All winners yesterday were on either A or B list including 5 Best Bet winners from the Aqueduct Selections. Meanwhile "No Chalk" play Magnificent Chrome finished second at 11-1. Unfortunately, 3 winners were favorites, but we beat the chalk in Race 2 with Untreatable and race 3 with Gambling Cat. In addition, race 7 Skims (GB) and race 10 Control Function were 4-1 on Morning line.
The day started with a Skinny Pick 5 ticket that did not include Clement's Messidor (IRE) in the 5th.
Later, finished the card with a 3 dollar Skinny Pick 3 Ticket that returned $60.00.
