This trio's worth a look today at Hollywood Park

| | Comments (2) |

Or maybe you'll want to just draw a line through them like I did Mine That Bird when handicapping the Derby.

4th -- Where's Scarlett has the tactical speed to control this race. Talamo is sitting in the garden spot.
7th -- Ventana finished third at Santa Anita at same level on March 11, beaten 5 3/4 lengths while fanned five-wide into the stretch. A better trip today and this guy will be tough.
9th -- Pat's Legacy is ready to stretch out to a mile and sixteenth after three sprint tries and he drops in for a tag for the first time against these maiden claimers. I think he'll be right there.

I wouldn't feel too badly about not having Mine That Bird yesterday. While it's always nice to hear about the "underdog" winning, people that bet and won with that horse yesterday are the same people that win with 10% of their bets by wagering on jockey silks, horses names, horse colors and of course the "grocery shopping wagering system" in which you bet on over half the field with odds over 25-1. Many of these so called winners probably also were holding show tickets. Let these people have their moment in the sun as they don't get it that often. Real professionals know that Mine That Bird winning was a total fluke.

Ing,
Yeah, the same people will probably be playing the horse that finished fourth in the Beulah Park Derby come Preakness time.
