Please…do not bite your screen…
Now that he’s got plenty of time on his soft, uncalloused hands, Jebrico Bushzales should take his so-called Establishment Tookus and $7 of the $21-million remaining in his SuperPAC and hightail it over to NYC for one of these Dannie Meyer fried-chicken sandwiches. This nominal expenditure will be well worth the money, unlike the previous $80-million he went through in Campaign 2016.
Yeah, boys. Chick-fil-A is still good, but we believe it has now met its match. Eat ’em up!

And if he comes back running, #7 Off the Tracks has more than enough talent to take the Gulf 11.
In Santa Anita 2, #6 True Brilliance gets the call.
Yesterday’s Activity:
Track (Win Mutuels $20+/Gettable)
Aqueduct (1/½) — The Old ‘B’-Horse Ploy was good enough in this case, even though the race was not contentious and even though the LifeLiner numbers were not good. This was Race 9 for Spartiatis, second-best on the conventional V6 Betting Line, Fair Odds of 4½-1, and at real-life odds of 19-1. Spartiatis won at $40-even.
Chas. Town (0/0) — Highest point in the State of W. Va.: Spruce Knob (elev. 4,863 ft.)
Delta (1/0) — Louisiana: Drikill Mtn. (535 ft.)
Fair Grounds (2/0) — See Delta commentary.
Golden Gate (1/1) — Publicly and singly touted Sharp Hooq took the eighth at $30.60. The race was contentious and ’Hooq had the qualifying 85 in the LifeLiner Spread Column. Good enough.
Gulf (0/0) — Florida: Britton Hill (345 ft.)
Sam Houston (6/2) — Here’s publicly top-touted My Favorite Stone, $53-straight winner of Race 4. The race was contentious and ’Stone was a Dual Qualifier, 96s in both LifeLiner Speed and LifeLiner Spread, top in both! Hoo-boy. No High-Octane Chancers necessary; bipedal-powered amblers would have gotten there in time, easy. Race 6 was lousy with first-timers, and the experienced Hotrod Justice, best in the LifeLiner Spread Column at 80, accordingly went gate-to-wire to win by 6½ at $24.80.
Los Alamitos (1/0) — California: Mt. Whitney (14,505 ft.)
Mahoning (2/1) — Contentious race, and the LifeLiner Speed Column of 81 was sufficient for the play at 18-1 on Provocative Kiss in Race 7. Alas for the pay-side hopefuls, the laggards in the backroom were unable to get to this one in time for yourselves. Pity. ’Kiss paid $38.80 for the victory.
Oaklawn (1/1) — Race 7 was not contentious, unfortunately; fortunately, for those with no such probability-distribution hangups, Go Vo had an excellent 89 in the LifeLiner Spread column and proceeded to go coast-to-coast for the 4¼-length score at $32.60.
PennNat (1/1) — Simmstown was an 81 on the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis in a contentious race, actual odds of 10-1 in Race 4: $22.80 up top.
Santa Anita (1/½) — Firster Fast Munny had the right connection-line reading: 12pc/15pc/50pc, but the race seemed prohibitive for some other horse. Oh, well. Half a get.
Tampa (5/1) — Only Race 5 was in the realm of possibility: Contentious race, second-best LifeLiner Speed Column rating (88) in the field for Sea Treaty, surprise $21.60 mutuel.
Turfway (0/0) — Kentucky: Black Mtn. (4,145 ft.)
Turf Paradise (0/0) — Arizona: Humphreys Peak (12,367 ft.)

Nocturnal Submission: Sifting through the wreckage…
Thank you. Best wishes. Goodbye. Take care now.
Care Package to arrive Friday. SawZ -all tooth caught the end of Thumb-nail & sawzalled it off-back to the end. YE-OUCH!!!! Urgent Treatment Center only had 8th graders working and they were very scary!!! Wrapped it up & sent me on my way. Doctor the next day got on me for the way thumb was wrapped. That is so tight you will lose it. Not me, it was U.T.C. oh he said. I don’t criticize others but this is dangerous. He fixed me up now. In order to get PAIN MEDZ- Go to hospital and take drug test then wait 3 hours for the resultz they send back to Docs. office. he writes script & you take to Pharmacy. At that point you are flagged for a doper and all doctors in KY are notified. just in case I take my thumb elsewhere. from this point on MY DOC is only one who can give me pain Medz. Lady at lab told me people would pull their own teeth & nails for medz. then take their tooth and nail to all the doctorz they can.
Have been horse racing during recovery stretching it to the limit. Wifey has been on good behavior, being the nurse. PONIEZ a + this month!

By now, you have either lost your thumb altogether or else have it healed it sufficiently to hit ‘Wager’ on your Computer. Hopefully the latter, though one never can tell. As long as they dispense absinthe at the Urgent Treatment Center, you will be in good shape either way. Here’s to The Commonwealth.
