Who needs GA? Cure for gambling is watching Sir Winston win the Belmont.

Good Luck,

The day\'s highlight was watching the on track crowd singing New York New York and the graphic that showed how the size of the track dwarfed a football field.

Too many interviews with: CB, close ups of Casse and wanna be\'s waving at the network cameras.

Great aerials of the Statue of Liberty, World Trade Center 2 and the Manhattan skyline. Then my most likely winner of the day @ Lone Star fell down in the stretch while leading by 10 and probably died. While the following horse ran into to fallen horse and dumped its rider.

I don\'t even want to remember the ride by frenchie on Master Blaster who again finished running much faster than anybody else.

Argh. A GA meeting sounds like a good idea.

Best race was the 8th and Hog Creek Hustle with a little help from the NyRA stewards. I dumped 3 balls in the water I was so mad when he came over. Then they left him up. I don’t even remember what I got on that hole. It don’t even care.

Even more fun was watching Jose Ortiz get Robert Bruce trapped in the lane waiting for a seam only to tip out AFTER brother Irad went by him.

Good Luck,

That was painful. And yeah as to the Master’s ride, it was almost like the game plan was to wait until the exact second that he had to much to make up to late and then get him clear and actually moving?  And he was flying (after it didn’t matter)

Didn’t love Spinoff’s piloting around the far turn and into the stretch, seemed indecisive which lead to losing all momentum as the eventual winner went where he should have already been, seemed to get himself in trouble and was done after that.

Will say that I thought the 1 fought the whole way, solid effort coming out of the Long Branch.  Sure speed was king most of the day but stil ran a pretty good one, best he could do anyway.  Today and MD all about the I unencumbered rail trip...
