i did not like LAL. it was not a crash and burn though because of the double from the black eyed susan, where i did use him. i expected him to run the way super saver did. looking at lucky deserves my compliments because i did not like him yesterday.

I could list so many here but I'd have to say Yawanna Twist. I mean sorry but I was floored. First Dude was a surprise but this guy? I'd have picked him to be last.

Who wants to go next?

I used Yawanna Twist, LAL, and First Dude.....did not use Jackson Bend. But SS not finishing in the money is what crushed me. I have done forgot about it, and am moving on to whats on tap for today.:)

I was wrong about all of the turf winners, and I usually do better on those.

I was wrong thinking that Pletcher would use his edge this weekend.

Thought Scarface would make that middle move, n' tire to 2nd-4th.

jackson bend cost me thousands, I keyed Lookin At Lucky and First Dude only in trifectas and did not play Jackson Bend at all and so for making what I thought was a great longshot key of First Dude I got nothing!!

Jackson Bend. I'll probably depart for that heavenly place with that SOB's name on my lips.

I was completely wrong about Pleasant Prince, Super Saver and Lookin at Lucky :mad:

right about First Dude but only managed to cash a Place and Show bet on him. :mad:

I had a trifecta with Stupid Saver keyed 1st and First Dude keyed 2nd
I would have hit the Superfecta and Super High 5 if Pleasant Prince would have run 4th or 5th.

convinced I will never get my money back on Pleasant Prince :mad:

Super Saver, Schoolyard Dreams, and First Dude.

I lost $50 wagering on the Preakness. My husband won $273 off a $34 wager. He had the exacta and across the board bets on both L@L and First Dude.

I was wrong about wagering yesterday....It's been a while since my opinion was so bad. I had the BES/preak double a few times which cut my Saturday losses in half.

As gate opened, I told my racetrack friend of 34 years that if Lookin at Lucky beats me, he beats me. He did. I had First Dude bet to win & place. Place bet was my real "Super Saver" yesterday.

Seems like every other horse was just spinning their wheels, except Ice Box who in my opinion should of won the race. He also won his only stakes victory over the same surface months back(horse for the course). Now we have a track where the surface will be a 180 from what he just ran on and a fast track that he has yet to win on this year. The horse is a gamer and has only been out of the money once in seven starts but the talk of him winning "by daylight" and in a "walkover" like most people on here are saying is nonsense. Nice horse but not a world beater by far and will be exposed in this race."
EXPOSED!!!!

"The best bet is Jackson Bend at +105(prop bet against Dublin)" Easy Money

"LAL is by far the most talented horse in the race and it finally comes together for him." Most Talented By Far

"LAL wins by daylight!!!" Well this might be the only thing I was wrong about but not off that far lol

"Although I never like Cali horses coming east and racing on dirt, I believe after his race in the derby and almost being put over the rail, not get totally discouraged and making a run at the end, Looking at Lucky will trump this field with a decent post and finally a clean race."

Not tryin to be a wise guy but I was right on the money and hitting the Triple made my day yesterday!!

^^^^ Actual tri bet; 4,7,9

Actual tri bet 7/2-5-6-8-10-11 $30 - collect $1385.50 Thanks

I won 100,000.

Thanks.

Anyone else?

I think I'm ready to accept that Aikenite is better around one turn.

No turns....no turns.

..oh fer gosh sakes, Steve.......I thought it fairly harmless,but fun!....

I can't help it some people go into extreme distress over a little comment.

I didn't have First Dude anywhere.
