Back to The Bowl

Amphitheater season is upon us. Yo, Los Angeles!

Last night it was TLC opening for Philly’s own Boyz II Men, the latter act backed by the House Orchestra. High-energy all the way, and the fellas were hitting all the harmonies, as you would expect. 

BestLine Racing Society Recap: 

Late action on Friday found the big bupkis over at the Del Mar. Almost the same sitch at Century Mile, save for the nightcap there, when 38-1 #5 Remarkable Eli (.177 Win Prob / 4.65-1 Fair Odds / 5.78-1 Premium Odds) salvaged a tight second to the 8-5 public fave #3 Fast Eh (.172 / 4.81 / 5.98) to produce a $212.80 exacta, for $2; the premium price on that pairing was $81.08, for $2.

So far on Saturday it’s been like this: 

Del Mar 1
#7 Top of My Game (.444 / 1.25 / 1.70), $7.20

Gulf 9
#3 Unsociable (.221 / 3.52 / 4.43), $11-even; exacta with runner-up #6 Big Daddy Dave (.294 / 2.40 / 3.08) paid $39-even, for $2; exacta premium price $36.14, for $2

Woodbine 1
#1 Dixie Giant (.193 / 4.18 / 6.25), $21.50

Hard times for our people. Regrets! Come on, Del Mar! Come on, Canterbury (see below).
