Putting this up early because I'm gonna be busy for the late morning.

It's Florida Derby Day. There's a big 14 race card at Gulfstream which starts at 11:30 AM.

New York has a full card of minor stakes races.

And the weather looks great in Florida so all turf races should go as carded.

We've been struggling lately. Keep your heads up. We'll come out of this horse racing funk.

Please keep a running record of your plays and money.

All welcome.

Good luck today guys. I can't possibly throw down an o-fer two days in a row, right? So going to double down today and possibly risk up to $500. No distractions, locked in my office with PP's, fresh coffee, and extra pens. LFG!

Dubai-Meydan Race 7 (hoping this is okay since its a Gr 1)
$5 WP #5 Felix

GP Race 1
$5 WP #8 City Tavern - some tough looking first timers in here, but I've always been a fan of this jock/trainer combo so landing here.

Thanks, G, best of luck to you, too. Too many opportunities - tough to know where to take a shot. Sensory overload.
