Another song that sounds like summer. ‘You know marrying money is a full-time job/I don’t need the aggravation/I’m a lazy slob’.

Yesterday’s Activity:

Track (Win Mutuels $20+/Gettable)

Arlington (1/1) — Publicly touted Wayaway, owner of a field-best 90 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis in a contentious race amongst the experienceds, went gate-to-wire to win Race 4 by 3½ at $30.20. Good work.

Arapahoe (0/0) — Rockies lose at San Diego, 4-3; Charlie Blackmon drove in 2 in the loss.

Assiniboia (0/0) — Air China flight makes emergency landing in Winn.

Belmont (1/1) — Publicly touted Romans Paradise, just sneaking in via an 80 on the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis in a contentious Race 6, rallies like the champion he’s on the way to becoming and wins by 3 parts of a length at $30.60. Good work.

Belterra (1/1) — Race 3 was not contentious, but Dual Qualifier Grand Kuma (99, 85) pressed the pace and then drew off to a 4-length score at $31-even. Good work.

Canterbury (2/0) — Twins do not win against visiting Tampa Bay, 7-4; Joe Mauer and Brian Dozier each drove in 2 for Minn.

Churchill (1/1) — No public tout forthcoming on Track Teller in Race 4, owing to low morning-line odds of 5-1; nevertheless, Old-School Champeens, High-Octane Chancers and Progressive-Minded Eggheads alike were dumbfounded to discover ’Teller, owner of a field-best 84 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis, go pretty much gate-to-wire at 15½-1 in a 3-length win at $33-straight. Good work.

Chas. Town (1/0) — Jefferson baseball wins 12th state title.

Delpark (0/0) — Dover Downs scheme follows money-laundering trend.

Emerald (2/½) — Sheelfly for Gold had Fair Odds of 5-1 on a conventionally contentious V6 Betting Line in Race 4; Old-School Champeens collected on her half-length win at $27-even, with no LifeLiner-type backing involved. Half a get.

Fairmount (1/1) — Susan’s Rap took a noncontentious Race 2 via a sharp 90 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis; he went gate-to-wire to win by 3¼ at $34.60. High-Octane Chancers would have had to buck the noncontentious race-label, but it’s pretty certain they did. Good work.

Golden Gate (2/2) — Publicly touted Egyptian Empire was a Dual Qualifier (92, 91) in a contentious Race 3; he went gate-to-wire to win by 1 at $20.20. In Race 6, Mambo Rock had a good-enough 88 on the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis in a contentious lineup; he won by 1¼ at $21.20. Good work.

Gulf (0/0) — Marlins suffer 6-4 home loss to Metropolitans; Martin Prado homered for Miami.

Hazel (1/½) — Race 6 scenario similar to that of the Emerald commentary. Beg Mel had Fair Odds of 5-1 on a contentious V6 Betting Line, and he won by a clean head at $30-straight. Half a get.

Hastings (2/1) — The opener was not contentious, but High-Octane Chancers were going to latch onto the field-best 87 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis; Authority Taken did not wire them, but she won by a clean neck at $25.60. Good work.

Los Alamitos (0/0) — Angels fall short, 8-7, at Pgh.; Yunel Escobar and Kole Calhoun each drove in a pair for Los Anaheim.

Marquis (2/1) — Lasting Cash had a competitive 92 on the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis in a contentious Race 7; she rallied like the champion she should have been, winning by a clean head at $25.60. Good work.

PennNat (1/0) — Fightin’ Phils lose at home to Milwaukee, 6-3; Cesar Hernandez had a 2-run homer for Philalala.

Keystone (3/1) — Race 2 was contentious, and Restrike qualified for contenderhood via a competitive 82 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis; she went gate-to-wire pretty much for a half-length win at $88-straight. Good work.

Pimlico (2/1½) — Race 2 had a bunch of firsters and two OK experienceds, both of whom qualified via one LifeLiner analysis or the other; Panamaniac was a strong 86 on the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis, and she rallied like the champion she’s on her way to becoming, winning by 2¾ at $41.20. In the eighth, Coco as in Chanel was a fine player for Old-School Champeens, best of the North Americans at Fair Odds of 4-1 on a contentious V6 Betting Line, but with no LifeLiner backing. She won at $34.20 for those selfsame Old-School Champeens. Good work.
