That horse got a nice second over trip behind the favorite and came home in 25.3.
A time trial where he never leaves the rail and is allowed to run his quarters in equal time can easily break the race record. As Steady Star and Niatross did. Four times 26 and two fifths is 1 45 and 3 fifths. WIJI could probably pull that off.

Googling I see that this is a near certainty. Because I see now that the time trial world record set by Cambest twenty years ago is 146.1

Somewhat interesting article from 2012 on harness racing's speed barrier.

Hey all,

As the summer season heats up here, going to post some Pick 4 plays across the country.

Saturday, July 18

Belmont

7 - 1,8,9
8- 2,8,10
9- 4,5,8
10- 3,4

.50 is 27.00

Tough sequence but I think there is a chance both Freud sired favorites in the 9th and 10th fall. Kept the 9 out in the finale. Obviously he can win this but with JCC up, he's likely to go favored over horses that are right there with him.

Delaware

7- 2,8
8- 3,5,6,7
9- 4,5,7,12
10- 5,6

.50 is 32.00

I don't think Mott thinks Syntax is a G3 runner and so I will leave him out in the Kent. I am spreading in the 8th because there are serious questions with Fast Anna. I'll use him defensively but a grade 1 caliber dirt sprinter coming off the bench in a midweek 60k grass race in June at GP is a troubling sign. The works are good though so mixed signals but would not be shocked if he loses. I hate that there is a 17.5 claimed in the middle here. In the feature, I think the trip sets up perfectly for Sheer Drama with no gate speed but will use Rosalind as she may be the best horse in here and we know she can maneuver 10f.

Gulfstream

8- 1,2,4,7
9- 1,6,10
10- 2
11- 4,5,10,12

.50 is 24.00

I think Trev is a decent single in the 10th. He's just faster than these with the only danger being the rail horse that has looked a step slower since his 4/4 triumph.

Monmouth

9- 4,5,8
10 - 1,4,8
11- 1,3,6
12- 3,5,7

.50 is 40.50

I am hoping the entry stays together in the 9th and takes money. I'm not a fan of Kopaj's style of claiming horses and running them back quickly with no works. That magic doesn't work for everyone. Probably should have left the 8 off the ticket in the 10th since it looks like he's having some issues lately but couldn't do it thus the pricy ticket. In the feature, I have long been a big Nonna's boy believer and would not be shocked if she likes turf if she freaks here. The 12th is obviously an ugly race but I'm hoping to catch the 7 with a jockey upgrade, stretchout and first time G.

Will finalize in the morning after scratches and perhaps take a look at Del Mar. Good luck to everyone.

He knows where the HRT is and be great to hear from him.

I wrote this crap down prickly it struck me so flat out fos. "We dont want to negatively impact the purse pool" Josh Rubinstein.......I mean where to f'ing start.

The first couple of days the guaranteed late PK4 has went beyond the guarantee by 2 fold. I saw it was a chance of rain of Wednesday looking at the weather and PP's for the upcoming week so if a moron like me can figure it out before hand no way they could not.

With that quote it is just flat out insulting. Every damn horse player knows why you did it but you chose to lie and i can not think of anyone who thinks your word should count for a damn thing anymore.

Listen Josh if you were to say listen horse players we are not sure we can meet the guarantee today and we can not afford the loss or take the risk of the loss so we are not having it today for that reason. Then of course we will bytch and be pist off but we will at least say they were straight up with me or more to the damn point respected me to tell me the truth. You lied man.

Stopped at the right time today after seeing that by pdiggz and saw it going bad on the track which did not look like it held very well today imo. Work in progress there no doubt.

This is why i got rid of television over 5 years ago. No way in hell am i going to be told what is important to me and what i am suppose to think about. Picked last at recess crowd has run a fool.

Taking the day off Del Mar and have not decided if it is the meet but no way i take other horse players money through way of Del Mar today after that crap yesterday. Looking at Belmont to see what spots may produce some value.

Any thoughts for Saturday's card at saratoga? I'll be there punting money away. I like tepin in the Diana stakes however no real results at 9 furlongs has me hesitant. Thinking about singling him in pick 4 play but not sure yet as I haven't capped the race.

Hey all, for any of you thinking of heading to Monmouth Park to see American Pharaoh next weekend, I am selling one full row of seats in one of the best sections of the grandstand. I'm not a ticket broker, I'm a poker player who lives near Monmouth. I've been going to the races there for 15 years and have 4 rows of seats in the grandstand every year for the Haskell right near the finish line. I have never sold any seats before. I host a huge group of friends, but given the market this year, I decided to sell off one row.

There are 15 seats in the row, I just put them up on eBay today, but a buddy told me that I should offer them to my fellow degenerates on here. They are available as single seats or up to the full 15 (unless any have been purchased on eBay before you contact me). Asking more than face but significantly below market. If anyone is interested in great seats, feel free to PM me for details.
