$154K Stronach 5 Carryover!

Mar 19, 2021

What a wild week for sports fans! I've been getting up early and watching Cheltenham each morning. The racing has been phenomenal. My wagering, after a solid day one, has been the opposite of that. Main takeaway: I knew Rachael Blackmore was good, but she is incredibly special. So great at timing and tactics and getting the best from her mounts. USA fans will really appreciate her ability to use her charges' speed to her advantage. Speed is a weapon, even in long races with obstacles!

We've got this Stronach 5 carryover this afternoon, I'm psyched for that. Great racing tomorrow (see below). A basketball tourney of some import is apparently taking place somewhere. I'm sure I'll have a few bets on that. Tomorrow is an important fantasy baseball draft of mine so I've been studying that form as well.

But here's the key event for us: the Pear Bear is participating in a virtual Taekwondo tournament this weekend. As such, the bunker has been turned upside down. I've got exercise mats everywhere, the camera and lights are pointing sternward instead of aftward and my little white belt is ready to rep her dojo. Good stuff!

Happy birthday to Brad Anderson, a BCBC champ and friend, who achieves a round number on Monday. Godspeed to him and all of you.
