1/25/20 Turfway Park Late Pick Four - Results

Race 5 - # 6 All Hands On Deck (Final Odds 2.20*) - "B" Selection
Race 6 - # 10 Sperling (7.70) - "C" Selection
Race 7 - # 1A Speedy Solution (0.60*) - "A" Selection
Race 8 - # 11 My Aunt Tillie (1.90*) - "C" Selection

Last time out, My Aunt Tillie finished sixth at this class level over this track at Saturday's distance, in back of a couple of today's opponents; specifically, over ten lengths behind # 3 New Appeal (7.80) and about five lengths behind # 10 B Deb's Fortune (5.10).  So major props to the wagering public, who, by making her the Post Time Favorite off her 5-1 Morning Line Odds, were able to sniff out that My Aunt Tillie would reverse that result to post her first victory (and only second in-the-money finish) since May 6, 2018 (nine starts ago).

Anyway, it made little difference to my play, as I was already out after the second leg.  While # 11 Screenwriter (14.50) ran well in defeat in the third leg, picking up the Place just a neck behind the winner, singling the entry proved to have been the correct way to go.  Still, even with the extra money to play with that singling would have provided, it's unlikely that I would have put either Sperling or My Aunt Tillie on the main ticket, let alone both.

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Four sequence of  6 / 10 / 1 / 11  were rewarded with a payout of $236.00 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
