips........
