Thanks for posting, I'm curious to see how this plays out. I would think having a 38-1 shot win the Oaks, yoy're going to get some skewed payouts (especially on Derby longshots).

For the record, I'll take Itsmyluckday in the derby!

Good luck, I'll keep an eye out!

Somehow I manage to run as hot as anybody when it comes to luckboxing winners of the triple crown races. I'm a tad better than a female picking based on name and horse beauty however. Let's do this!!!

Yes, they even take Greendot and some of those things. TS is probably your place.

Besides good PPs on previously muddy tracks, what do you look for when capping in the rain?

If Java's War had any post inside 15 I'd be going very heavy on him. Still think he can pick up the pieces. Please don't walk out of the gate.

I agree I was going to be on him but not at the #19 gate. And yes he walks out of the gate. The non-speed in the race might help him not get that far behind.

Would Greatly appreciate any comments from anyone at Churchill today who can see the track. Is it wet on top, hard under, slippery on top, cuppy, any observations that we could use for guesstimating pace factor and form. Anything especially the later races. Getting heavy? Thanksx3

They have an alternative site you can go to. There is a link on the main page. I have placed my bets there already. It works fine.

So, given the soupy track, moving up Revoutionary to win, and Itsmyluckyday higher in exotics p/s, adding Oxbow to exotics, moving Orb down on my tickets. Some 10 and 20 underneath.

5D taking #3 to win 7-1, also taking over 2.02.5 -150.
