Yesterday’s Activity<\/strong>: <\/p>\n

Track (Win Mutuels $20+\/Gettable)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Aqueduct (0\/0)<\/strong> — Porzingis, Anthony return; Sasha Vujacic still in the league, contributes 7 pts. in 22. mins. off the bench in Knickerbocker rout of Phoenix.<\/p>\n

Delta (2\/0)<\/strong> — Rien, cher<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Fair Grounds (2\/1)<\/strong> — Nightcap upsetter Lifelong Dream ($44.40) was the LifeLine Dream (in the Spread Column, anyway, a field-high 86 there). But ’Dream was not toutable, owing to the presence of a seemingly unbeatable 4-5 fave, who wound up second. As you must realize by now, this happens, and not infrequently.<\/p>\n

Golden Gate (1\/0)<\/strong> — Hyper Bowl L comin’ at ya in 8 days from now; its QB duel can be summed up thusly: ‘HGH — A Li’l Dab’ll Do Ya’.<\/p>\n

Gulf (2\/1)<\/strong> — All Up in Lights, $57.80, won Race 9 as your publicly touted Second Bonkersmate. At press-time, we ran the numbers for the race for its original 7½f turf configuration, and it came up contentious, All Up in Lights a Dual Qualifier (83, 86). Good enough for the mopes this time.<\/p>\n

Sam Houston (1\/0)<\/strong> — After the Rockets, the Greatest Team in Houston Sports History. Ladies & gentlemen, your Houston Aeros…AEROS…<\/p>\n
