Jim Price got off to a great start when he hit last Sunday’s daily double for $111.20.

My mission during Jim’s one-week absence is to keep the bankroll above the starting mark of $2,000. The key word for this old conservative handicapper is just that conservative.

Here are today’s selections:

FIRST: $2 daily double of RAGS MALONE in the first race with EYE OPENER in the second.

FIFTH: $5 win, $5 place on MIDNITE CRUISER.

SIXTH: $5 win, $5 place on FUNNYMONEY HABIT.

SEVENTH: $4 exacta box of DOLLYS GONE WILD and SHE’S DUN GONE TOO.

EIGHTH: $5 win on SURF TIDE.

Original Bankroll: $2,000.

Saturday: Lost $32.

Sunday: Won $119.20.

Present Bankroll: $2,087.20.
