SOTB lands the I.R.S. P4 with 1/7.

I get the DD with 1/4/7 in various multiples but I sure hope the public was wrong with HALF METAL JACKET. Grade 1 to cheap claimer off a 202-day layup tells me that one is going to the post with fewer than 4 legs.

The Lump BRAVO ROMEO is going to do OK for me so I save some stuff with the Rudy Rod conundrum.

Ex: 4/6-7

The Bridgies avoided the show pool like the plague. That was a good sign.

2,489 #1

680 #2

0 - Scratch #3

3,687 #4

1,979 #5

1,602 #6

4,972 #7

15,413 - Total Pool

Sometimes you can learn a lot from the pools or what Mr. Tote tells you.

I'm OK with that race but in hindsight should have done better.

That horse had "False Fave" blinking all over him in neon.

Nice hit, Suff. Nice to see an IRS ticket on the board every now and then.

In October, 2009 there were I.R.S. tix cashing from all over the place - Belmont, West Coast, and the Mountain.

In the days of caulks on the inner lots of folks here went to the I.R.S. window to grab their shoe money.

The small fields everywhere today are hurting the folks that plunge with spreads.

Race 7 today has 5 runners. Race 8 has four. Who's got a shot to crank a score? Nobody, that's who.
