A Great Monmouth Park Weekend

Some crazy times at the Shore's Greatest Stretch this weekend. As noted by a LATG reader, there were more people at Monmouth Park Saturday (Monmouth Park Attendance: 15210) then Belmont all weekend long (6767 + 7667) and even more than Belmont had on Rachel day (13,352) The average exacta payoff on Saturday was $162. It seemed like every field was full and well matched with favorites at 5/2 and sometimes greater. Kelly Breen has something with Dinner with D C. I was standing in the paddock when Breen was talking to jockey Jose Velez. I won't use quotes, but he said Don't shut her down if she's winning by big lengths, if she can win by 10 you win by 11, our next race will be for $500k. I looked at my friend and we both saw Dinner with D C at 4-1, I couldn't put enough money on her, she went off at 2-1 and won by 8 easy. Velez didn't quit on her that's for sure. I liked Lauro and Spice Route in the UN. I put win money on both and bet a Tri using Presious Passion in 2nd and 3rd. This is what kills me! Why didn't I take that win money and put it on PP OVER Lauro and Spice Route cause I already had it covered had they won. Cost myself about $200 dollars on that one. Also Monmouth Park has a new website. I challenge you to find a track with a better one.
