3/19/16 Santa Anita Late Pick Four - Results

Race 8 - # 8 Hunt (Ire) (Final Odds 3.50) - "A" Selection
Race 9 - The Santa Margarita - # 2 Tara's Tango (2.60) - "C" Selection
Race 10 - # 7 Tuscany Beauty (5.60) - "A" Selection
Race 11 - # 5 Cardiac (16.10) - "B" Selection

# 7 Taris (0.90*) had the lead in the stretch in The Santa Margarita, but she couldn't hold on 'til the wire, and wound up finishing a length behind Tara's Tango.  Meanwhile, Small Town Cop made a great effort late in the finale, closing to get within a length of Cardiac; but Small Town Cop could get no closer, crossing the wire still a length behind.  Flip either of those results and we cash our tickets instead of having to trash them.

Oh well; onto the next race.

For the record, here are the $0.50 Will Pays for the two runners to which we were alive in the finale:

# 4 Small Town Cop (3.70) - $239.00 Finish: 2nd
# 12 Buymeabond (3.20*) - $262.60 Finish: 4th

But such was not to be.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Pick Four sequence of  8 / 2 / 7 / 5  were rewarded with a payout of $1,736.55 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
