Live Handicapping Saturday 4/5/25

[Michelangelo]

Racing is cancelled at Oaklawn and Keenland. Weather.

Two Derby preps today - the Wood Memorial @ Aqueduct; and the Santa Anita Derby @ Santa Anita.

Fast and firm at Gulf and Tampa.

I need to make up $58.00 from a losing day yesterday.

Good luck to all who participate with running records.

What a way to start. I got nosed at the wire by a 20-1 horse I would have used if I went the exacta route. That hurts a lot. $239.00 exacta. Ouch!

-16.00

Wow what a bad beat

He was 4-1 when I bet Joe. I have the exactas marked down but decided to take the nice win price instead. Bad, bad choice.

It's starting to pour at Aqueduct. Track was listed as fast. That won't last if this keeps up.

See that, maybe you can find something in Tomlinson form, Marin has a few mounts there too.

I'll be checking as the track deteriorates for sure, Joe.

The problem with Marin is that they have caught on. He's an underlay virtually every time he rides.

Yea. Terrible. Sure kills your kind of bet, Gravy.

I agree Gravy, trainers are looking at different spots to get the points for the Derby, good luck today.
