G Sciacca so hard to figure -- at Belmont!!!

G Sciacca is really difficult to figure out his horses don't hit the board that often but when they do they usually pay huge prices!!!

His record overall since April 29th is not very impressive in terms of wins and hitting the board but his profits are huge!!!








However, you have to go through many days when there are no profitable gains at all!!!

It is also very difficult to determine what he is good at in terms of race conditions or types of distance!!!

I missed the $78 number he had yesterday

He has these today:
1st race
#3 Forest Boy

3rd race
#1 Manhattan Mischief

7th race
#1 Prophets Cat

8th race
#2 Jet Black
#6 Candid Desire


Let's see if any of them can hit the board at a price today at Belmont!!!

Tougher to figure at Belmont. At least at Saratoga you know to NEVER use on top of ant ticket.

I'd say..Runs 1-2 at Belmont in 8th and wins with the much longer price. #6 at 13-1 outruns the #2 at 2-1..

He seems to keep on doing what he's always been doing which is a low win percentage and a low in the money percentage but a high return per wager!!!



I guess you keep playing his horses and hope that the gap between those big prices is small!!!

Not sure how anyone would be able to predict his winners!!!

G Sciacca has one in the 5th today at Belmont

#10 Cats Halo

Although this is a Turf race his better returns seem to be on the Dirt

Let's see if he can get this one to hit the board at a price!!!

He has had some good runners with August Dawn (Big Tuna) Farms.
I don't even try to figure him out.

It happens every year, just like some horses love the switch to Saratoga, there are some horses who don't perform well there and when they return to Belmont they jump up at good prices. Just another excuse devious trainers use to put them over at generous odds. I was wondering why Sciacca did poorly at the Spa, he usually has one or two good ones at the meet. He was waiting for the return to Belmont this year.

G Sciacca has one in the 3rd race tomorrow at Belmont

#2 Port More

It's very interesting that this is one of the very rare times this year that his horses Morning Line is less than 2-1 as #2 Port More is listed at 8-5.

Since this post G Sciacca is still quite hard to figure at Belmont



Prior to yesterday his horses hit the board in 4 out of 7 races and barely gave $20 across the board in payouts

Fast forward to yesterday and his horses hit the board in 3 out of 4 races giving a $40 payout on $2 across the board which was a 68% return on your money



He has this in the 4th race at Belmont

#7 Cats Halo

Let's see if he can hit the board at a price with this one or maybe it will take 3 or 4 more entries of his before we can see a decent price in the money at Belmont!!!
