ROI Results 8/29 @ Saratoga
 

We visited Saratoga 6 times in 2020 and saved the best for last. Well at least some of us had
a best. And I gather some of us are glad it's over. To me it just didn't have the excitement of
previous years. Anyway 5 tickets were cashed with two players hitting the cashiers window
twice. Joly B cashed the biggest ticket, a $60 quinnela but could only walk away with a 3rd
place finish and a $20 profit. Ruffian and Cruzan battled it out for the top spot with 2 double
digit winners each. Cruzan had a little more on each of his winners and also cashed a bigger
ticket and wound up with an easy win. Ruffian and Cruzan matched winners in race 1 as Grey
Jazmine took the opener and paid a solid $35.80. Cruzan nailed an even bigger winner in race
3 as Bye Bye Melvin waved our contestants bye bye with a whopping $41.00 mutuel. Ruff had
a few chances to make a run and hit a $16.20 winner in race 8 but it was too little, too late.
Congrats to Cruzan on a big win and our highest return on the year. Nicely played Cruz and
thanks for sharing your stategy. In my case you can teach an old dog new tricks and I'm
sure I'll have this game mastered by 2050. Kudos to Ruffian on a total that would win most
weeks. Following are the unofficial results pending a video booth review. See you all next
week at the Derby. There was an old Daily News drawing that showed the Derby and a
caption that for two minutes the world stopped to watch it. Might be a good time for that
to be true.

Not that it's going to help me a whole lot, but I think I had a winner in Race 7. I played a $10 exacta 2,3//1 which should have given me a return of $66 or did I exceed the limit or commit some other infraction of the rules?

You are correct Cal. I had it recorded but did not transfer it right to the web page. Thanks for the pickup.

Thanks.
