Race 8 - # 4 Luck (Final Odds 1.60*) - "B" Selection
Race 9 - The Best Pal - # 3 Pappacap (2.30) - "A" Selection
Race 10 - The Yellow Ribbon - # 8 Princess Grace (3.60) - "C" Selection
Race 11 - # 12 Uncaged Kitty (4.70) - "B" Selection
In her last start prior to Saturday, Princess Grace had won the Grade 3 Dr. James Penny Memorial Stakes as the Post Time even money Favorite. The Dr. James Penny was Princess Grace's first start of 2021, coming off a nearly eight month layoff. I therefore expected Princess Grace to regress off that effort. I also did not think that Princess Grace would be able to handle the rise in class to the Grade 2 Yellow Ribbon, as Saturday's field contained several runners who were multiple Graded Stakes winners. However, Princess Grace proved me wrong on both counts, and her victory Saturday was the difference between me cashing and contributing.
Oh well; onto the next race.
Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Four sequence of 4 / 3 / 8 / 12 were rewarded with a payout of $105.25 for their fifty cent wager. May God bless them as they spend their winnings.
Peace and Love,
Jimbo
