Hammy, you can't sleep either?
Worrying about coming up with some cash for the Derby?
(Glad you're here so it's worth while for me to post something)
Let's see about gettin some EZ (?) Philly bucks to use for the big race coming up soon...
(you know the track)
2nd race: this is mostly a TRIAL, but I am gonna play it for real for this race today; not recommending anybody plays along. I've noticed that those PHILLY style exactas in races that I mark as "playable" are paying enough to box 4 horses in exactas. I use my top two rated horses along with 2 others that show angles that I believe are worthwhile. Box the FOUR of them in exactas. Here's the four for this race... 1,4,5,6.
Nobody is gonna like this part.. but a small win bet on no. 3 to WIN, only, on the side should cover the cost of the zacks if they don't hit. Punta is 9/2 and will prob. go off around those odds, so the side play doesn't have to be much. Let's see what happens.
4th race: I LUV the no. 7 hoss. Enough to wheel that one on top for more than 2 stinkin dollar tickets and on the bottom for stinkin 2 dollar tickets. Ain't gonna let the no. 8 beat me though; so that one (10-1) gets bet on the side.
5th race: I'll just write that no. 3 (3-1) and/or no. 5 (10-1) are ZACTA FACTAS. FOR ME, no. 6, Bullet Rain, has to be a side order. This one was a good one in the past, MUCH better than these. Terrible, terrible lately, but I cannot ignore this one at M.L. odds of 15-1.
8th race: NOT recommended, but for my record - I'm going to do something with the no. 5 hoss, Seychelles, in this race. I played this one ONLY 2 times last year and she won both times ($30+ win payoff the last time). She's coming off a vacation and who knows what she'll be up to today. BEWARE - her speed ratings are WELL BELOW the others in this race and her trainer and jockey don't help matters either. Highly likely this race may just be a tuneup for her against the stiff competition but there's no way I wanna see her win today's race without me.
9th race: it's playable, but I'll have to see where I stand at this point before playing anything. The "trial" nos. (like the 2nd race) would be .... 3,4,5,6 for this race. IF I play this race, I'd like to be able to throw out one of those nos. based on what I see in the prerace (paddock/post parade) and just box the remaining 3.
G.L. and do reply, Hammy if you see this cause I ain't posting anything without you around cause I KNOW you're interested in Philly wacin
edited: I just checked my account and the total amount for the no. 7 exactas was only $21 ($2 top and $1 bottom). Hell, that's even better.
