CHURCHILL JUNE 14

TWO: Mrs. Margaret H., Tactical Warning, Grace
Happens, Tazarine. 7/2 Minimum.
Margaret will offer no price so we start a P3

THREE: War Lap, 2/1 minimum. Made for Success if over
6/1.
Good Sermon went from 17 out to7 out and went wide
last time. War lap tired last time but the Form guy
thinks the extra 1/16 will help. What dies he know?

FOUR: Catmantoo, Ketchican, Bullet Rain, Mambo in
Seattle, Sale Pending, Smokey John Sutton.
Bullet and Outtatune are hot.Catmandoo has too many
seconds for me.

FIVE: Nursery Rhyme, Sly Storm, Leocompass, Mailey's
Cat. Minimum 7/2.
Lecompass is the only 2 time winner here. Conditions
look as if they were written for her.

SIX: Hysterical Lady, Cowgirls Don't Cry exacta.
Lady is my favorite horse right now. No value but
along with Curlin the P6 becomes a low price P4.

SEVEN: Miss Mafioso, Zee Zee, CJ's Leelee, Purely
Foxy, Pure Clan. Minimum 7/2.
Clan was in too deep the last 2. Mafioso should be
a nice exacta based on her first turf start/

EIGHT Pyro is one of my favorite horses, but he does
get the hype and that means unreasonably low odds.
He's likely to be 4/5. Top competitor Recapture the
Glory a better bet at 3/1.
But these aren't the only horses with a chance...
Longshot exacta: My Pal Charlie, Unbridled Vicar,
Visionaire, Tiz Now, Tiz Then, Texas Wildcatter
Over Pyro and Recapture the Glory.

Pyro-see my comments on Lady. Hook up with Charlie
if yiou can get $15 on the exacta.

NINE: Golden Yank, Tizdejavu, Wicked Style, Old Man
Buck, any at 7/2 minimum
Exacta: Golden Yank, Tizdejavu over Wicked Style, Old
Man Buck

Tizdejavu on top in a tri with Bugeman,his last race
was a workout/

TEN: Curlin atop exotics. If Tricky Ricky Dutrow was
the trainer, this race would be a foregone conclusion.
But the rest of us know there is no sure thing in
horse racing. The Champ might be bet down to 1/5.
Delightful Kiss, a Grade 2 win at the distance.
Einstein, two good races at the distance.
Grasshopper, three good races at the distance.
Barcola. Won his last, a vastly underrated race, and
20/1 ML is a giant overlay.

Curlin stands alone.
Brass Hat. Five wins at the distance.
That's a $60 superfecta with Curlin on top.
Alternative: Curlin over Barcola, for a one-shot
exacta.

ELEVEN: Dreaming of Anna (119-100) atop exotics. Gomez
only helps her chances.
Street Sounds (119-99) with Albarado.
Ciao (118-101) but Luzzi is a negative on turf.
Exacta: Dreaming of Annawith Street Sounds and
Ballymore Lady underneath

Anna runs out the Pick whatever. Ballymore for exacta.
