John Greenhaw broke well from the gate
picks Oaklawn Park Race 7 Thursday
MC $15k 3yo 5 1/2 f
Alot of 3yo's dropping, and some rising in class, with the ml fav having never hit the board in three starts? I smell a longshot!

#2 ODD MAN OUT, 8-1
Good trainer Allen Milligan told my buddy that this one is LIVE today in this spot. Speed and fade in last, and the only one to come out of that race jumped up in class and won. Big jock switch to Ocampo, who will no doubt be employing much encouragement down the stretch!

#3 JENNY'S TOUCH, 2-1
Speed and fade in last for Bret Calhoun. The drop from $30k to $15k could make the difference as this one has very good early speed. However, has not hit the board in three starts?

#10 MR SLATER HANDS, 5/2
Has shown speed in all three races. Drops way down in class and is a very logical play, but outside post hurts his chances.


THE PLAY:

WPS # 2
ex & tri bos 2/3/10

GOOD LUCK TO ALL!

Husker:

Great plan and a great way to donate and have fun doing so! I agree that the # 3 will be tough on the drop.

Am going to be trackside Friday and Saturday. I already told KING to give me a call. One of our old friends, DASH GOFF, owned NODOUBLE, and OP is having the NODOUBLE STAKES on Sat. Our box is in the upper terrace as far south as you can go to the last ramp before you get to the simulcast seating area and the heads. Go up the ramp and turn left on the first row where the first box says Bernhard Mayer and we are usually about 5 or six boxes down. Come by!. Just yell out GREENHAW and someone will tell you who I am or that I am down below watching a simulcast race or getting a drink. Same goes for King!

Sorry to hear you won't be trackside. Maybe we'll meet in Ky next month as my 3yo colt is eyeing a comeback race in mid-April at Keeneland with the outcome depending on if we send him forward in the American Turf Classic GII on Oaks day at Churchill Downs!

I met Bob McNair around ten years ago or so when he was wintering at the Aiken, South Carolina training Center and sharing the facilities with Dogwood Stables. For someone that rich, he sure was a hell of a nice guy and he certainly loved his horses!

If I run into any Darley, Goldolfin Sheiks I will inform them of your recent foals and send them your way next Spring
