I walked into to Oaklawn Park at 7:30 this morning and just got bqck to condo. OP had as many as 20,000 people there today to watch on tv's and bet really big. Say what you will, OP is doing it right!!!
Went thru about 6 races and didn't hit shit. My 3 horse exacta plays were just not hitting home. Race 7 I loaded up on Dame Dorothy based on inside info that she was named after Bobby Flay's mother and that she was at CD to have her picture made. Two (2) dimes on the nose and she wins a thriller and pays $7.20. Race 8 I play FB's pick, #3 TEPIN, $50.00 wps, and frogman goes gate-to-wire and hits with a $20.20/$8.20/$5.80 winner. SWEET!!!!! Race 9 was a disaster as I didn't use Private Zone. Got a stewards gift in race 10 when Jack Milton got elevated from 3rd to 2nd, and paid $4.20 to place. By now I'm getting right and there is over one hour to the BIG ONE. By post time I just said "Fuck it" and put two (2) dimes on Pharoah.
$7.80 winner.
Long day---but a good one!
Hope everyone had a prosperous day!!!
On To Pimlico!

glad I did as it only returned a little over $600 and was an IRS ticket to boot!
I think that info on Dame Dorothy, might of came from this write up below! (LOL)
Well this is my BEST BET of the entire card today. I absolute love this runner as she is back to what she does best and thats a one turn race. She has been primed for this race, since her return from the Left Coast. Shes named after a very famous chefs (Bobby Flays) mother and Im sure they are all in attendance today as well. The main thing that makes this a BIG WAGER is we have the defending BC Filly & Mare Sprint winner in Judy the Beauty!!
DONT LEAVE THE WINDOW - #3 DAME DORTHOY WP
Sorry I didn't give you props on that info.
Dame Dorothy's race was as good as any at CD on Saturday. Javier Castellano is very good at getting a horses head down at the wire!
