Handicappers Corner
My father-in-law (couldn't ask for a better one and I say that with all my heart) passed away last night less than 3 weeks since we put his wife to rest so once again thank you for your patience. Sunday is their 68th wedding anniversary and I guess they can celebrate it after all.
You know the drill. Names and numbers only for today (except for the top pick) and possibly tomorrow.....That's it for parents on both sides of the family so I hope not to be making similar posts for quite some time.
Â
As I've often stated in the past trainers win in bunches and O'Neill has quite a few I've selected in my top 3 selections today. Might want to key around those picks. After all he has been on fire for the meet
