R1 - #6 Speading Rumors (4-1) stretches out to a mile in 3rd off layoff combined with switch from apprentice to journeyman. I expect to see plenty of late interest.
R2 - #1 Afikoman (9-2) making first dirt start of career. If he handles the surface he'll have a brisk pace to close into and the speed seems ripe to break down.
R3 - #4 Ova Charged (2-5) single. I see a 4-3 exacta here.
R4 - #4 Topsy (2-1) Graham has a very high ROI when riding for Assman. Work pattern (quick, slow, quick, slow) sets up for a well-meant debut.
R5 - #4 Let's Go Random (6-1) takes a big drop in class after popping and stopping in first route try. 2nd time Lasix and Lanerie stays.
R6 - #8 Gutzy (5-1) has been burning money like my wife at Macy's. I like the outside post and move back to 6f for him today, though.
R7 - #5 Amanwalksintoabar (7-2) route to sprint combined with the big drop down to claiming and gotta love the connections.
R8 - #3 Maga Man (15-1) would have to run the race of his life to win this, but gets the scorching hot jockey, has won his last 3 tries on the lawn (why hasn't that trainer been entering him in more turf races?), and seems to perform well at FG.
R9 - #8 Swot Analysis (7-2) tough to hold that speed at Woodbine, but has had things more his way sprinting in NOLA. I'm expecting a big run today.
R10 - #3 Maintenance Matt (4-1) loves the track, tried hard in last pair under Pedroza - hoping the inner post today puts him in better position to make his run.

Oh yes, absolutely - this was just an exercise to see how I would do under extreme limitations. One of the things I've discovered is many of my selections (which I make early in the morning), seem to get bet down significantly at post time. Shows me I'm seeing the horses that the morning line maker undervalued, but doesn't help the ROI.
I can tell you I'm doing much better than 70% return over the last 3 months in my wagering account. Also, although I bet many of the selections I post here, I usually lay off or bet very light if the track happens to go wet.
