Funny Moon- $17.20...$8.50...$6.70

Livin Lovin (12.7) had every chance to take home the trophy but could not last the 1 1/4 miles. Alan Garcia did all he could aboard the winner, Funny Moon to prevent her from the Cross Island Parkway and kept her on the main track. Great ride, very nice filly.

RESULTS; Del Mar Oceanside Stakes

Del Mar Race 8 7/22 1 mile 3-year-olds
(Horse; Pre-race System #)

Afleet Eagle- 10.5 (HIGHEST SYSTEM #)
Mark S the Cooler- 6.5
Rendezvous- 6.7
Her Mozzart- 9 (2ND HIGHEST SYSTEM #)

We were tickled to see Afleet Eagle go off at 6-1 and pay a juicy $14.60. His 10.5 System number towered over the field. With all AE horses scratching, it was apparent Afleet Eagle was the horse to beat, to us at least, maybe not the public.

Meteore (6.8 System number) went off as the betting favorite. He was 6 lengths back of the winner.


Scratches: Position A, Nashoba Express, Dream Now, Rainbow Goose and Gretsky.

RESULTS; Hollywood Gold Cup Saturday 7/11

Gold Cup; Hollywood Park Race 8
(Horse; Pre-race System #)

Rail Trip- 15.3 (Fourth Highest #)
Tres Borrachos- 7
Life Is Sweet- 17.3 (Highest #)

Rail Trip got a great ride. Definitely good enough to win this, moved up a ton with the way the race came out. On paper, he was the lone speed, Tres Borrachos' connections acknowledged the lack of speed and improvised. They grabbed second in a race with a crafty strategy.

I thought Garrett Gomez had Life Is Sweet way to far back, running against boys in a slow race. The filly closed nicely but had way to much to do.

RESULTS; July 4 Belmont- The Suburban

Belmont dirt, 1 1/4 miles 3&up
(Horse; Pre-race System #)

Dry Martini- 13.5 (4th highest #)
Asiatic Boy- 16.1 (2nd highest #)
Rising Moon- 12.9
Finallymadeit- 14.8 (3rd highest #)

Dry Martini ($23.60) was the one to get up as high system number, It's A Bird (18) was washed-up and back peddling. That performance will make you question his drug-questioned past. In New York that stuff doesn't fly. Shaky.

The second, third and fourth high numbers all finished in the top four as the winner earned a high system number and should have jumped off the page at 11-1. Asiatic Boy (16.1) runs to his projected number again but continues on as a bridesmaid. Finallymadeit (14.8) also ran up to his number as he completed the $5,313 superfecta at 34-1.
