DAY 10 SUNDAY JUNE 10

Race 4:

Debating between 3 & 9, alternates: 5/7
We hate the 1, Exchange Lay it.

EDIT AFTER SCRATCHES: 3/5 not running, took 9

Race 6:

1/2/6 main contenders, alternates: 4/9/10

EDIT AFTER SCRATCHES: Vacillating between 2 & 6...we'll stay w/ the longshot-- in so doing we're basically saying re the 2: if you're so good, as the pp's indicate, why are you running for a tag... and this low to boot?

Rrace 9:

1/4/8 main contenders, alternates: 5/9/6

EDIT AFTER SCRATCHES: Staying here w/ the longshot as well. MUST have improved from 2 to 3, esp. if it's going to gun from the inside... or we'll also take unforeseen closing ability(not just stalking).

Pending scratches & barring sudden weather / surface change, we're going the longshot route today. We have no choice--  we have too many long prices among our contenders. If we let even one get away, we'll really be in a hole; conversely, if we hit just one we'll sweep to the lead...two might put us beyond reach of all.

We may get eliminated today... so be it.

Good luck.

EDIT AFTER SCRATCHES: We're breathing a sigh of relief after the scratches in the 4th-- 3/9/5 were all strong & now we don't have a quandary of longshot flyer vs solid contender... the decision's made for us. As well our day does not ride on longshots in all races; while we do stay on longshots in the next two, the solid choice here should hit the board and allow us to take a coupla flyers afterwards.
We happen to be riding twice on Trainer Pompay in the bookend races btw. We need for her charge in the last race to have matured enough since last season to put up a bigger number...and hopefully as well to have learned to rate even more.

Buona fortuna.
