One Brave Cat fills me up in Big A second

Two monster moves in the second at the Big A. Shamroge opened at 6-5. Ed Lotruglio's One Brave Cat, Bocachica up, went postward at 17-1. Easy decision. Cat was never threatened in completing a $71 double with first race odds-on horse. Main meal mutuels of $35.2, 9.8, with a $196 exacta as gravy. Dessert will be served next as the smallest double in my wheel is $168. I'm full!

3rd race observation: Broadway Producer and More than a Reason, don't like to win. We'll see!

Wadi Suki, Ezzy get 2010 off to a bang!

Two monster movers, at the big A, got the new year off to a profitable start. In the last race on January 1, Wadi Suki lead wire-to-wire for a return of $34 , 12.8 and 6.9. Jockey Souza's first win of the meet. Time to watch trainer Gary Contessa.

Ezzy, trained by Bernardo Callejas and ridden by jockey Hill, wired the field to complete a $401 first double, yesterday and paid mutuels of $47.8, 13.4 and 8.20.

Hello 2010. I'm ahead for the whole year (sic).
