Weekend in Kentucky

[Smitty]

9th race, American Turf

The 4, Stark Contrast, is the most likely winner. ML is 4-1, and will probably drop. I'll bet him to Win all the way down to even money.

Bet him just a few minutes before Post. He was 8-5. Dropped to 6-5. Fuck. Well, a win is a win. I knew I wasn't getting 4-1 on him.

Late scratch of the 21. Now we'll never know if he had a little surprise for us today.

Golden Tempo(19) - I think with an absolutely perfect trip, this horse would have a shot at hitting the board. And he's 30-1. That said, he's had trouble in 3 of his 4 races, it's possible he bounces off his last effort, and he's starting towards the outside. I'm not sure even 30-1 is a fair price to bet on him.

I guess 23-1 was a very fair price.

Oh well, we'll get 'em next year.
