3 longshots

Friday night it’s Numismatic in the 12th race at Saratoga Harness from the 7 post. He’s 10-1 Morning Line after his last place finish two weeks ago and with his outside post in this race.

Saturday sees It’s Truly Ahvee at Aqueduct running in a 6 furlong Maiden Special Weight also from the 7 post with Irad Ortiz, Jr. the jockey. He hasn’t raced in 18 months, so he’s the longest shot in the race at 12-1 Morning Line. This is Rhoda’s baby. She’s always loved his long legs and you can’t argue that he looked terrific, when we saw him a few months ago. Hope he looks as good on Saturday but, of course, no matter what he looks like, we hope he’ll run well.

MarvelThisBliss, our pacer, who put some money in the bank with his 2nd place finish two weeks ago, comes from the 5th post and is 8-1 Morning Line. Let’s hope we surprise them all again!

My grandson, is even money to lose a little weight on Monday morning when he becomes an official member of the tribe. We’ll love him, no matter what.

Have a lovely weekend,

A.
