Good Moves, Monster Alert, Pace Move

No good deed goes unpunished. Took Sunday off to lend assistance where necessary. And, it cost me. At Belmont these 'move' horses performed well:

Fourth: Victory Assured won at 6-1
Sixth: Western Slang ran second at 14-1
Eighth: Blue Devil Bel won at almost 7-1

Oh well, guess I'll get my rewards in heaven!

Monster Alert
Wise Pitch (84-1) is rounding to form off of three consecutive moves. If trainer Araya, changes anything-especially jocks-look out!

The Other Move
There is another running line move that I frequently play. This one has been better publicized, and is easier to follow. It identifies superior last-race pace runners.
Here is the criteria:

• Last race has to be within 20 days.
• At the pre-stretch call, qualifier must have been within one-length of the leader
• Pace time must be less than :46.2 for 6 furlongs,
less than 1:11 for one mile
less than 1:12 for a mile and an eighth

• Horse can not have won race before last

Prices for this play run about 4-1. Usually a good performance. (Note: California tracks excluded because of the emphasis on speed). We will definitely keep track of these as well as 'monsters' at horseplayerunited.com
