Race 8 - # 5 Forest Caraway (Final Odds 11.90) - "C" Selection
Race 9 - The Solana Beach - # 5 Pulpit Rider (11.40) - "C" Selection
Race 10 - # 6 Pyron (0.60*) - "A" Selection
Race 11 - # 6 Mithqaal (8.00) - "B" Selection
Leaving Solana Beach winner Pulpit Rider off the main ticket was an undeniable error. Pulpit Rider was coming off a strong third place finish against open company over this turf course; additionally, Pulpit Rider was going third off the layoff for Trainer Mike Puype, who tends to do well with such. But looking objectively at the first leg of the sequence, I don't see how I can get Forest Caraway onto the main ticket without going at least six deep in that nine horse field. So even if I had played the Solana Beach correctly, Saturday was most likely still going to be 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 5 / 5 / 6 / 6 were rewarded with a payout of $1,668.85 for their fifty cent wager. May God bless them as they spend their winnings.
Peace and Love,
Jimbo
