Game 7, no goalsz…hoo-boy<\/p><\/div>\n

Bishop keeps NYRAngersz in check, checkmatesz The King. The King Is Dead, Long Live The Bishop. <\/p>\n

Take a deep breath, Blueshirt Rangersz fansz, take a deep breath. It’ll be OK. We are with you in your anger. Breathe in. Deeply. American Pharaoh headed your way in a week’s time. Steady on, now, steady on. Breathe in. We are with you in your anger.<\/p>\n

\nWoodbine<\/strong> 8<\/em><\/p>\n

Today’s Stakes Pageantry<\/strong>: None on the free page! Zero! However, they may be covered with our compliments below. We shall see. On the pay-side it’s Monmouth 11<\/strong>, Woodbine 8<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Tiptoeing around them morning-line fave in Belmont 9<\/strong>, instead preferring the dynamite dyad of #6 Divisidero<\/strong>, #7 Made in Detroit<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Uh-oh. #7 Work All Week<\/strong> hasn’t worked in seven months now, but he’s one of ’em Quintuple Qualifying Horseys in Churchill 8<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Big day of stakes at Evangeline<\/strong>, and it kicks off in Race 5<\/strong> with the equine equivalent of a lotto-ball hopper. Longshot #6 Hot Tempo<\/strong> is no worse than the rest of ’em. Likewise #5 Stormdriver<\/strong> in the sixth<\/strong>. Likewise #8 Shunned<\/strong> (!) and #10 Cajun Spirit<\/strong> in Race 7<\/strong>. Likewise #6 Quick Dagger<\/strong>, #8 Snappy Girl<\/strong>, #7 Reflector<\/strong>, #3 Ty’s Bandit<\/strong> in the eighth<\/strong>. Race 9<\/strong> is left to yourself. Tyvm.<\/p>\n

Going for the straight-up surprise in Finger 7<\/strong>: #1 You Jane<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Another crazy race is Indiana 3<\/strong>, and the outrageous #3 Candy War<\/strong> and #1 Cara Marie<\/strong> cannot be summarily dismissed. Same goes for the zany #9 Another Lemon Drop<\/strong>, #8 Fly Friendly Sky<\/strong>, #7 Tuba<\/strong> in the fifth<\/strong> there.<\/p>\n

Singling-out #7 Strict Compliance<\/strong> in PennNat 1<\/strong>. Race 3<\/strong> there is a complete random-number generator, with #1 Golden Glint<\/strong>, #9 Very Lucky<\/strong>, #2 Street Babe<\/strong>, #5 Cousin STEPHEN<\/strong>, #4 East Hall<\/strong> among the living. Another longshot arrives in the fourth<\/strong>: #11 Gallery<\/strong>. Race 5<\/strong> has #3 Je Suis Enchantee<\/strong> and #4 Where’s Rosie B<\/strong> in with chances at scrumptious odds. <\/p>\n

Prairie 7<\/strong> now, and #9 I’m Workin On It<\/strong> gets top billing. In the eighth<\/strong> there, #5 Big Big Easy<\/strong> and #1 Shrewd Move<\/strong> are potential upsetters.<\/p>\n

Trying for the fave-longshot pairing of #2 Spanish Queen<\/strong> and #3 Dating Lady Luck<\/strong> in Santa Anita 5<\/strong>. Finally, morning-line choice #7 Moreno<\/strong> puts an end to all the longshots with Quintuple Qualifying Horsey status in the eighth<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

OK. Exhale. Whew. Too much horseys. Sometimes. Breathe out.<\/p>\n

Yesterday’s Activity<\/strong>: One good one apiece at Belmont, Santa Anita. As always, hope you had ’em. <\/p>\n
