Who is ready to gamble.....4-15-07
 

Well I am for a short-time period today. Lets see if we can get lucky on tax day.

Keeneland - race #1 : "5"

We are going to focus on River, Keeneland and Tampa (to an extent).

Tampa Race 1

$20 exacta box
1-5-10-11

You have read my mind. I love Pitts and I think this horse has a huge shot here. The odds are dropping a tad. The 10 horse has burned tons of my money in the past, but alas I am going to wager her again. The one I am considering is the 7 horse.

Oh cashed a ticket but lost some money. But I like to try to get into a groove with my capping. I dont mind this one bit. I believe the exacta will pay around $21.60.

Look at the Place Pick 9 at Hawthorne, about a 20k carryover and you can play it for a $1 ticket

Scavs, how does that Place Pick 9 work? I have never played it before.

Your selections have to run first OR SECOND, and you advance.....

And i think if you get both horses (1st and 2nd) your ticket turns into double..So you could end up hitting like 8 times if you select the 1st and 2nd horses 4 times within those 8 race, definitely worthwhile to play today IMO. The first two races are gimme chalks, after that it gets a little wide open.....Worth a $100 play

1: 4
2: 7
3: 1
4: 4
5: 4,5,6
6: 8,11
7: 2,5
8: 2,8,9
9: 1,5

1x1x1x1x3x2x2x3x2

$72 per $1

(This was alot harder to structure then I thought)

Tampa Race 2

$20 exacta box

2-5-6-10

Hmmm....seems interesting. And it is for $1 which I like. I am not going to wager it but I will put a ticket together to see how I do.

That is what I did, it is alot harder then you think when starting, it is in multiples of 9 and not 6 like a pick six, so I orginally had like a $1200 ticket :)

I am not a huge fan of this ticket but going to see if I can get some people to go together and play it

Well shucky darn. Get them next time.

Keeneland Race 1

I love the 3 and 5 horse.

$20 exacta box

3-5-6-8

$1 pick 3 wheel
Leg A - 3-5-6-8
Leg B - 2-3-4-5-7-11
Leg C - 1-2-3-5-9

Sort of surprised to see Calvin gun to the lead like he did. I would figure he would know better. Congrats to see Kent doing OK.

Tampa Race 3

$10 exacta wheel

1-3-4-7-9-10
with
1-3-4

Well drats...get them next time.

Keeneland Race 2

$1 tri box

2-3-9-11-12

Tamps Race 4

I need to hit one here.

$20 exacta wheel

1-4-11
with
2-3-9

Whew, I needed that one. I think the exacta will pay around $63. So $630 back isnt too bad. So far I am down $384. Hopefully I can make a dent into that in the last leg of the pick 3 at keeneland.
