As Matt said earlier it was all right in front of us in the tickets played but somehow in the flow of the day, it became less important and thus elusive......too bad it was very hittable if there is such a word.

It's always easy to say " I could have hit this " when you didn't even try to put it together. To be honest, it would have taken a real investment on my part. Assuming one ticket, I would have had to have used three at Laurel, a minimum of three at Gulfstream, probably two in the 10th at Gulf, three in the SA 4th and as many as five in the 5th. So 3 x 3 x 3 x 2 x 5 is a $540 play. Well, frankly, even splitting it I wouldn't have put that in. Now, with multiple tickets perhaps it would have been less, but the Sa 4th winner would not have been an A which means somehow the SA 5th winner would have had to have been at least a B and I'm not sure that would have happened....at least for me. Thus, the lessen is, especially in complicated bets, saying " I could have hit that " is simply BS as having the winners and getting them all on the same ticket are two very different things.....at least depending on bankroll or investment.
