Mountaineer Friday 5/15

[CBedo]

First couple races are pretty ugly.
Race 1 seems to be the :6:s race to lose, but he ain't pretty! In this type of chaotic mess, I'd look for some type of change for someone to jump up; I just can't figure out who it will be!

Race 2 isn't much better. :3::5: for me. Looking at the double pools, there doesn't seem to be much value to me with the 5, so I'll make a small 6-3 double and wait for better spots.

Hindsight gets the first race, hehe.
Race 2 winner for 16.60 was nice in such an uncertain first couple of races

For the next pick 3, I don't have much real insight (a trend so far), but I'll go
:3::6::1:
:6::4::5:
:2::6::8:

Tough to use my top picks as key horses when they are all chalky.

[CBedo]

2 legs down, 1 key winner (7.60). We'll see what happens.

Here's my two minute handicapping of the late pick 3:
:4::5::3:
:3::2::1:
:7::1::4::5:

Well as usual, when you don't see any value, you can be surprised!
1/6/8 (one key horse so $27 dollar ticket whether you play every combination or the key horse method)

Return 207.20 --not spectacular, but not bad either!:ThmbUp:

Wrong stretchout horse in the first leg! :2: wins. :5: ran well at 9/1 for 2nd.

Dipping my toe back in the Mnr water. Seems like things are cycling back the way I'd hoped. I won't play it this weekend (girlfriend stuff), but am looking forward to Monday & Tuesday.

Race 9, I must be totally in the dark, because I love the :6:, but the public is luke warm on him.

For once, I was smarter than the public (or luckier?)! Whatever it was, it was a good time for my first $100 win bet at Mnr :jump:
7.60 Easy Winner

Small double 22.60 for 9. Tried to overthink the last race to try to beat the 6. All three of picks were easily 1 2 3, but of course the worst paying one wins, hehe.
