Re: Del Mar 2018

I remember quite a few short-priced horses during Opening Week at Del Mar.

Helps the churn.

i miss Friday's from Hollywood....

I also miss the days when Del Mar had the Cougar Handicap on a Friday and had the Miss Cougar contest to coincide with the race. Running the Cougar Handicap today, and no Miss Cougar contest. {sigh}

Miss Cougar, edgy promotion by Del Mar.

Probably undone by some politically-correct douche.

Here's a field of five from Miss Cougar 2012.

Glad to see Jake, pictured in the middle, did not win.

If the #1 stays 4/1 I'm firing in R1. She's raced against much better after breaking her maiden. She had to chase a fast pace last two, if she's there around the turn big shot.

He's a true 1-1/2 Mile dirt horse and they just don't write that condition anymore. He's a grinder, and those type usually better when they stay busy.
He's also the rare exception of a 7YO horse (not gelded) still running.

25/1 but #1 has a shot in R6. Preferred distance...they'll rate him off the speed.

Re: Del Mar 2018

R6 #10 couldn't win out of the 1 hole last time out same distance but wins out of the 10 today around two turns....assuming they tried last time. Didn't look like it down the stretch.

R2 Del Mar

#5 Coming out of a highly rated claiming race last out.

Gun to my head it's #1

Re: Del Mar 2018

How is the #7 a 5/2 ML when he's coming out of the same race as #1..finished behind the #1 and today has a worse post than #1 around two turns yet public loves the #7? Moreover #1 had a tougher trip last out too.

R6 Del Mar....#2 should be in perfect position around the turn stalking #4 & #7. I know Koriner's outfit loves him tonight.

Re: Del Mar 2018

Gotta say. I’m an idiot.

I hit the pick 5 today if I don’t leave the 3 horse out in the 2nd.

Went 4 deep in the first and come up with a $23 winner.

Single the 4 in the 3rd.


But what do I do in the 2nd?

Go 6 fuckin deep and leave off the 2 and 43. Shipping to the west coast and 7 months off scared me away. I’m an idiot. Would have hit a 9k pick 5

I'll redboard.
I owe 2w2p2s one for posting about the 1st race in another thread. Highly unlikely I look at the race without his post.Bet less than 40 dollars total so far at the meet.
I went 2x2x5 to grab the 1st double and pick 3.
The layoff for the horse in the 2nd was a key positive for me.Didnt bet a pick 5

Amazing stat....dirt favorites winning at a 53 percent clip. Favorites on the turf? 13 percent.

Re: Del Mar 2018

Everyone's favorite handicapper Patrick McQuiggan likes the #5 in the second. I'm sure ComptrBob will empty his Roth account backing this 20/1 back class horse.

Re: Del Mar 2018

Incredibly posts 1 & 2 are 3 for 76 in DMR sprints. And one of the winners was Roadster, the next Justify according to Bobby B.
