These maiden races are A sheet player\'s nightmare..At least they put the stakes together for a nice p4 sequence later..

First half of the day, i\'ll be doing something besides betting Sar..I don\'t remember it being this bad on Travers day..

Lost,

I like the card.

The all stakes pk4 is as good as it gets when it comes to handicapping and betting. It\'s huge that he strung all 4 together. Then he writes a very good 1 3/16 open turf race in the 8 slot, giving us 4 great doubles, 3 great pk3s, and a great pk4. Don\'t mind the two 1 1/16 open turf maidens. This is where we often see the stars of the game make their debuts. A pretty good open 7f allowance as well. That NY bred maiden is the only real stinker, but I don\'t blame NYRA for trying to make a few extra shekels with so many other betting opportunities. The 13th is a tough one, but NYRA needs some shot at the carryover cash.

Hey MD,
Defnitely like the latter half of the card..I\'m a p3 and p4 player so those maiden races in a row early causes a \"hoping\" bet situation, as in hoping you picked the right ones..  Nothing worse than having a nice p3 or p4 ticket going and then a maiden race opens and the first timer is 3/5 and you don\'t have it on your ticket and of course it romps...

As always..Good luck tomorrow..  Alpha and Contested look tough due to the pace setup but there are chances to beat them I think..
