Retama race 5, playing #5.

[midnight]

Never a threat.

[midnight]

Hooiser, race 7, playing #5 and going against the heavy favorite (#2).

[midnight]

The favorite won easily, and my horse was never in it.

Penn, race 7, playing #7.

[midnight]

#7 stalked to the far turn, moved when asked, and won as she pleased.

Woodbine, race 9, playing #10.

[midnight]

Didn't get the clear early lead figured on and faded in the stretch.

[midnight]

Penn National race 9, playing #4.

[midnight]

Retama, race 8, taking a flyer on #4 (at 25-1) and a 7-4 exacta.

[midnight]

At Retama, #4 laid a few lengths off the pace, moved nicely entering the stretch and just missed (and looked like it won) at 40-1. (#7 stalked a while, but fell back in the stretch). The photo looks like #4 won, but oh well.

At Penn, #4 led and just held on.

Hoosier, race 11, playing #5 to win.

[midnight]

Never a factor.

[Tom Barrister]

That's quite a daily double. A 12-1 shot that wins and a 40-1 shot that almost wins, going off at the same time and put in the same post. Impressive.
