In the 2nd at Turfway, Writeitontheice runs. This son of Keen Ice is a special horse to me. He ran 2nd at 33-1 in the NHC and that place money helped get me into the final day for a tourney cash. His coat is as white as winter snow and he is one of this Earth’s most noble creatures.

Kudos to my 7yo son. First year of fantasy football & is 7-5 doing it himself and giving a bunch of has-been adults their lumps, including his father.

What @ejxd2.bsky.social wrote here is important, foundational advice. If you think a favorite can’t be beaten leverage that in multi-race wagers. All the more powerful if you like a price to single in another leg.
Red Carpet fair odds: Focus on a shipper who has been immaculately spotted.

I’m enjoying a timeline without the clutter and with significantly more friendliness abound. I feel freer. I think this place is going to get most of my illogic and 1/3-baked insights.
