Oakland Athletics vs. Colorado Rockies (MLB) - 9:10 PM EDT Premium Pick
Pick: Point Spread: 1.5/-135 Colorado Rockies Rating: 8* Belmont Big Payout Winning Exotics/Bonus MLB Runliner Belmont TRIPLE WINS On Exotics-----MLB LOSS
This Oakland A's team has been lucky thus far going 11-7 in 1-run games & have gone a deceiving 15-8 versus southpaws despite hitting .235 versus them. On the flip side, Colorado's 23-35 record isn't the norm here. The Silver Bullets have gone a solid 8-6 versus LHP & should be even better considering they pound them with a collective .270 batting average. It the strongly feels like a bargain as we take the COLORADO ROCKIES + 1 1/2 runs (who are 5-1 SU versus the AL thus far)! Here's the Belmont Stakes picks in take-it-to-the-window fashion (but stay within your bank roll always). $20 EXACTA on 2 with 3 & 4 $10 EXACTA on 3 with 2 & 4 $15 EXACTA on 4 with 2 & 3 $10 EXACTA on 2 with 1,5,6,7,8 $10 TRIFECTA on 2 with 3,4 with 3,4,6,7 $5 TRIFECTA on 3,4 with 2 with 3,4,6,7 $2 SUPERFECTA on 2 with 3,4,6,7 with 3,4,6,7 with 3,4,6,7 $2 SUPERFECTA on 3,4 with 2 with 3,4,6,7 with 3,4,6,7 $2 TRIFECTA STRAIGHTS on 6-2-3-----6-2-4-----6-3-2-----6-3-4-----6-4-3-----6-4-2 $2 SUPERFECTA STRAIGHTS on 2-4-3-6-----4-2-3-6-----4-3-2-6-----4-6-3-2-----4-6-2-3-----2-6-4-3 Insurance Bet $20 to win on #6 KNOWN AGENDA (skipped the Preakness & should be fresh) who started in the unlucky 17th hole in the Kentucky Derby. After struggling to find room inside, he still improved to 9th. For insurance, grab #6 for the Run For The Carnations @ the BIG SANDY!
NOTES: While bases go ice cold, I set a personal best hitting all 3 big-payout exotics played for the last leg of the Triple Crown @ the Belmont Stakes. #2 (Gray Colt) Essential Quality (Luis Saez riding) did as I expected with staying close (3rd place by 1/2 length @ the mile) before taking the lead @ 1 1/4 for good. #4 Hot Rod Charlie jetted out to the lead & showed the way til' the last 1/4 before losing by a little over 1 length. #3 Rombauer (we had him winning the Preakness) decided to go to the inside early before settling in the middle 5 paths over. He wound up knocking heads & challenging #4 HRC before settling for 3rd. #6 Known Agenda brushed with #7 Rock Your World but rallied to 5th @ the mile before clearly grabbing 4th by close to 2 lengths. It was a SWEEP of the exotics as the $20 Exacta, $10 Trifecta & 2- $2 Superfectas (1 wheel & 1 straight) came in for a personal record-breaking day. Be back next season as I go for the Triple Crown sweep that I've just missed hitting 2 of 3 the last 2 seasons. Thanks to all my faithful subscribers who'll I'll see for another NFL season hitting @ a high-percentage!
