Chalkfest today at Belmont
 
Bet $50 to win on every favorite and you will have a nice little profit today. Henny will be the favorite too, not the train.

Key words, "little profit".
For those that have cajones, there are some beatable chalks.
"Big profits" seem better to me.
Do as you like.

bet that way and one losing fave will wipe out the 'little' profit. way to go out on a limb saying all the faves will win. ah, such bravery. such guts. such....:rolleyes:

It is only idiocy if they don't win. Trying to beat favorites for the sake of beating a favorite is idiocy. Often favorites are beatable, today they aren't.

Hey, by tonight, if we see that Sweet September, Drizzly, Egyptian King, Balletto, Argentina, War Front and one of the Hirsch imports all win, we'll say they all were legitimate plays.. and NONE will be favorites. That's why they run the races!

Gotta to get in the shower and get back to BEL!

Enjoy all.. Best o' luck!

I'm with ya DaHoss. There will be plenty like Nos betting today like they think they have the "key"...bet all chalk.
I have no problem taking their "safe" money.
Good luck!

Show me someone who has made a profit in the year betting nothing but favorites, it's impossible. See if you knew ANYTHING about stuff like this you would get it, but I guess big bro forgot to tell you about it, he was too busy framing his pictures with all of the horses you guys LOVE to tout Mr. Agenda.
I don't bet all favorites. I handicapped the card and the favorites in every race today are where the value is. Every single race.

"Value"? hmmmm...

Add them up when the day is over. I will have a nice profit and your money too. :eek:

DaHoss,
Don't feed him.
Let's see what his chalks pay IF they all come in.
I won't tell him who is beatable. More for us.
Those that look for little profit often times don't find it...but hey, good luck with that.

Yeah, sure.

And the Yankees are still going to win easily last night.

You sound stupider as time goes on.

It's impressive.
