Hello again.

Free ones: Rundown…

Belmont 1, 5, 6, 8, 9
Calder 4, 6
BFHollyPark 5

Pay-side: Today…

Churchill 5, 6, 8, 9, 10
Monmouth 2, 3, 8
Woodbine 5, 6, 9, 10
Pimlico 4, 5
Arlington 5, 8
Louisiana 6, 8
Lone Star 2, 3, 4, 7, 8
Golden Gate 5

Today’s Stakes Pageantry: Wide-open at Arapahoe in Race 8, that track’s eponymous Sprint. We give #8 Streakin’ Mohican a decent shot to run to that billing.

Even crazier today at Beulah, Race 7, the Green Carpet over the sandy-brown main track. #4 Fuzzy Dee Jay is no worse than any of the others entered.

Maybe #4 Whistle Cat can disrupt the exotics prices in the ninth at Emerald, the Auburn.

Yesterday’s Activity: Bumping up against time. Sorry.

Nocturnal Submission: She’s rested (after a 610-day layoff, we should certainly hope so!), but is she ready? That is the question facing #7 Gurkha in the eighth at Delhi — um, Mountain.

Thank you. Best wishes. “Monday Boxing” tomorrow. Or else “Tuesday Sniping” in 48 hours from now. Until either such time, it’s goodbye. Take care now.
