Some insights into tonight’s finals-of series racing program
(and Happy Easter…no horse-race wagering tomorrow in New York State).
1ST RACE – (3) WAVES OF FIRE A outraced his odds as a ’30’ when taken from last. Far from proven number here, moves inside four places, gonna be value.
2ND RACE – (6) MISSISSIPPI STORM did not get best of joy rides in local return. Took while getting seated from eight-hole, closed sharply for second, gaze.
3RD RACE – (4) FASHION BYTHEBEACH gets another four-eyeball after solid, first-up effort at 24-1 week ago. Perhaps someone can tow him into it tonite.
5TH RACE – (2) SMALLTOWNTHROWDOWN had to be giddy when the word ‘handicap’ was gone from this adult-table trot. Can’t ignore from this venue.
6TH RACE – (5) DR. J HANOVER wins the award for rottenest luck in Levy this time around. As ‘reward’, he’s taken to dispose of these other series also-rans.
7TH RACE – (7) OUR MAX PHACTOR N makes a U-S purse after pair of across-bridge qualifiers. Have no idea what to expect, so gaze for future reference.
9TH RACE – (8) SEASWIFT JOY N is sort of ‘have to’ gaze in 11th final of B-C Matchmaker. We’ve been driving her bandwagon, draws stinks, price won’t.
10TH RACE – (4) BETTOR’S FIRE N made the esteemed co-host smartest man in room winning two back. Taken to be put in play in conso. of Levy Series.
11TH RACE – (6) RODEO ROCK is the choice in 32nd G-M Levy Memorial Pacing Series. Solid at both ends of mile in latest, has to hope rivals mix it up here.
$2 +/- (thru Tue., Apr. 16) – 74 wins ($457.80)
from 412 ($824) selex (-$366.20, Easter Bunny continues to vouch for us)
highest-priced winner – MALNIFICENT ($24)
lowest-priced winner – RICH AND MISERABLE ($2.40)
