5/26/18 Santa Anita Late Pick Four - Results

Race 6 - The Charlie Whittingham - # 6 Itsinthepost (Fr) (Final Odds 0.90*) - "A" Selection
Race 7 - # 2 Fashionably Fast (3.50) - "B" Selection
Race 8 - The Gamely - # 4 Sophie P (GB) (14.00) - "C" Selection
Race 9 - # 7 It's a New Year (1.30*) - "B" Selection

Looking for chaos in the incorrect leg of the sequence was what doomed my Late Pick Four play Saturday; as the nightcap (in which I had gone "ALL") proved to be the opposite of competitive, with the Post Time Favorite winning by a comfortable margin; while the third leg, the Grade 1 Gamely, produced the upset winner.  Of course, while the above was a tragic error, it need not have been a fatal error; for had Place finisher and "B" Selection # 1 Madam Dancealot (Ire) gotten to the wire just a bit sooner in the Gamely, I would have collected instead of contributed Saturday.  How close did I come to collecting?  That close.

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Four sequence of  6 / 2 / 4 / 7  were rewarded with a payout of $357.10 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
