Friday Notes & Picks
– There’s a two-day pick six carryover of $161,990 at Aqueduct this afternoon, which I’ll probably end up sitting out since I’m still getting back into the swing of things after my long blogging and handicapping holiday hiatus. I’ve come up with an $864 caveman play, though, to follow through the card: R4: 6, 3, 7/R5: 8, 4, 3, 1/R6: 5, 1, 2(B)/R7: 5, 4, 10/R8: 5, 1(A)/R9: 4, 9. [Results: 5-for-6, with the loss coming in the day’s finale. Kind of glad I wasn’t a caveman.]
– Trainer Steve Asmussen plans to work Curlin a half-mile at Fair Grounds on Sunday (Blood-Horse).
– Steve Davidowitz looks into the future (Bodog).
– Past posting at Aqueduct nets some bettor an $11.40 winning daily double, further erodes horseplayers’ sense of trust in the tote system (NY Daily News).
– Eclipse Award finalists announced, no big surprises (DRF).
