So many with chances here. I will highlight the likely longest shot: Patent Pending Tom. Gelding has 13-0-1-0 record on turf, yet Linda Fisher has repeatedly scratched past couple of weeks when races came off grass. Gets the rail, but also gets bug. Occasionally attempts to detonate at big odds. Might be good fodder in dime supers.

Not gonna pound my head with these non-winners of two - too many have a chance. But will have a little fun: dime super...1-2-6-10-11 And a woolworth saver in an exacta box: 5/10 Just couldn't get into the horses today. Need to recharge.

As a nutjob old dribbling cat freak I have to be rooting for the TOM and the Rocketman although the Lump CHIEF THUNDERCLOUD is catching a lot of action.
I cover the #1 W/P and over while I box the 2/5/11 zacta.

Couldn't resist and expanded that exacta to 3-5-10 ex & tri box. If Patent Pending Tom wins, that should be a nice DD, though I didn't even look at the payouts. It's because of my compulsive nature that I just withdrew a sizeable chunk of funds from the account and transferred them back to checking. Just to avoid temptation, though it's just as easy to put money right back into the betting account. Logical Order is a slight overlay...how often does Ramon ride for Pancho? Always like Phil Serpe, so didn't leave him out. The #10 is a question mark, as are others in this field.

Bomb Lump LINNET gets home but at least I catch the place dough OK on Rocketman's 43/1 Mega Bomb at 43/1.

Man, that was a thriller! Should have just bet two across on the Tom or wheeled in exactas, but I wasn't up to it; also, didn't want to offend my bashers here who claim I know nothing. More offensive was True Linnet winning; had given up on him after touting him last two outings and Abel Lezcano actually went through a hole to win. I did say that a jockey always has room for improvement, so that's a hopeful sign for this rider. Enjoy the evening.

The $37.20 place payoff was nice but I should have done better with balls and a brain with the LINNET Lump. I was a fan of the dam IRISH LINNET when she raced for Leo O'Brien.

Two empty Schaefer cans get me a dime at the beer docks, Rocketman. A mismatch is no match at the races.
Oh, by the way, I read the post you wrote about your mother.
Ain't nobody had girls for Moms like we had except for earlier generations. I have your mother in my prayers today on Mothers Day and thank her for turning loose a good boy like you. Pop must have been a good one as well and I'm sorry I missed him.
