Last week at Santa Anita Rich had 9 listed winners, not all were top choices, but the early Pick 5 paid $1,127 and he received a couple e-mails from readers who cashed in off of his selections. We have a big Saturday at Gulfstream and Fair Grounds, but we are just going to pick one major race at each.
