12/29/18 Santa Anita Late Pick Four - Results

Race 7 - # 12 Gleyber (Final Odds 6.30) - "C" Selection
Race 8 - The American Oaks - # 8 Competitionofideas (5.10) - "C" Selection
Race 9 - # 7 Macwinnon (2.90) - "C" Selection
Race 10 - # 11 Madaket Sunset (4.00) - "B" Selection

Of the three "C" Selections that got their picture taken in the final four contests Saturday, the only one I gave serious consideration to including on the big ticket was Macwinnon; though I probably should have given more thought to giving the class dropping Gleyber more prominence in my play.  But Competitionofideas?  Yes, I know she's trained by Chad Brown; but I also know that Competitionofideas had never won even a Listed Stakes prior to Saturday; while the American Oaks field contained multiple Graded Stakes winners.  But no matter, except perhaps as something to recall for another day; for regardless of the result of that leg, Saturday was a day for me to contribute instead of collect.

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Four sequence of  12 / 8 / 7 / 11  were rewarded with a payout of $566.90 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
