I had another winning day last Saturday and over my last seven selections, I have four wins and two seconds with only one off the board.
As always, the size of the bets indicates the strength of the play. I'm focused on today on Arlington which has a strong card including three grass stakes.

Recap

Another winning day, but a couple of bad breaks kept it from being super.
Five plays, two wins, a second and two off the board.

Wicked Climb got beat a neck, paying a measly 2.10 to place.
Road Track's Dream romped, paying 3.40 and 2.40
Longshot Marcello clunked
Rahystrada rolled at 6-1, paying 14.20 and 6.20
My top play, Hands On, missed the break, and then missed third by a neck. A good break gives him at least second.

Wagered: $119
Cashed: $143.60
Profit: +$24.60

YTD keeps moving up, now: +$190.35

Do you still play the place bet when the horse goes to 3-5. I just put it on the win because betting 10 to .50 doesnt seem good to me.
