Sorry I didn't' get to post a thing for Tuesday; a transformer blew close by and we were out of electricity for HOURS. Rarely happens and when it does the electricity goes back on within 10 mins. but not this time. No internet means no pps. and I didn't have time to cap anything Tues. morning.
Lucky or UNlucky
Just gotta share this...
LUCKY - nailed the 8th race tri, which paid something like $224. OF COURSE, I got half of that.
Now, get this -
After that 8th race did a good repair job on the bankaroo, I decided to play the 9th which consisted of a good size field of genuine Philadelphia DIRT BAGS. I played some exactas but it's the straight bets I made that is pretty interesting. I played 3 horses to win,only and one of them was the no. 10 hoss. Zacktas lost, but my no. 10, who was rated 3rd in my ratings, did win by a half length too. And what was the odds on that baby? How bout 45/1?
Now, I rarely play horses with those kinda odds (like maybe one per TWO months of wacin). And here's the Unbelievable part - to the best of my recollection, I'm pretty sure that I hit 5 of these BIG (40/1 or better) BALLONS to win over the past 3 or 4 YEARS and get this --->THIS WAS THE THIRD DAMN TIME that the bastages took down my winner on me of those 5. YEAH, 3 of my 5 bombers that won and were taken down .
Actually, not blaming anybody for taking this one down cause I saw it coming after watching the homestretch run live. Laura Carson was whipping the horse with her right hand in the stretch while crunching her challenger against the rail. IF she didn't do that, I'M sure she still woulda won the freakin wace, no doubt about that. :mj16:
But, THREE out of FIVE is flukin UNreal. This one really takes the cake.
