After averaging 3 top choice winners for the Hollywood meet we tossed an ugly "zero" last night. Kind of nice to get to come back in 12 hours and try to get back on the winning track.
Early post, Friday night racing, and a lot of races...names and numbers only on some of the selections.
PREAKNESS RACE 12 AT PIMLICO
7 LOOKIN AT LUCKY has only lost 3 lifetime races and in all three he had trips from you know where

10 PADDY O'PRADO
12 DUBLIN
2 SCHOOLYARD DREAMS
race 1 slightly above average clarity
4 Shine'n Time our 3 selections in this race all faced each other on 23 Apr. in a fast heat....this filly gets top billing based on the fact that her last victory was 2nd out after the layoff...same scenario today
6 This Time Baby in her race 2 back, the 23 April race, I had her as slightly the best that day...can rebound to that strong effort
5 Pretty Kinzie strong race for her new barn in the aforementioned race beating our top 2 picks....a ton if moves forward
race 2 average clarity
2 Young Joe 10 weeks off but sharp drills and takes a very significant drop in claiming....blinkers off....barn is good with this equipment change
9 Self Insured woke up in last and now drops....seems to appreciate Hollywood
7 Major General poor trips in last 2 races hides this one's ability......very positive change in riders for today
3 Wagels believe we can ignore this horse's last 2 races at SA...think they were preparation for Hollywood where this gelding has won both of his races run there....plus....barn is good 3rd out after the layoff
race 3 slightly above average clarity
3 Tuscan Moon good 1st time on the main track run over at SA......works at Hollywood since suggest a strong appreciation for the Hollywood synthetic...believe we see a good move forward today
7 Multifaceted MSW weight drop down is owned by the Derby winning farm so why not drop to score...they are in a much improved financial position after their victory two weeks ago
1 L'Enchanteresse seems priced right but will need a good trip from a difficult post at the 7F distance
6 Sweet Patricia showing some ability but will need a sizable move forward here to compete for the win
race 4 average clarity
1 Equiparado Avilia is very good with claims if freshens up and works powerfully
2 Afleet Ruler his problem isn't running big it is understanding he needs to pass that last horse...Bejarano must stay after him late
