Nice hit on Wednesday's selection from GP $16.20 winner on top, $92.40 exacta and a $257.20 trifecta! Making $$$$ here at FREAKS FORUM !



GP Race 6 Clm $25,000 (3:42 ET)

#10 Scottkeith’skitten 7/2
#3 Thisonesforelmo 4/1
#9 Big Blue Streaker 8/1
#11 Phoenix’s Force 10/1

#10 Scottkeith’skitten lost any chance of being in the mix last out when Leparoux had to take up and it appeared he might have clipped heels, losing all momentum on the far turn. The colt was the weaker half of a short priced entry owned by Ken Ramsey. His previous three starts all produced double digit length losses but those were all versus tougher, two of those efforts coming in stakes company. The colt makes his second start off a two month break for the high percentage Maker barn and I am looking for a better finish if he gets a better trip.
#3 Thisonesforelmo ships in from Woodbine where the colt is coming off a fifth place finish on poly for a $62.5K tag. His lone turf try came three back, a fifth place finish in the maiden ranks behind repeat winner Bear Tough Guy, who won the Grey Stakes (G3) in his next outing on Oct. 11. The Lynch barn is 39% winners (with a +ROI) moving runners from the fake stuff to turf. He looks well spotted here dropping in for a $25K tag.
