Trey Fecta
We start the final weekend with what's left of our ego and our bankroll -- $244 -- from the original $500.
In the first, Trey likes Irish Kiot for the first half of the Daily Double, and $5 across the board.
For the second, North Fork completes the DD, and box North Fork, Kash In My Wranglers and Peggy Again for a trifecta.
Hey Boo gets $5 across the board in the third.
For the Kentucky Derby, we're boxing a $2 trifecta on Line of David, Conveyance and Sidney's Candy.
An exacta box of Mysteriously Fast and Amen Brother Ben is the call for the fourth; try a $6 quinella on Slews Aneata and Skimmed.
We're betting $5 across the board on I Pods Go Bad in the sixth.
Take Mr. Liberty Bells for the first half of the Late Double in the seventh, then box a trifecta with it and I C a Charm and Billy Stark.
Pick Moments in May for the second half of the Late Double, and $5 across the board on it.
