Wake up! Drink that coffee, down that aspirin! Bacchus was last night! Need to get ready for Proteus and Orpheus this evening!

Alas, no free ones today, but the hire-side has these…

Rundown
Fair Grounds 3, 5, 10
Sam Houston 2, 6, 11
Turf Paradise 6, 7, 9

That Fair Grounds 3 today is the event of your afternoon. Hit that one and you’ll be able to drive out to the Ruth’s Chris in Metry for a sizzling butter-drenched ribeye. (Interesting side dish: Did you know that the Ruth who made Ruth’s Chris what it is today was actually a licensed Thoroughbred trainer? You could look it up! Eat that, Watson! Full disclosure: This is not an advertisement. For the non-national-chain clubhouse steak experience, we prefer Mastro’s on Beverly Canon! Hoo-boy.)

All right, all right. Here’s the WMF Report: Sam Houston and Philadelphia Pharx (minus Chase Utley) remain fantastic on the front-end at 6f. …But were you aware that Portland also is going full-tilt at that distance, WMF 322, with the 5½f also quite tasty, WMF 280. …As for Turf Paradise, go ahead and play for the lead at 5½f, 6½f and 1m. …

Happy Lundi Gras!
