Brooklyn/Belmont double

I just got the first half with Calidoscopio. Now I need Palace Malice to win tomorrow. ($20 play). Unbelievable run by this ten-year-old, coming from at least 20 lengths back to get the win.

Hi Bill,
He ran a great race....I think he's only the 2nd horse to win a GR I at Belmont at ten years of age. That ticket will be worth more than an ounce of gold:>) Good Luck, TJ

The ticket is worth an ounce of something allright - Palace Malice Bill old age must be catching up with you.
I think its time TJ kept you a seat on that Bingo bus of his....

Hi Dub
Yes, old age is catching up with me (as it will with you one day). All that betting horses is, is an opinion, and you're certainly entitled to yours. I respect your opinion as much as anyone, and I wish you the best of luck with your wagers. I'm having cataract surgery on Monday, so I will be off for awhile.
Good luck to all in the Belmont.

Ah that explains your pick then, only joking.
Good luck with the surgery and I wish you a speedy recovery.
One day we will all end up on TJ's bus to Bingo.

Hi Bill,
Hope all goes well with the cataract surgery....I'm sure it will. Good luck with that double too, I'm rooting for you on both counts:>) TJ

Hi Dub,
No bus, I drive my Maserati Quattroporte GTS to bingo, I get there faster and have plenty room for extra passengers:>) TJ

Thanks Joltman. Pretty routine surgery. I expect everything will go well. I have a great doctor doing the hard work.

Just got home from surgery, Everything went well. I'm trying to type this using one eye, so my depth perception sucks.
