Hey. How’s it goin’ over there?

Free selections as follows

Rundown
Aqueduct 3, 5, 9
Gulfstream 6, 8, 9

That late-double over at the ’Gulf appears especially tantalizing.

For-hire here…

Rundown
Laurel 2, 4, 9
Tampa 3, 4, 8
Turf Paradise 1, 7, 9

As usual, Tampa does not disappoint when the track is fast and the turf is a go.

Track-trends: Chas. Town at 4½f, solid as ever. …Rally-alert at the ’Gulf, where the flat-mile on the turf is at WMF 5. …Not a typo! …Pharx will never race again, same as Oaklawn. …Not true, but they do have alternate forms of gaming at those places! …Finally, WMF 178 at 6f at ’Turf. …

Thank you, and don’t forget to root for Watson on Feb. 14, 15 and 16, 2011, on the television quiz programs.
