Only members of the Facebook group Thoroughbred Racing in New York (TRNY) get the secret, by-Email-only Quickiecap on racedays. (Joining is FREE.) When I’m unavailable, the eloquent Brooklyn Backstretch takes the reins. If there’s ever anything particularly juicy in a Quickiecap, or merely an atomic pun I just dropped on our members, I will of course repeat that same Quickiecap in The Daily Me. Here’s today’s Quickiecap—Quickiecap Quickiecap Quickiecap!

Charity Flight (5th, 24-1), by Western Expression, first-time grass…

Your humble Creator, hip to the versatility of Western Expressions—grass, dirt, slop, short, long—used Charity Flight in P3s and P4s and you know how that story ended nobody cares next.

Naughty New Yorker broke a step slowly, chased outside, shot blanks. I love this horse—might need a break. R Clear Victory grumble ($9) decided to stay today grumble, one of Elliott’s three.

Rajeeeeeeev (stadium chorus) nearly lost the irons on the first turn with Slipstone (7th, $22.60), coolly recovered, wore down a weak bunch.

Think of Dark Days as Casual Mondays and Outta Town Tuesdays—you can talk about anything anywhere without compunction. More important, remember that Wednesdays are Sundays at Carvel (Fudgie the Whale).

Who will be the third TRNY member of the week????????????

Here’s the club.
