4/27/19 Golden Gate Fields Late Pick Four - Results

Race 10 - The San Francisco Mile - # 2 Blitzkrieg (Final Odds 3.00) - "C" Selection
Race 11 - # 3 Rush (1.20*) - "A" Selection
Race 12 - The Camilla Urso - # 3 S Y Sky (0.70*) - "B" Selection
Race 13 - # 3 Tooley Tunes (4.30) - "B" Selection

I'll be honest; I really didn't give much thought to Blitzkrieg in the opening leg of the sequence.  But the four year old gelding, who was claimed for $25k (out of an N2L contest) by Trainer Doug O'Neill this past January, proved his three race winning streak entering Saturday's Graded Stake was no fluke; as Blitzkrieg won by daylight, crossing under the wire more than a length in front of Place finisher # 10 River Boyne (Ire) (1.60*).  And that was the difference Saturday between me cashing and contributing, as the other three winners in the sequence were all to be found on my main ticket.

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Four sequence of  2 / 3 / 3 / 3  were rewarded with a payout of $89.30 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
