This is a very bettable card. It is a shame I will be watching Winthrop and Wake Forest play baseball in Rick Hill, SC, so I will not be betting. Head tot he Carolinas for several days, home for a day for Passover and then to Indiana for Harness Horse Youth Foundation stuff and then to St Louis for a reptile show. Picks will resume either Saturday April 23 or Monday April 25. I may be able to get you Pick 4 plays this weekend.
By the way, it was great to see so many of you Saturday night while I was at the races for Orange Boosters Night. It took me nearly two hours to smoke 3/4 of my 45-minute cigar. I appreciate all the kind words.
Somewhere in today's picks is a pretty obvious pop song reference. First person to e-mail me with what it is, I have a prize for you. klgisser@earthlink.net. Good luck and see you in a bit.
Race 1: 2 Mac Atack Mac- Did good work against NW$200 two back, this drop really helps; 3 Catherinethegreat- Disappointed last time, another chance; 8 My Mystique- Snowman hurts, but she contends with her best.
Race 2: 6 Date Worthy- Eligible At Time of Entry is huge in this class; 4 Redzilla- Usually does decent work, but has been stuck here for a while; 3 Canadian Frontier- Did moderate work in his return and may improve.
Race 3: 3 Spiced Pork- The “beat Miss Tilly” angle again; 6 Miss Tilly- Did well to recover from the break; 5 Mr Bing- Needs to do more, but seems to be improving every start.
Race 4: 9 Ron Jeremy- Gets class relief and a slight call here; 2 Fancy Schmansy- NW1L8 and I will be flipping my top two on the exactas and tris; 1 Right On Time- usually hangs around; 5 Robin Dontget- Another chance at the bottom after a costly break.
Race 5: 6 Benn’s Thunder- $285K in the bank while the other seven have $156 combined, class tells; 1 Red Raider- Raced well in the return and will be close early; 5 Spring Fling- Robin chose off a Hollar-trainee to drive.
Race 6: 6 Contech- Talented youngster has not shown his best yet; 5 Prime Number- Experience helps and he may be starting a good run of form; 4 Valentinos Peace- was overmatched against $300 per start, a chance.
Race 7: 1 J D’s Turismo- Beat an exceptional group for this class Saturday, best bet; 3 Rhino- Sharp and there is little difference between $2500 and $3000s; 5 Dragoninthekash- Needs to sustain his work; 6 Scoozi- Was way overbet Saturday, but like the top pick, faced better.

Race 11: 4 Cold Splash- Always gives effort and finds a good spot here; 5 Brother Nick- Seems better without Lasix; 1 Gate Keeper- Seems better with Lasix.
Race 12: 3 Vivacious Raider- Did big work on the drop to this level; 1 Scoot To The Top- Has a free-legged mile under him and should improve; 4 Cn Loufly Loretta- Always finds a way to hang around, wraps the tri.
Race 13: 2 Up Front Carl- Showing slight signs of waking up; 5 Mcguigan N- So is he; 3 Lt Commander- Needs sustained effort, but could easily win if he gets Josh gets it; 9 Dm Ion- Class dropper ships from Canada and could be anything.
