Ask a question, get an answer, just e-mail at jerryj@cox.net (subject line JJPP-Q).

Santa Anita with a terrific 8 race card.  We have 3 listed Pop Out Key’s on Thursday’s card, but I was close to naming two more… So there appears to be SEVERAL good opportunities at Santa Anita.

Beautiful Belmont Park starts this Friday… racing at it’s finest!

Talking Kentucky Derby:

I have one more Gaming Today’s Articles, this week we completed an in-depth analysis of Magnum Moon, it’s always great when you can follow the analysis thru a series of race, and then make a prediction on the next race.  And as you know, the next stop for MM will be the KD.

The final article will follow on the KD Week…  this final piece will get you involved in the decision process, I think you will like the way we “come home”.

Seminars:

Thursday afternoon at Fiesta Henderson in the RB…  we will tee it up at 1 PM…

Friday evening at Texas Station, in the RB…  starting at 6:00 PM

Always with refreshments and usually some very nice give-a-ways…

Most important, I will be providing detailed SPEED FIGS, so you will have a deeper appreciation of each horses form and capability… with commentary… so when you leave this seminar, you will still have our ideas in hand…

“Race Day Las Vegas” Plays

Thursday

Race #7 at Aqueduct…. our play King Kranz off at EVEN (fair value after many scratches) off alertly but needed some urging to get into the race, then took up the chase without a problem, picked up the leaders at the 3/16th pole and wore them down to win going away… paying $4.10

Race #9 at Aqueduct…Opus Uno, off at 9/1,broke in stride, took up the running from the back of the pack, moved up slowly on the turn to get within striking distance while hugging the rail, then proved to be flat in the stretch… sorta dullish…

Friday at Aqueduct… Victor Lounge off at 5/2, sprinted to the lead, was full of run on the front, came home in full stride, but wasn’t able to hold off the winner, while well clear of the rest… Much the 2nd BEST…HOLDING PLACE.

AT Santa Anita… Dreams of Valor off at 7/1 odds, took up the chase mid-pack, seemed to be moving well and under restraint, offered little his sprint home, finishing mid-pack.

Saturday … at Aqueduct… just a dull run…

Saturday … at Santa Anita…  Colonist off at 5/1, took back and secured running lane along the rail, moved up on the backstretch when the pace backed up some, took hold along rail, moving well, found a seem at the top of the lane and extended his stride to move very well and attack the leader, but could not get by, as the winner had the front to himself… a very salty effort here, getting the place.

Sunday at Aqueduct… Way Early in Race #7 off at 2/1, took up the chase from behind, started to go after the “loose early speed” coming out of the far turn, moved nicely to get into position, but could never achieve the win… getting the PLACE

Sunday at Santa Anita, Hoffenheim in Race #7, off at 13/1, moved alertly while a little wide on the first turn, held position outside horses through the mid-race running, started to attack on the far turn, coming out of the turn with an open lead, holding sway while driving to the wire… Winning in a solid effort, paying $28.40.
