Kentucky Derby...and Beyond?

Decided to play the Travers like so:

Exacta box: Good Magic, Tenfold, Catholic Boy
Tris: Good Magic, Catholic Boy / Vino Rosso, Good Magic, Tenfold, Catholic Boy / Vino Rosso, Good Magic, Tenfold, Catholic Boy
Supers: Good Magic / Vino Rosso, Tenfold, Catholic Boy / Vino Rosso, Tenfold, Catholic Boy / Vino Rosso, Tenfold, Catholic Boy

I may add a small W/P/S bet on Catholic boy, depending on his odds closer to post time. I'll be on the golf course most of the day but I'm hoping to be done in time to watch the race. Good luck everyone else betting today and many thanks to @Sharkey as always.

Good luck, T.

It depends what you're looking for, but I suspect you'll get playable odds on Catholic Boy as the race nears. I'd guess that he's going to go off as the longest price of the four horses you're using.
 
Shit, I missed the King's Bishop. Promises Fulfilled did get the job in that race it looks like, although I'm not sure by how much or how impressively.

Where can I get the results, Shark? PF got the job done?

Damn you are good! Did FF come in second? Do you know if I can watch the races anywhere for free?
 
Going from watching all these 5k claimers this past week to a series of million dollar races in a row today at Saratoga just might be too much for my system to handle.
 
Looch sharing his winnings today with some people from the twitterverse if one of his two horses run well in this next race coming up;




And this is the consolation prize for anybody who entered a previous contest? Pretty good.
 
WHAT A FUCKING HORSE! WOW!
He didn't fade at all. I guess Firenze Fire might have been on the 'Ubereem Horse Meat' at his last at bat. Still a good third, but PF is no joke!

Yeah, he's a good horse. And really fast. He was very impressive again there repelling the pace pressure after a really quick 2nd quarter. Then fended off his first off the pace challenger when Engage took him on at the top of the stretch. Then he still has enough left late to win with room to spare. He was miscast as a route horse earlier this year, as the owners had Derby aspirations and they thought it was worth the try. But now the horse is back to do what he really wants to do and that's sprinting, in which he's really good at it.
 
Great race between Abel Tasman and Elate. Decided by a nose after some bumping.
 
Gonna play a pace pattern horse between Saratoga races;

Race 6 at Finger Lakes - #7 Mr Canada 5/1 (28.7% = 5/2 fair odds)(LET, OS)

There's going to be a heavy favourite in this race who is making a suspicious class drop too.

Sorry Donk. I meant to give you the link for the live races as well;

https://www.nyra.com/saratoga/racing/live

Click on "Multi-camera" on the bottom of the video, and then when it pops up on the right, click the bar underneath that video to Saratoga Live.
 
I'd be looking for a price play in the G1 Ballerina if I was betting it. None of the top 3 choices look like sure things to run a good race today, although one of them probably will. But I'd take my chances if I was betting it, but I'm not so it's a moot point.
 
If the #2 Ivy Bell goes up any higher in the Ballerina than her current 6/1 it just might be too tempting to pass on. W/P if I do pull the trigger.
 
The O/U for City of Light in the Forego should be set at 3.5 lengths.
 
No Dozing just told people that he may be set to run a big race.

That was Whitmore I meant. He was the #3 horse who was bucking a kicking just and little bit before the race.
 
Travers;

#9 Good Magic
#10 Tenfold
#11 Catholic Boy
#4 Bravazo
#5 Vino Rosso

- #10 to win for $20
- #9, #10, #11 exacta box for $8
- #9, #10 over #9, #10, #11, #5 over #9, #10, #11, #5 in trifectas for $4 each
- #9 over #10, #4, #11, #5 in supers for $1 each
 
At 17/1 right now Tenfold is getting completely ignored in the betting and there's over $1.5 million in the win pool. Love it.
 
He should stay somewhere in that range too based on the double and pick 3 will pays. Only Trigger Warning and King Zachary are going to go off longer.
