8/3/19 Del Mar Late Pick Four - Results

Race 7 - # 7 Dunbow Road (Final Odds 3.60) - "B" Selection
Race 8 - The Yellow Ribbon - # 1 Beau Recall (Ire) (2.00) - "B" Selection
Race 9 - # 10 Madame Vestal (16.50) - "B" Selection
Race 10 - # 6 Equal Measure (4.10) - "B" Selection

Sometimes luck isn't just on your side, it's sitting in your lap and holding you tight.  Thanks in no small part to a fortuitously named friend, as well as a finish so close it would be criminal to make someone live off the difference, Saturday was a day for me to collect instead of contribute.

For the record, here are the $0.50 Will Pays for the other six runners to which I would have cashed in the nightcap:

# 2 Busy Paynter (9.20) - $1,360.50 Finish: 10th
# 4 Fashion Island (4.60) - $964.75 Finish: 3rd
# 5 Boldest Vow (17.50) - $2,192.85 Finish: 7th
# 8 Dulverton Darling (2.10*) - $626.75 Finish: 9th
# 11 Sapori Girl - $2,929.65 Finish: 4th
# 12 Coldwater (10.00) - $1,926.10 Finish: 2nd

But that's what might have been.  What actually came to be was a correct Late Pick Four sequence of  7 / 1 / 10 / 6  which paid $875.15 for a fifty cent wager.  That makes for a profit of $793.15 on my initial $82 investment, or approximate odds of 9.67-1.

I hope you all had it with me.  May God bless us as we spend our winnings.

Onto the next race!

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
