Finished Sunday 3-1-1, so I’m 10-4-1 over the last three weeks. For the season, 16-12-2 on the contest lines, or +280 for the 100 unit player. Giddy up.

From the “rather be lucky than good” – my listing of the lines was all screwed up this week. The Jets were actually laying 2.5 and not getting it. I lived with the line and cashed anyway. We pushed with Arizona, but they are not THAT bad with Rosen at the helm. Maybe a chance to roll a few weeks with them and Buffalo while the perception lingers.

The Jaguars were THAT bad, as was the lean with the Browns.

To date, I’m pleased with the results, clicking along at 57.1 percent. While that number wouldn’t win the contest, we’re not drawing dead for the last 10 weeks. I’ll try to update the virtual standings before next weekend.

I know I haven’t talked horses for a while, but I have had a watch on Santa Monica since I saw her schooling in the paddock at Saratoga. She didn’t look like she loved the rail trip, and lacked room at times in running a somewhat level third in the E.P. Taylor at Woodbine this weekend. I think Sheika Reika may be a real good one, so I will keep an eye on both moving forward. On a secondary note, I’m tossing Proctor’s Ledge from this point forward. Jose Ortiz’s horrific ride at Saratoga seems to have taken something out of her, and I can’t find any more excuses after three straight terrible results.

For those of you who haven’t been to Woodbine, I have Toronto as a great weekend trip. It’s been a while since I have been there, but the track has the casino, the lakefront area is great, you have all the pro sports to catch a game, and you can grab a Cuban cigar while you’re there. Check it out sometime.

Despite my non-posts on the horse front – I have been playing little, but tracking the preps for the BC, I will have a full Breeders Cup preview in a couple of weeks.

Have a great week, and take the wife out to dinner if you’ve been playing along in football.
