Monticello: Tuesday, August 28

[Teach]

Remembering Grossinger’s, The Concord, The Laurels (where you lose your morals), The Nevele, as in Nevele Honeymoon, Kutschers, The Raleigh, and a host of Borscht Belt hotels. It’s Tuesday Afternoon Live! in Sullivan County with guest appearances by: Tim “The Bionic Man,“ Tetrick, Jeff Gregory, The Standardbreder from ‘The Spa’,” “The Cushnoc Kid,” Jason Bartlett, “Le Quebecois,” Monsieur Stephane Bouchard, Jim Morrill, Jr., Jim Marohn, Jr., Billy “Zeke” Parker and announcer Howard Oil (the last time I saw Howard was in the announcer’s booth at Massachusetts’ Foxboro Raceway).



Race One:



#6 L Diz



#3 Table Games



#1 Upstroke Hanover

great card today in the Catskills. these are the only things i can win at these days!

[Teach]

Race Two:

Can Jimmy Marohn, Jr. sweep the double? #1 Jezal Theory A draws inside; will be very dangerous from there. Should be sitting "the pocket". Pounce in the stretch. #6 See You Smile looks like major danger. Will be shooting out for lead from his six-hole. How easily does he make front. If he can get it easily, he becomes a threat to go gate to wire. Others to nconsider underneath are: #5 Benzorama A and #7 Election Day.

[Teach]

Race Three:

#2 Hot Pistol was the beaten fave in his last in this company; can make amends. #3 Hero's Cavalcade has been facing better; should enjoy the slightly weaker field. #4 High Hopes Cruiser hasn't shown much lately; but in this field... Billy Parker's (I called one of his milestone wins at Foxboro Raceway in the mid-1980s) is a plus. #6 President's Seal might just complete a gimmick.

[Teach]

Race Four:

#5 Handsoffmycookie is a Cambest-bred "monster". Tim Tetrick handles the reins. Should prevail. Underneath: #1 Ryder Blue Chip; #2 New York Kitty; and #6 Jk Fine Art.

[Teach]

Race Five:

#5 Bijou Theater gets my nod here. Ray Schnittker (DeweyCheatemAndHow-fame) is in the bike. I feel Schnittker must leave (as Bartlett did in her last at Batavia) in order to prevail. #1 Hepburn BlueChip looks like the major danger. She draws the pylons. #6 Joya Fra is a longshot try. She was third in this company last time from the eight-hole at Batavia. #2 Destiny's Calling has won two straight; a factor underneath here.

Race 8 #5 ROMANTIC MOMENT you can bet what ever you feel like winning on this one this afternoon.

[Teach]

Race Six:

#3 Art Glass has faced slightly better. The most capable Greg Merton drives. The horse threw in a clunker in his last. Can prevail here. Underneath: #1 Music Again; #2 HappyEnding; #5 Four Starzz Lefty.

[Teach]

Race Seven:

#2 Paragon is a well bred horse with lifetime earnings of over 400K. He has faced better in the past. Greg Merton in the bike looking for two in a row. Underneath: #1 Million Dollar Baby; #3 Buzzd On Sudzz; #7 Coromandelprince A
