Race 3 was for the High-Octane Chancers: Smoking the Field ran to that billing in a noncontentious race; however, the qualifying 82 was there on the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis, and the High-Octane Chancers were not going to let it get by at $63.80 up top. Good job. In Race  6, a contentious race, winner Eminent Force, $38.60, was your Dual Qualifier (99, 86) and was a grab for the hybrid contentious-race\/LifeLiner Speed Column &#038; LifeLiner Spread Column modernists. Good job. And in the finale, Little John W rewarded the Old-School Champeens as a straight-edge overlay (Fair Odds of 5-1 in a contentious Betting Line without any LifeLiner support) returning $49.80. On all three accounts, good job.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hawthorne (3\/1)<\/strong> &mdash; Dual Qualifier Won&rsquo;tualwayswonder ($22.20) redeemed a contentious finale.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Los Alamitos (1\/0)<\/strong> &mdash; Anaheim trails La-La Land by 6 pts. with a game in hand in the Pacific Division of the Western Conference of the Big-League Ice Hockey standings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Laurel (1\/1)<\/strong> &mdash; Dual Qualifier Big Zapple (82, 83) was King of The <del datetime=\"2016-03-20T19:44:35+00:00\">NetCapper Bullies<\/del> Nightcap at $34.40.

In the opener, G P&rsuqo;s Girl had the barely sufficient 81 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis; but the race was contentious, and G P&rsquo;s Girl went gate-to-wire to win by 3 at $42-even. Then in Race 4, first-timer Tessa&rsquo;s Heart had the sufficient connection-line readout of 21pc\/13pc\/15pc in a contentious affair: $31.20 up top.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PennNat (0\/0)<\/strong> &mdash; Keystone State ice-hockey showdown goes to the Flightless Birds, 4-1, over the Grounded Flyers.

However, High-Octane Chancers would have put the cowboy boot to the accelerator and smashed through the roadblock by noting that Emotional Drive had the good-enough 87 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis. And Emotional Drive attended the running all the way around en route to a win by three parts of a length. Publicly touted Cardiac had the gate-to-wire triumph in the finale, a contentious setup, courtesy of an 84 in the LifeLiner Spread Column; he paid $34.20.
