Philly Sat 2/18

Don't care too much for the card today which is why I only have 2 waces listed. Didn't go over the 10th yet.

6th wace: Coming up with the 1A and the 7, both favorites, fagetaboutit.

7th: Much more interesting.
Like exactas? ... then it's 6 top/bot with 1,4,5,9 and/or 4-9-10 BOXED. Usually boxing is NOT a good thing to do, but with odds like these hosses got.. it is a good thing to TRY.

Straight betting is your pleasure? Then it's no. 5 Win/Pl/Show@3x. Oh, morning line on this one is 12-1.

I just might do all 3, small bets in exotics (like 2 stinkin bucks), heavier on that no. 5 hoss, Abbeye. Something like 5/5/15 or more if he really looks good on the track

8th: This one, I believe, is even better. For now.. I'll just mention that I'd be shocked if the 6 and/or the 7 don't hit the zacta. Each is 5-1 M.L. BTW, 6 goes with 7 in the tries (Hiya doin, Hammy?). Going for the tri ain't my cup of tea, but IF that 7th pays off big, I'll take a shot with 6,7/1,6,7,8,10/1,6,7,8,10. ONE stinkin buck, OF COURSE.

So far, did great today.. by SKIPPING PLENTY OF WACES. Went a little overboard on that no. 5 in the 8th though.

I'm seeing the last race horses and I'll post a LOOKER if there is one. Maybe that will work??

2,3,5 look pretty good

1 and 7 are the handicapped picks.

Well, a 3-7 ($114) woulda worked out just great if that no. 7 woulda nailed the 8 for the place spot, he was gaining with every stride but just didn't have enough stretch left... . . turned out that staying away from Phlly today woulda worked out even better

Depending on what happens tomorrow, I'll have to think about ONLY playing hosses on Mon and Tues at Philly. Looks like it's gonna take some of the ole "Tuesday luck/magic" to start making it happen again. If that doesn't work - a semi-permanent vacation is in order.

Skipping races and keeping the bet amounts reasonable or even lesser goes a long way toward keeping your head above water.. but the water level is getting to be a little too muckin futch. :s1:

That nice, big money bag that I built up during the long run I had a month or 2 so ago is clearly showing signs of losing some weight and that's gotta stop one way or another.

Too many close calls lately but no CeeGars (BTW, what ever happened to Seegar?).
