Well, since it is a holiday, and I've probably learned more about sports betting from reading Perpetual Czech's posts than anyone else on the internet:

Race 4
#11 Captain Charisma 8/1 ML

For visual handicappers, these are the kind you like. Nothing in the trouble line or PP's that gives any indication what really happened in his last race. Qunionez essentially did everything wrong. Coming off a 6 month layoff, CC showed good speed and was actually w/in a neck of the leaders early in the race. While racing on the rail, Quinonez allowed the horse to be continually shuffled back until finally he had to check hard at the 3/8 and dropped far behind near the back of the pack. He regained momentum and was really traveling well in the stretch and easily would have been 2nd in the race. Gets a rider switch today as I can't imagine Aguirre was too happy w/ what took place. Looks like a real trier, should be tighter today, and is not facing world beaters in here today. Nice outside draw to allow Potts an opportunity to send or rate. Horse has much more natural speed than shows on paper. GL

Captain Charisma never seriously threatened the winner and ran a distant 4th.
