8/11/18 Del Mar Late Pick Four - Results

Race 7 - # 4 Pulpit Rider (Final Odds 11.50) - No Selection
Race 8 - # 7 Ninety Nine Proof (2.40*) - "B" Selection
Race 9 - # 3 One Fast Broad (4.10) - "B" Selection
Race 10 - # 10 Hey Sal (2.20) - "B" Selection

First round knockouts are always tough to swallow; even more so when the winner at a nice price was a perfectly reasonable selection.  Pulpit Rider had not only proven herself to be a specialist at the distance, but also had a solid history of winning when running second off the layoff.  The lack of any "A" Selections finding their way into the winner's circle is also rather disheartening; but having the final three victors on the big ticket is encouraging, and offers good prospects for tomorrow.  Or so I hope.

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Four sequence of  4 / 7 / 3 / 10  were rewarded with a payout of $852.60 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
