A good beginning, a good ending; but in-between - not so good.
We saw our A selections win Races 8, 9, 12, and 13. But in Race 10 all three of our horses finished out of the money; while Race 11 saw our A selection take the Place, as our C picks occupied three of the bottom four positions.
Missing Race 10 was simply poor handicapping, a total brain fart on my part; as the winner, Running Wildcat, was two-for-four lifetime on off tracks going into Friday, with a Wet Tomlinson Rating of 405. There was no excuse for not have Running Wildcat on our ticket. However, I could have gone six deep in Race 11 and none of the six would have been the eventual winner, Trinni Heart. Trinni Heart had five starts at this level before Friday without ever finishing within five lengths of the winner, while his one prior career start on a sloppy track saw him act up in the gate prior to the start, and then being eased towards the end of the race while running more than thirty lengths behind the leader.
Oh well; onto the next race.
For the record, the winning horses in Friday's Rainbow Six at Gulfstream Park were:
RACE 8: # 10 Sweet N Discreet (Final Odds 1.40)
RACE 9: # 14 Wild Perfection (1.60)
RACE 10: # 7 Running Wildcat (6.90)
RACE 11: # 11 Trinni Heart (4.40)
RACE 12: # 11 Charlie in Charge (2.60)
RACE 13: # 1 Sweet Gator Girl (3.10)
Those who played the correct sequence were rewarded with a payout of $4,234.01 for every ten cents wagered. May God bless them as they enjoy their winnings.

Peace and Love,
