8/17/19 Del Mar Late Pick Four - Results

Race 8 - The Torrey Pines - # 7 Fighting Mad (Final Odds 2.30*) - "B" Selection
Race 9 - The Del Mar Oaks - # 1 Cambier Parc (1.20*) - "B" Selection
Race 10 - The Pacific Classic - # 6 Higher Power (9.60) - "C" Selection
Race 11 - # 14 Super Patriot (9.00) - "C" Selection

If you're going to miss, might as well miss big; which is what I did in Saturday's Pacific Classic, as the three runners which I had covered on my main ticket all manged to finish outside the Superfecta.  But the worse part of Saturday's handicapping was that the two winners that I missed were two that could have been had; as Higher Power had the best breeding for the ten furlong distance in the Pacific Classic field (at least according to the Brisnet PPs); while Super Patriot was going first off the claim for Trainer Richard Baltas, who has been having tremendous success with such of late.

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Four sequence of  7 / 1 / 6 / 14  were rewarded with a payout of $628.65 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
