Yesterday’s Activity:
Track (Win Mutuels $20+/Gettable)
Belmont (1/0) — Jankees edge host Detroit, 5-4; Jacoby Ellsbury had 3 RBI for New York.
Belterra (1/1) — Nominally contentious Race 4 goes to Shimmy, barely qualified via her 80 on the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis. She rallied to win by 2 at $23-even. Good work.
Churchill (1/0) — Protesters upset with beer garden’s proximity to recovery group.
Chas. Town (0/0) — Local recovery services coordinator speaks out about local heroin epidemic.
Delpark (1/0) — 23 Del. police depts. get 450 naloxone kits.
Evangeline (2/1) — Race 3 won by He’s All Ours, possessor of a good-enough 84 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis in a contentious race. He went virtually gate-to-wire to win by 4 at $33.20. Good work.
Finger (0/0) — Sodus parolee faces 9 felony drug charges.
Gulf (1/0) — 6 medical professionals arrested for alleged fraud: DEA.
Louisiana (0/0) — Major traffic jam following crash on I-49 in Shreveport.
PennNat (0/0) — Fightin’ Phils lose seventh straight, this time at home to Milwaukee, 4-1; Maikel Franco homered for Philalala.
Presque (1/1) — Dual Qualifier Storm On Bye (83, 90) won Race 7 by a clean neck at $21-straight; the race was not contentious, so maybe only High-Octane Chancers were eligible. Good work.
Pimlico (1/0) — Orioles smash 7 HR in 12-7 home win over Boston; Mark Trumbo and Adam Jones had 2 HR apiece for Balto.
Prairie (0/0) — Cedar Rapids sees increase in shots-fired incidents.
