Kentucky Oaks

[T Severini]

Early On - A couple days ago knew little about Saffie Joseph. Currently am a fan. 46-1 currently. Gimme back that Filet o Fish...gimme that fish..gimme back that filet o fish..gimme that fish.

Simply Joking - I am the filet o fish, you\'ll have to catch me...I am the filet o fish, you\'ll have to catch me.

Fondly - Scored on the anomaly track. Let\'s evaluate her and it a bit after this fish race.

Drexel Hill - Tandem worker with Filet o Fish

Quick Kick -

Ballerian d Oro - Right there with Fish Chaser

Tenma - Currently 7-1 ... I\'m at a loss when in this field shes not a more clear 2nd choice and looks a use horse.

Take Charge Mi Lady - not sure what the track will be like later but if its as fast as it currently is looks like a tough row to hoe.

Good Cheer - A legitmate favorite looking marvelous. Most likely winner, but don\'t read her fast as overbearing. Will stand to be corrected.

Anna\'s Promise

Bless the Broken

Quietside - quick horse overcame the 12 hole two back but see a wide trip. Good horse

My selection is The Fish
Gimme that fish - The Fish.. as low investment keys
with
Good Cheer and Tenma

TGJB is going to reprimand me for this.

Tenma - flopped first time two turns, but ran a nice figure in the Starlet with the blinkers off. Got down to a \'2\' first out this year before regressing again. The SA Oaks track was pretty deep though, and Tenma ran right into a 22.4 and 46.1 pace. If she breaks well and rates nicely in the two or three path, a return to the \'2\' level is possible.

Good Cheer - very good filly, and a great patten. Should run a \'1\' or \'2\'. Draws outside of the Baffert though, and is a very short price.

Tell me which of the two breaks better, and that\'s the one I like. Tenma is much longer on the board, so she\'s my pick.

It’s fine if you don’t want people to know what the fâ€"k you’re talking about.

And I thought I was the only one……

The old lady asked what is so funny about a horse racing forum. Told her it\'s hard to explain, she said that it can\'t be that funny.

Still Perfect in the Kentucky Oaks... Still have never won it.

I blame the number fatigue for losing consciousness. It\'s a good thing no one understood I was making #2 Simply Joking a \"low investment\" action Key and using #1 Early On as a underneath Big Balloons horse with the two favorites.

The misunderstood horses finished last and next to last.

Hey, I said to myself, \"They\'ll have to catch Simply Joking\".  Sure was right about that one wasn\'t I?  (Yeah, like a fish you have to catch!) So I used the \"come here fishy\" part of the rhyme and applied it to Early on. I\'m just glad no one understood.

Then as I was fainting from the lack of sleep the catchy tune entered my head. Now I really think Simply Joking\'s jock made a terrible mistake not holding position, but at the time the lack of sleep induced the fainting spell I did not know the track would turn to goulash.  

Mea culpa, Mea Culpa, Mea most grievous culpa.  I\'m sorry and will get more sleep for the big day. (It\'s not the side effects of the cocaine)

However, Saturday sure is looking like a lake day.

Lets catch some fish!

[P-Dub]

Agreed about not holding position into the first turn, but not sure it would have mattered.

Picked the wrong horse to beat T Anna.

Ripped up horizontal tickets.

And the Warriors played like my wagering today. Shit.

I got my teeth kicked in today.

Tomorrow a new day

P Dub,

I like it when a bit of humility is shown. It\'s a tough game and we all have days we would like to do over. I didn\'t shine yesterday either, even having Raging Sea correct couldn\'t save me. The nature of horizontal wagering is you must find a place to make your stand, and for me it was the 8 Belles (r9).

When I saw Impulse Buy had moved forward on that strange 11/30/24 track, I was certain she was the one. Mr Prat gives one that confidence. It all hinged on her - finished 8th.

The saying goes, \"There\'s always fresh\". Good luck today.
