Race 6 - # 6 Time to Zoom (Final Odds 9.20) - "A" Selection
Race 7 - # 4 Blood Red Moon (7.20) - via DQ* - "B" Selection
Race 8 - The She's A Tiger - # 5 Miss Stormy D (0.50*) - "A" Selection
Race 9 - # 1 My Sunshine (1.70*) - "A" Selection
* In Race 7, "C" Selection # 5 Awesome Dude (4.40) crossed under the wire first by a nose; but Awesome Dude was disqualified and placed 2nd for bumping "B" Selection # 4 Blood Red Moon (0.50*) at the top of the stretch and, in a unanimous ruling, costing Blood Red Moon a better placing.
There are few ways better to begin a sequence than to get home an "A" Selection that pays twenty dollars to Win. And there's certainly nothing wrong with continuing a sequence by having your "B" Selection get put up over your "C" Selection by DQ after losing the photo by a nose (even though I still would have cashed, as I did get my "A" Selections home in each of the other three legs). So give credit where you will; a little talent, a little luck, a little help from the good Lord above; the bottom line is that Saturday was a day for me to collect instead of contribute.
For the record, here are the $0.50 Will Pays for the other three runners to which I would have cashed in the nightcap:
# 2 One Eyed Robin (5.20) - $728.20 Finish: 4th
# 3 Known (4.90) - $438.00 Finish: 6th
# 6 Desert Dude (2.60) - $327.80 Finish: 3rd
But that's what might have been. What actually came to be was a correct Late Pick Four sequence of 6 / 4 / 5 / 1 which paid $315.25 for a fifty cent wager. That makes for a profit of $271.75 on my initial $43.50 investment; or approximate odds of 6.25-1.
I hope you all had it with me. May God bless us as we spend our winnings.
Onto the next race!
Peace and Love,
Jimbo
