7/1/17 Oak Tree At Pleasanton Late Pick Four - Results

Race 7 - # 7 Not a Kitten (Final Odds 3.30*) - "B" Selection
Race 8 - # 6 Missionelle (2.30) - "A" Selection
Race 9 - The Juan Gonzalez Memorial - # 6 Song From Above (2.00) - "A" Selection
Race 10 - # 3 Tribal Again (10.20) - No Selection

Watching the Post Time Favorite win by as many as she wanted in the opening leg isn't what I was hoping for when I punched the "ALL" button for that contest.  Not singling Song From Above, the only non-Maiden in the Juan Gonzalez Memorial, was in my opinion an unfortunate error that needlessly doubled the cost of the big ticket.  But all that could have been forgiven had "B" Selection # 7 Van Lingle Mungo (15.60) been able to hold off Tribal Again at the wire in the nightcap; but such was not to be.

Oh well; onto the next race.

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

# 4 Valiant Flame (2.80) - $47.35 Finish: 5th
# 7 Van Lingle Mungo (15.60) - $527.05 Finish: 2nd
# 9 Macho Marini (2.60*) - $97.30 Finish: 7th

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Four sequence of  7 / 6 / 6 / 3  were rewarded with a payout of $200.50 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
