5/10/15 Santa Anita Late Pick Four - Results

Race 6 - # 4 Keegers (Final Odds 10.20) - No Selection
Race 7 - The Lazaro Barrera - # 7 Kentuckian (1.00*) - No Selection
Race 8 - # 3 Famous Alice (5.40) - No Selection
Race 9 - # 3 Cook Inlet (67.90) - No Selection

As we've often said in this space, miss one or miss 'em all, it's all the same to the bottom line.  Well, today we managed to miss 'em all.  Keegers got up in the final strides of the opening leg to defeat our "B" Selection, # 1 Hye I'm Jack (1.90) by a head; and it was all downhill from there.  

We made a deliberate point of playing against the Favorite Kentuckian in the featured race, and he won by over a half dozen lengths.  We had no part of any of the horses that finished in the Superfecta in Race 8; and, despite going eight deep in a ten horse field, we managed to whiff on the winner in the finale.  There are days when this sport can truly humble you, and today was definitely one of those days.

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Pick Four sequence of  4 / 7 / 3 / 3  were rewarded with a payout of $8,485.55 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
