Dear DTL Crew, A DTL Crew member gave us Beau Cheval. We listened, pivoted, and caught the roughly 11-1 winner and an exacta worth about $300 in Belmont’s last race. Mark immediately started preparing his acceptance speech. We reminded him the tip came from the chat. That is why we do live shows. The crew brings an opinion, we discuss it, and we can change the play while it still matters. Full credit to the member who put Beau Cheval on our radar. Mark’s contribution was being close enough to the microphone to claim involvement.

Reading the subject line and asking Mark what to bet is not a research strategy. It is how you become part of tomorrow’s joke. CIARAN TAKES OVER. FRANK CLOCKS OUT.Ciaran has Gulfstream’s late Pick 3 and Belmont’s low-takeout Pick 5 today. Frank is off. Mark asked whether that improves his strike rate. Frank asked whether Mark could take the rest of the month. Your free preview includes Ciaran’s Gulfstream Race 7 opinion and Race IQ’s first four Belmont races. The shaded sections show what’s inside today’s Premier edition: the remaining legs, complete tickets and the cheaper Belmont option. FREE LOOK: CIARAN’S GULFSTREAM RACE 7Selections: 2, 1, 7, 3. This opens the late Pick 3 covering Races 7–9. #1 Action Delight — 5-1: Ciaran likes the improvement and the last-out win with Diego. Diego leaving #2 to ride #1 is a key part of the case. #2 Roger Tat Dana — 2-1: The back class makes him a use, but the drop from graded-stakes company earlier this year to a $10,000 claiming tag gives Ciaran reason to look for alternatives. #7 Teofimo — 7-2: Drops in class, but one win from nine starts and previous struggles at this level leave questions. #3 completes Ciaran’s first-leg coverage. Ciaran has four answers in the opener. Mark has one question: “Can I change mine after they finish?” Prices are morning lines. Check scratches, surface changes and live odds before playing.

The shaded boxes contain more useful information than Mark’s last three post-race explanations. Premier members get the actual selections, which is generally more helpful. RACE IQ: SATURDAY’S HONEST REPORT CARDGulfstream: 6 of 10 winners in the original top three. Churchill: 4 of 10. Combined: 10 of 20 — 50%. Original top choices won 5 of 17 starts with an official result. Gulfstream’s Jades Jay ($17.20) was Race IQ’s second choice, and runner-up Dime Papi ranked third. Their exacta paid $46.20 for $1. The rankings identified both horses; that does not mean a ticket was automatically played. The flat $2 win-bet test lost money: $34 wagered, $22.76 returned, an $11.24 loss (−33.1%). Ciaran’s and Frank’s published Gulfstream Pick 3 tickets also missed. We report the misses along with the hits. Mark suggested deleting the accounting section. His request has been denied. Churchill Race 2 was declared no contest and is excluded. Three scratched Churchill top choices are excluded from the win-bet totals. Original rankings are kept without promoting replacements or revising them after surface changes. Top-three coverage is not ticket profit. SANTA ANITA NEXT WEEKSanta Anita returns next week, along with our regular Double Trouble Live shows. We’ll update show times once entries are set. Watch the website and subscribe to the channel. Yesterday’s crew contribution was a good reminder of why the live conversation matters. Mark’s Insight: “The smartest people on our show are watching it. Yesterday, one of them sent us an 11-1 receipt.” Mark, Frank & Ciaran Double Trouble Live P.S. ALWAYS CHECK THE WEBSITE for Frank’s matrix, Ciaran’s notes, Race IQ and updates available with your membership. If you ask Mark where they are, he’ll tell you to ask Frank. Frank is off. |
