Thanks Melman. I don't suppose you have another $59 horse in there, do you?

Ya never know for sure the final odds a few of my top picks have large morning line odds so maybe. :) PA or BillW or CJ please move this thread to the harness section, I was reading Headhawg's insightful comments in off topic sports and forgot to switch over and post this in the harness section. :jump:

Not so good tonight Banacek. Out of the 10 races had 2 first pick winners. In real betting did OK with the $42.50 winner of R5. As a general "guideline" I bet my selections in the win hole on a odds based lineup of 1st pick at 3-1 or more 2nd at 8-1 or more and 3rd at 15-1 or more. Those are not "written in stone" as I will win bet some at 8/5 and above. Just NOT very many of them. :jump:

Yeah, I remember your guidlines from the war room. I had guessed you hit that one. And you also got the winner in the 2nd gate-to-wire. Well anytime you can get Kelso at 5-1 against a bunch of harness horses, I'd take it!:lol:

Good luck in the first few cards.
DRF is reporting that Woodbine's Polytrack is broken.

Wow....this is some pretty damning stuff:


"It's broken," said David Willmot, president and CEO of the Woodbine Entertainment Group, referring to Polytrack in terms echoing those he had used to define Woodbine's former main track last March...

Woodbine management met with Polytrack vendors Martin Collins and Keeneland on Wednesday to discuss what needs to be done to the surface. The current Polytrack has tended to separate and yield excessive kickback during cooler weather...

Wow....this is some pretty damning stuff:
When I was there at Christmas the scuttlebutt was the entire course had to be re-surfaced by the vendor at the vendor's expense.

Poly not a concern for harness racing. Looks like the t-breds will have a problem with it.
