Race 6 - # 5 Big Cazanova (Arg) (Final Odds 5.60) - "A" Selection
Race 7 - The Charles Whittingham - # 6 Fire With Fire (7.30) - No Selection
Race 8 - # 1 Warren's Assassin (56.40) - No Selection
Race 9 - # 11 Durango Flier (3.60) - "A" Selection
The sequence began and ended with the best possible results for us, as both the first and last leg were won by the higher priced of our two "A" selections. Unfortunately the middle two races of the sequence featured the worst possible results for us, as we had no part of either of those two winners.
As we had hoped, the Charles Whittingham was won by a horse coming from the back of the pack to defeat the front running # 7 Segway (3.30). Unfortunately that horse was Fire With Fire, whom I had figured to be among the early pacesetters; but he was wisely ridden by Jockey Tyler Baze, who held Fire With Fire back in sixth for the first three quarters and fifth at the one mile marker before letting him loose to charge home a neck in front of Segway and a half length in front of our single "A" selection in the event, # 2 Quick Casablanca (Chi) (1.70*). Of course all that became moot when Warren's Assassin took Race 8, lighting up the tote board like a Christmas tree.
Oh well; onto the next race.
Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Four sequence of 5 / 6 / 1 / 11 were rewarded with a $7,538.75 payout for their fifty cent wager. May God bless them as they spend their winnings.
Peace and Love,
Jimbo
