Last night my $24 whale ticket only had one of the four winners.

Championship Meet totals: standard ticket, 18 plays, – $69 with one winning $61.50 winner; whale ticket, 10 plays, two winning tickets, one for $53.00 and one for $61.50, -$177.50; Ticketmaker totals, two plays, -$84.

Standard ticket: $1 play: 1268/34/10/9 = $8
Whale ticket: 50 cent play: none
DRF Ticketmaker tickets: none tonight

Analysis:

Race 7: This is the toughest race of the four. I’m using all four of my listed contenders, 1, 2, 6, 8.

Race 8: This is a good race but I’m going to use the two classiest, (4) Radar Contact and (3) Anndrovette.

Race 9: (10) Thinking Out Loud should be tough at this level and I’ll single him.

Race 10: (9) McWicked needed last, finished well against the bias at Harrah’s Philadelphia. I’m going to single him.
