    Capo Bastone, Frac Daddy, He's Had Enough, Mylute, Violence, and Will Take Charge are all gone from the first list.

    Interesting that Capo Bastone disappears following a win...

    Ok. So it is this weekend, that's what I thought. But, this weekend has races that will sway the odds.


    I'm gonna try and get small Delhomme and Shakin It Up @ prices. Then, as I've stated before, get maybe another $500 worth of field at a decent price (and it's the same as Pool 1 at a better price, and the only new entry I'm afraid of is SIU, who will be covered by the first bet anyways)

    Oh, and is the filly Pool this weekend DC? Or does that coincide with pool 3?

    Filly pool IS this weekend.


    I have a little extra investment cash too, as I crushed the P5 several times at SA today. Go team 24.

    Still wondering what kind of shot Midnight Lucky has of making the Oaks...

    For sure. Sorry to anyone that offended (although, it probably will help his chances). Excuse my oversight, however, like SIU, he's not individual in the first Pool, so I've got him.

    The Oaks is still determined by $, right?

    BTW, Midnight Lucky closed @ 12-1 tonight.

    I'm gonna laugh this horse into the winner's circle, but he was life and death to win an OC75kN1X and has like 1 point. Either way, if you bet #24 here, you get him, just in case.

    I know you're supposed to wait until Sunday to check odds and late breaking news, but here's my 3 fun to follow bets.

    KY Derby Futures 2 $50.00 WN 2,14,16 $150.00 Pending

    That's Shakin', Malice, and Jake.

    All others hanging tough @ 8/5, but the joke is Super 99 @ 18-1. C'mon. He has 10 points.

    Exacta saver for my 3 horses. I guess they can get beat by as many all others as they want, as long as they don't get beat by a listed horse, because there is no 24/24 exacta.

    KY Derby Futures 2 $5.00 EX 24 / 2,14,16 $15.00 Pending

    Anybody make any "investments?"

    KY Oaks Futures 1 $50.00 WN 11 $50.00 Pending (Midnight Lucky)



    I missed the derby Field @ 3-1. Oh, well.

    Baffert's Oaks 3 pack:


    Two-time Kentucky Oaks winner Bob Baffert trains three fillies the Oaks pool: recent maiden winner Midnight Lucky (#14, 16-1), Las Virgenes runner-up Fiftyshadesofhay (#8, 20-1), and , whose impressive 2-year-old campaign in 2012 included Grade I victories in the Del Mar Debutante and Santa Anita’s Chandelier.

    The N1x horse got all the play?

    I know. I was quite disappointed in MIdnight Lucky's price (especially considering Baffert skipped the Oaks with Mamma Kimbo last year whe she was coming off a win in the Fantasy), so i passed.

    What's equally disappointing is that this pool is the one-and-only chance to bet Oaks futures anywhere in the country. They haven't offered them in Vegas in about 10 years. Pretty sad.

    Betfair is gonna fix this I hope. Exchange wagering presents exciting opportunities, especially when mixed with the ability to parimutually wager.

    I would assume we will have access to much more Euro style gaming, where futures on individual interests are readily available.

    Oh, and yeah, horrible price on Lucky. Honestly, I hit for over $10k last weekend (a lot in cash, which is always nice), so my bet was just for fun.

    Also helps out Team 24 in both pools

    Yeah, Verrazano slightly wounded us, but overall very positive.

    FB, Missed Cyber Secret, but I rarely play Oaklawn. But I loved your 2 GP Plays. Had a Huge Double from that bet down Pletcher to Hyper. Sent you an email about ALL ALEX.

    I've got Verrazano on top of the field. If Verrazano wins and one of the listed horses runs second, i may cry.

    Liking Team 24 right now though. Hear The Ghost looked great (though he was obviously helped by the pace duel up front), and that longshot who ran second behind Verrazano @ Tampa looked pretty good as well.

    I missed the derby Field @ 3-1. Oh, well.

    Clean sweep this weekend for my futures (kinda). Added two spots on Team 24, and came away with small money on the likely Oaks favorite if she makes it soundly. Freak of nature she is.
  • DiscreetCatDiscreetCat Moderator
    edited March 2013
    Yeah, another nice day for Team 24. Looks like Midnight Lucky may indeed make the Oaks, too. I was hoping that Pletcher horse would take a lot more money yesterday, i ended up having to pass the race. Told my subscribers that i would've been happy with just even-money on Midnight Lucky, but we couldn't even get that.

    DC - very interesting that the bettors seem to have a better grasp on the points. With 5 100 point races left, ten spots in a 20 horse gate still have not been decided. The field went favored over Verrazano. Team 24 looks good, Flashback being the biggest threat IMO.
