4/29/18 Santa Anita Late Pick Four - Results

Race 6 - # 4 Tell Me More (Final Odds 1.10*) - "B" Selection
Race 7 - # 11 King Cause (23.60) - "C" Selection
Race 8 - The San Simeon - # 4 Belvoir Bay (GB) (2.80) - "A" Selection
Race 9 - #  3 Eagle Screams (3.10*) - "B" Selection

Long story short: I put the wrong Doug O'Neill runner on the main ticket in the second leg.  First time starter and "B" Selection # 5 Aurora d'Oro (2.60) faded early and finished ninth; while King Cause crossed under the wire first, three quarters of a length in front of the "other" Baffert, # 12 Victory Element (15.30).  Incidentally, the O'Neill / Baffert Exacta paid $285.70 for a buck; a very nice price for a result with those two trainers on top.

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Four sequence of  4 / 11 / 4 / 3  were rewarded with a payout of $416.95 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
