First ya gotta read,"What's been goin one around here". 
Since my last post, I watched THREE damn trifectas just fall through my finger tips and I'm getting really pissed about it... just outrageous. Either my show spot horse beats my Place horse by a whisker or my Show horse gets clipped at the freakin wire by a freakin spider thread. FLUCK!. EVERY damn one of those trifectas paid $300 +/- $50.
Best bets? I think I posted two Best Bets a week or so ago and spread $60 across on each.. PLUS exotics with the BB in them. One finished 4th (had 3rd locked up for most of the stretch too). The other one may still be running for all I know.
NOW, this past Sat. there was a hoss I absolutely LUVED, Kiss My Daddy, (6th race) and liked that one even better than the two previous Bestest Bet nags I lost with. Did I plaster some greenbacks across on that one... .OH NO! Bastage had the race won and actually edged ahead of the favorite in deep stretch. Fav. nipped him at the wire. Place and show prices on my BB were VERY nice. I woulda luved a nice fat across the board play on that one. I did ok cause there was no. way I was gonna let that one hit the zacta without me and caught the exacta ($88 and change for $2, even with the favorite on top) with multiple tickets, but I sure wish I woulda laid some greenies just on that one across which woulda been a more efficient bet.
Get this - in that race, I played 4 (that was "Daddy") top/bot w. 1,8. AND, 4 top/bot with all the others for 2 dollars. Look up the trifecta payoff for that 6th race on Sat. and you'll know what I'm talking about. :banghead:
Kept my head above water the past few racing days, but the crap that went on above really sucked.
OK, lets get down to what really matters asfaras posting goes, the PLICKS for today...
2nd race: playable race, but I tried and tried and couldn't come up with a dang thang.
4th race: 5,8 top/bot 3,7 ($4 this way -> and $2 going <- this way). Get it? Side play is a 5<->8.
7th race: Here's where I'm at with this one - CLEARLY top rated horse is no. 6. it's going for 4 wins in a row, hasn't raced for 50 days, field sizes in those races he won were 4,6,6 respectively. I'll let that one win without me. Just don't care for the 2nd highest rated hoss either, who happens to be 2nd choice (fav.). Now, that leaves me with FOUR that I believe MAY be able to pull it off in this race and every one is deel-lish-ous odds. Thems are the 4,5,9,11(A.E.). I'm hoping for some scratches and maybe get that no. down to 2 horses; then I'll really be interested in this wace.
9th: trifectas 2/1,3,5,6/1,3,5,6 also 2 top/bot 6,7 zacta with bigger than 2 stinkin dollar tickets. Gonna hit the gawd Dang trifecta yet.
Apparently, I'm posting for only 2 or MAYBE 3 folks? Don't know or care about the 200+ others that I don't have a clue what thems are looking for. Soo.. I think I'll just start posting on Tue$ which is usually my lucky day at Philly. IF I do see something REALLY worthwhile, I'll TRY to post it.
Back to them college footsbawlers puzzles for now.
