VIC CANGIALOSI

TODAY’S PLAY: Have not cashed in a while. Let’s try $10 to win on My Sunshine Gal in the opener. Then $20 doubles of Hessonite in the sixth with the made for each other team of Shakeira and Wholelottashakin in the seventh. Total bet: $50.

YESTERDAY’S RESULTS: Whos sinking faster? The Mets or the SS Cangialosi? When you can’t get 2/5 St Johns River home you have a problem. Flying Pegasus was an always welcome scratch. Lost: $40.
