5/3/19 Churchill Downs Kentucky Oaks Pick Four -

Race 8 - The La Troienne - # 1 She's a Julie (Final Odds 5.00) - "C" Selection
Race 9 - # 3 Cummings (22.30) - "C" Selection
Race 10 - The Turf Sprint - # 6 World of Trouble (0.30*) - "A" Selection
Race 11 - The Kentucky Oaks - # 13 Serengeti Empress (13.00) - "B" Selection

Mistakes were plentiful Friday.  She's a Julie, winner of the Grade 3 Bayakoa last time out, certainly deserved more consideration than that which I gave her.  I remarked in the preview that World of Trouble should probably have been a big ticket single; and the four year old colt proved that there was no probably about it, winning the Turf Sprint easily.  Even Serengeti Empress, whom I correctly placed on the big ticket, must be included as part of the mistake brigade, because of the multiple times in the preview that I referred to her as Serengeti Express (at least that error I was able to correct).

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Kentucky Oaks Pick Four sequence of  1 / 3 / 6 / 13  were rewarded with a payout of $2,141.35 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
