Turned out to be a real good day for me with a nice win for the day but so close to being a pretty nice day for me.

Race 1: I ended up having a couple of $10 win bets here on High Academy and Bohemian Dancer thought the later was going to get there for a bit but Skyleda was to strong on the line, I liked Skyleda but the odds just weren't there to have anything on IMO. Small loss but nothing dangerous

Race 2: As much as I love Roman Squire $2.10 is far to short he is a real promising horse hopefully they can keep him in good order for a few more years as he gives the feeling he could turn into a real nice older horse and I do know he is 5 right now about to turn 6 not like he would be the 1st horse by Desert King to continue to improve as an older horse in this country. No bet here in the end other than a $10 all up that did no good

Race 3: had no bet here again couldn't get excited about this race

Race 4: I didn't mind Primal Impulse but I felt the odds were to short for the jockey that was engaged so I ended having $20 on Tenshi which i thought was a bit unlucky had a $3 quinella here with Primal Impulse, Tenshi & Solar Secret here shame Aim So High didn't fall over or something once again a loos but it was a sustainable one

Race 5: Left this race alone just couldn't get excited at all about it

Race 6: Earlier in the week I threw $50 on Sniper's Bullet at $9 and I am laughing now he always had the feel of a horse that with a guy like Williams involved I thought they would take advantage of the weight and try and push forward a bit when he landed where he did I was extremely confident he would win and that he did, I also had $10 e/w on Hard to Catch pre post wouldn't have touched him today but i thought his was a bottler of a run really hit the line hard, I had $5 e/w on Mr Ubiquitous on tuesday aswell at $61W and $16pl and had given up on him when the track had dried out a bit in the end he still nearly managed to survive the slaughter job from Seamer and almost pluck 3rd place. All in all a great result here didn't have a tri or anything just couldn't decide on one so getting $450 off of Sniper's Bullet pretty much made the day for me.

Race 7: After the win in the straddie I was happy but this was a tough derby and decided to have a stab at the 3 horses i had mentioned Resolution, King of the Nile and Volcanic Star having $10 e/w on them all and to be honest I was gutted here this was one of the worst protest decisions i have seen and good knows i have been on the wrong side of a few of them, if Oliver keeps Empires Choice straight as he is supposed to do he would not have won not to mention the inerference he caused to Volcanic Star. I feel bad for connections and trainer here as I really feel they were ripped it is hard enough for these guys to get horses to these races let alone winning them. I managed to have a win off of this race and keep on a bit of a roll

Race 8: Had $20 e/w on Stylish Qualo here and am still waiting for it to fire a shot very average effort. Lost $40 here but had that won anyway.

Good day and get to go to the local Rocky races tomorrow and see the Rocky Cup and Newmarket which have both been moved to sunday this year thanks to the inclement weather. Now just sit back and wait for monday and hope i can continue to roll there.
