So it seems that there’s some money to be made in adultery, and not only by the Florida PD, the wronged woman, and those accepting checks for selling their stories. A quick run-down of Wednesday’s Tiger picks, with thanks to those who posted their own in the comments.

Brooklyn Backstretch Aqueduct picks

Race 2: Smokey Eyes: scratched

Race 3: Magic Tiger/Strategic Move/Come From Behind: You’d have needed to box it, but the Magic Tiger/Come From Behind/Strategic Move triple paid $48, the exacta $21.40, the win ticket $7.90.

Race 4: Siren’s Call: Won and paid $4.40; the double with Magic Tiger paid $16.40

Race 5: Embrace Change won and paid $3.50

Race 7: Bold Union over Yes, She’s a Lady. The latter scratched; the former won and paid $4.00.

Race 9: In the Spotlight: finished last.

Still, not bad, and perhaps part of a trend, if we consider the results of the Eliot Spitzer hunch bets of March 2008; of the nine horses picked in that post, six finished in the money: one finished third; three finished second; and two won, at prices of $26.80 and $23.40.

Now on to the picks left in the comments:

From Mr./Ms. Anonymous, Laurel picks:

Laurel 4th: Mylilsecret finished fourth

Laurel 5th: Faithful One/Pillow Pal exacta. Faithful One won and paid $9.80; Pillow Pal finished last.

Laurel 8th: Official Affair/Stone in Love. Stone in Love was third, Official Affair last.

Brock Sheridan’s Hollywood picks:

5th: Blame the Wine and Moma Rosa. Blame the Wine was third, Mama Rosa eighth.

And from Claire Novak:
