Good beatsz

On-demand numbers listened-to on Day 1: Bach, Goldberg Variations, performed by Glenn Gould, piano; Beethoven, Symphony No. 6 (‘Pastoral’), London Symphony Orchestra, Wyn Morris, Conductor; Chumbawumba, Tubthumping; Lou Bega, Mambo No. 5.

Doubtful that any other user streamed all those selections today — or maybe ever, or maybe ever and ever!

Free ones: Rundown…

Belmont 3, 4, 5, 9
Gulfstream Park Proper 3, 7, 8

Pay-side (Weekday/Weekend): Today…

Delpark 2, 6
Louisiana 1, 6, 7
Tampa 4, 7
Woodbine 4, 5, 6, 7, 9

Today’s Stakes Pageantry: All right, all right, ya Krazie Kanucksz! Take it easy! Take off to The Great White North for your Canada Day 2015, with Woodbine 4 on the pay-side.

Elsewhere in the country, wild-open in Hastings 5, wild-open. #4 Every Nites a Blur is not really that bad in relation to the rest of the field. In Race 8 there, it’s Quintuple Qualifying Horsey #1 Arabella’s Muse. Hoo-boy.

Also looking like legitimate chalk is #6 Queenoftheforest in Northlands 4. Race 8 there is a scramble, and the duo of #4 Holler At the Moon and #3 Saint Warlock are OK.

Back to Woodbine now for the eighth. Do not like the morning-line fave at all — at all. Projecting the winner to emerge from one of #3 Midnight Aria, #4 Pender Harbour, #6 Mystery Train.

OK, Canada. Watch the amount of Labatt’s you drink for your holiday, otherwise you might have to wait 6 mos. in the National Health to get your elective stomach-pump, eh?

Yesterday’s Activity: Speaking of Canada, the noisy neighbors to its south showed the Home Fansz how the game of fútbol is played, grinding out a determined 2-nil win over Deutschland in the Women’s Copa Mundial Semifinal. Still, you have to wonder how this match would have unfolded had Sasic converted her spot-kick to put the Frauschaft up a goal. As well, six-star Argentina blasted past hapless Paraguay and will now go on to face host Chile in the Copa America final. NHL, NBA offseason moves also heating up. Canada’s Bouchard, Romania’s Halep booted from Wimbledon in the opening round. Kroenke, Spanos, Davis all angling to move to La-La Land, relocate to the space vacated by the demolished Hollypark grandstand. Where’s Lee ‘Hacksaw’ Hamilton to sort all this stuff out? Hacksaw’s Hottest Headlines, The Best 15 Mins. in Radio, he wants to talk sports with you. Good night now!
