Happy New Year! Twenty-thirteen is here! Ja!

Free ones: Rundown…

Aqueduct 9
Gulf 2, 6, 8
Santa Anita 4, 5, 8, 9

Pay-side: Today…

Laurel 5
Turfway 4, 5, 8, 9, 10
Sunland 6, 7, 11
Turf Paradise 4, 6, 8
Golden Gate 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

Today’s Stakes Pageantry: Gulf 8 and Santa Anita 8 (respectively, Ginger Brew, Blue Norther, both on turf) on the free page.

Before that, the third at Aqueduct, the Ladies, looks strong for #4 R Gypsy Gold.

Similarly prohibitive for #5 Little Distorted in Gulf 5, the Grade III Old Hat.

Then an upset looms in the ninth there, their eponymous Derby, where #1 Undrafted can score for free agents the world over.

WMF Report:

Early
Laurel 6f
Turf Paradise 5½f, 6f

Nocturnal Submission: Night off…

Thank you. Best wishes. Goodbye.
