funny i like egyptian warrior too. i think oceans bertie has had lots of chances. it it that much better on paper than shhhh?

Unfortunately Egyptian Warrior did no running.

Some bad picks and a couple tough beats today, shucks. Tiban almost had it too. A lot of this has to do with my reluctance to bet any M/L favorites or 1st Prime Power as the value is just bad. I never really do WPS wagering across the board on a card but I really want a place to track my ability and what better a place than a permanent record for the internet public too see? It keeps me honest.

You are right about Bertie though, he has had too many chances but he seemed to stack up well numbers wise. In hindsight I should have taken into account that the horse just doesn't have the "it factor" (eg. cant win, dumb bet)

This was kind of a rushed handicapping after i got wind that Aqueduct shut down today. I had only breezed through the Churchill card before this morning.
