The deuce and three land the DD for me but I promised myself early today that I would pooch the WILDCAT double for a flyer cold.

And so I will - DD: 5/2

SAVVY SUPREME will have to take them from pillar to post to score the upset here.

Excellent rendition of God Bless America by the buglers. They say the chalk is a truly talented filly and just lays over her opponents today. Well, if I have to take aught to five I'd like to hook her up with a decent price to ease the taste of taking such a shorty.

2 over 4,5

Larry always makes a point to cite NYRA for offering such short fields but I wonder y the horsemen, knowing that these races are on the schedule don't point their horses towards these races. 300K for a grade I and only 6 answer the call?

People are picking up on Pletcher's SAVVY SUPREME who showed nice foot last out on off-going. She's 9/2 with 11MTP but it'll be interesting to see where she lands with Mr. Tote at off time.

I'm not going to let this unanswerable question screw up my day. There's a 70-year-old woman here today with a huge rack and not too many varicose veins.
