Woodbine Harness- Mon

[sds]

A few picks here - hadn't much time to do my homework.

RACE3 : McGrin
This race will be wide open - any one of 4 horses are top prospects but this one is 3/4 on the board. A Play across -heavier on place & show SHOULD net some dollars. Anyone's guess on the tote board tonight on this one.

RACE#4: Eileen Donon/How is that Fair
These 2 horses should dominate the race and odds may not be good for wagering...... Condren & Ritchie will be tough. The only horse I see for an upset is "In conchnito."

RACE#5: Old World Elegance
This horse should be the class. That said, Dube has the distinction of enjoying Wdb 10th hole - I hate it as you know! That said, I might look more closely at The Arrow for a nice board bet.
Maybe a 8/10/3 Exactor wheel

RACE#6: Fly Like an Eagle
This horse should give good odds tonight. I think that two other horses should see more action - "Mr Bill Hanover" & "Hookers Ravenge" but Eagle may be able to upset. Dube is on board and this horse is dropping down tonight - good enough for me to take a chance.

RACE#7: Davay to San Jose
Drop down for this beast could make her a live one. Might even get a good price. Look for her to challenge "Hewillbeastar" for top billing.
**Watch for MG Magique as a show/Tri bet here. Should have longer odds but don't overlook her.

RACE#8: Orbit
Although Orbit looks like a favourite here ,I will be tote watching for "True Story" & Grandslam Hall - either could make for an upset play here and with nice odds.

RACE#9: Trot West Bandit
Should be the one to beat here with likely odds to match. Watch for "Image of Dawn" a an upset prospect who is moving up a class and SHOULD have some nice numbers.
Bigger WIn bet on Trot/ Bigger Place & Show bet on Image.

RACE#10: Cam Sox Em
Look for this horse with Christoforou to take top spot.
Right behind him should be "Living Well".
**Upset- Crooked Stick. Should be a good 8-1+ and I may take a serious look at him repeating his lifetime best again this week - in that case he will take this match.

If the night is going well, I may jump on an 8/6/2,9,3 Tri. &/or Exactor wheel.

RACE#11: Alexandras Hat.
Watch for Sportster as a second bet here.

Good luck on what appears to be a tough card tonight!

I hope someone other than myself noticed the juicy odds they gave us on "Old World" and made some money - wonder if my picks go to waste here..........

NBOTE- the "editing" is me trying to master the "highlight" feature with minimal success!! lol

2nd 8 STRANGER 14.90 6.50
3rd 10 STAR BONUS A 6.00
4th 6 FLY LIKE AN EAGLE

As I stated at the outset - Mr Bill was the first horse in my eyes.....and I THOUGHT that I'd need to find someone to beat him in order to get a decent payout - was NOT the case AGAIN!!!!!
These guys at Woodbine tonight are giving us great odds on what I feel are the FAVOURITES - keep this in mind tonight!!!!

HAD to highlight this! What a payoff. All the favoured horses were boxed in unexpectedly and couldn't change gears in the stretch or get "outside" for a move....tough one to watch.

Thanks Kid,

Starting to think nobody here is interested in Woodbine. You took "Malabar" ?? $132 ! lmao
I looked at him THREE times only b/c he races here at my home track sometimes but I stuck to my guns and got shot.

This last race will be interesting as well...
Looking for a 9/4/7 Tri here. Box/'em

2nd 3 WESTERN RESOLVE 24.30 10.90
3rd 4 SPORTSTER 3.20

Thanks Roanoke. Some days I wouldn't trade the harness for ANYTHING else. Tonight was a fairly good example. I had a couple of exactors and one Tri that I pulled out of a hat just before post. But it is those big cross the board bets that make me the money now. (and some Pick 3's

Here is the final race which like 9 & 10, proved to be a bit of a mess for some reason. I think the drivers were drinking all night and it finally caught up to them - never seen so many guys get caught in their "cover"


cheers
