Haskell, AR

There were three different winners of the Triple Crown races and the four Grade I preps leading up to the GI Kentucky Derby were won by still four other horses. That means that as the second half of the 3-year-old season starts in earnest with the July 20 GI Haskell Stakes at Monmouth, the race for the 3-year-old championship is as wide open as possible.

Late Pick 5 — $0 other handicapping here!. RACE 1: STARTER OPTIONAL CLAIMING $30,000, 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, 5 1/2 FURLONGS (GRASS) This race is a rematch of the top two finishers at this condition on June 8. #1 Doctor Jeff (7-5) rated off the pace, took the front without much drama, and outkicked #2 Mid Day Image (3-1) to the wire, while that rival held second. Mid Day Image is in improving form and might take another step forward third off the layoff, but Doctor Jeff’s mid-pack punch and affinity for this track (2-for-3 lifetime on it) should be enough as long as he gets the jump on Mid Day Image early. #7 By the Sey Shore (6-1) was fifth in that June 8 race, which marked his first trip to the track since November. He ran a subpar figure first off the bench last June (even though he still managed to win), then improved seven brisnet points at next asking. Improvement like that here likely means victory.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.
