Problems, problems, problems... If I could keep my picks from having problems two weeks in a row, I might be able to put a little distance between DJ and myself. But I guess as the old saying goes, "if a hoppy toad had wings, he would not bust his rump a hoppin". Anyway, let's take a look at Saturday night.
In the first grouping, it's basically been the 99 and then everyone else on these types of tracks. But I am looking toward the Hendrick camp to make a good showing this week. The 48 and the 24 run well here, and it is getting time for those two to make a move. I like the 11 and the 20 as well. And I also think the 17 gets back on track with a good finish here this weekend.
In the second group, the 88 will be on a mission this weekend. So look out for him. The 8 will run well again this week, and you might as well use his starts when you get a track to his liking. The 12 should be alright, but for some dark horses, keep an eye on the 43 and the 38. You could get some quality points out of those two this weekend.
In the final group, I would probably stick with the 83, the15, or the 22 here. The 44 has a good shot at finishing well, and the 66 should have a good finish.
Hope everyone has an enjoyable time this weekend, and good luck to all of you.
