Good morning now! <\/p>\n

Free<\/a> ones<\/strong>: Rundown…<\/p>\n

Pay-side<\/strong> (Weekday<\/a>\/Weekend<\/a>): Today…<\/p>\n

Tampa<\/strong> 2, 3, 4, 5, 8
\nTurf Paradise<\/strong> 1, 6, 7, 8<\/em><\/p>\n

Today’s Stakes Pageantry<\/strong>: One today at Turf Paradise<\/strong>, Race 4<\/strong>, and sadly it looks like a match race between the two shortest-priced horses on your morning line. Regretsz!<\/p>\n

Yesterday’s Activity<\/strong>: When you tout the night before the races, you have to use some sort of arbitrary value cutoffs. You don’t have knowledge of the post-time odds, so you sort of guess who’ll be an acceptable price. The main instrument used to carry out the guessing: the morning line.<\/p>\n

We go with an 8-1 minimum. Who knows why. But the dangers of touting are made apparent when some horsey whose morning line is 6-1 or lower somehow gets away at a ridiculous price. Such was the case yesterday for your Race 9 at Sam Houston Race Park and Dog Walk. <\/p>\n

We had this horsey named Bold Cait, second-best on your conventional V6 Betting Line in a contentious race, Fair Odds of 3-1. On the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis, Bold Cait was top of the top: 97. Her morning line was a mild and reasonable 6-1.<\/p>\n

Note that well, because ’Cait was not anywhere near that optimistic morning line. Bold Cait was not higher than seventh-choice in the wagering, in an 8-horse lineup. Hoo-boy. Bold Cait went off at 10¢ shy of 22-1 when the bell rang.<\/p>\n

Bold Cait rallied like the champion she’s on her way to becoming, as befit her complete LifeLiner array of 83-77-97. She won by a clean neck and paid $45.80-straight. The odds-on choice was your runner-up, OK on LifeLiner, and the surprise-winner exacta paid $137-even. <\/p>\n

As always, hope you had ’em!<\/p>\n
