Good Racing Luck

Gus- The first pick 3 looks like you skipped a race- they are your selections from races 3,5 and 6. just in case anyone was just jotting down your selections. Good luck today. Thx for posting.

Jenroypa, Thanks for the heads up and good luck today as well.

Gus,

Good luck, I'm sure you've got a bunch of winners here. Glad to see that someone else likes Drosselmeyer, I'm real glad that he got a new rider after the last couple of trips. I'm adding Stay Put as well, I've just got a feeling about this horse that he will be in the mix in the end.

Regards,

Chuck

And the 5th at Belmont is a fine example of Kent D giving up or not knowing where the race is, at least in my opinion. Tough beat......

DROSSELMEYER IS GOING TO BE CUT LOOSE, YOU WERE WARNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!


Good luck,

Chuck

Again i will say it, very good Mr. Chicago.

Nice work once again Gus :tro::$:

atta boy gus "MR DOUBLE", big pick 4 to take home here, good luck

Nice hit Gus!

We'll be rooting for you to bring home the pick 4!

Chuck

Very nice job on the double and getting 3 of 4 in the BEL pick 4 is an accomplishment in itself. Great work Gus.

congrats gus!!

Thanks everyone, it was nice to see Drosselmeyer finally put it together.

Steve says I'm good with the two day wagers and I'm glad I was able to come through again today. Do I really have to wait for day one of the Breeders Cup for the next two day wager?

It was a fun triple crown series, now if I can only get my voice back after screaming at the TV (Drosselmeyer).

Congrats Gus, Very nice job.

Great job!!

Congrats, and thanks as always Gus.

Outstanding:tro::$:

Great work Gus... It's uncanny. Honestly... Uncanny. Am sorry the Double wasn't more publicized so people could take advantage of your super call.

It wasn't that you got it right in the Belmont Bogey, but how adamant you were that he would win. I don't think I have ever heard you so certain about a play. I was just too dumb to pay attention to your vibe which was right on the money. What a wonderful insight Gus.....great job!!

Thanks and I appreciate the kind words.

Let me join the littany of well wishers, I really need to take some of your advice more often. Specifically, not heeding Drosselmeyer cost me this pk4 as I was alive to the last, and back last summer the Ima Root beer horse at AP, cost me all total about 45K!!!!!!!! Again Gus, nice job!:tro:

Thanks Dagolfer, great job being alive to the last leg. It's only a matter of time before you complete the big ticket. You have to be in position and it seems that you've been there a few times.

I firmly believe this is true, I was extremely nervous staring down the barrell of the 24K payoff, but Icebox let me down. What a frustrating day for me, I had a whole lot of good plays but didnt make much money.

Great work Gus - thanks for the Drosselmeyer pick !!!

Thanks for the confirmation on Drosselmeyer Gus. It was nice to see that someone agreed with me. My best Belmont ever. Almost made up for all the dumb crap I've done in past Belmonts like playing Medaglia D'Oro over Sarava without boxing them or only having a single $2 win ticket on Commendable. $988 score yesterday and the Belmont was the only race I played.

Thanks Steve,

Thanks Cal, and here I thought I was the only one that played Medaglia D'Oro over Sarava and didn't reverse it.

Thankfully, have learned to do lots of "reserving." I would have been ok, if any one of the top 3 had won it. Less ok if Fly Down had won because I had no tri or super on him. Originally intended to put him on top in a super, but changed to Ice Box at the last moment. Almost drank the kool-aid on that one!!!

I was able to reverse the reserve.

Being able to pick Drosselmeyer is quite an accomplishment. I think you have earned the respect that will last a lifetime with a number of us. Looking forward to seeing your next two-day wager.
