Default My best day ever

At the track today. 4 tri's, 1 exacta and a win ticket in 9 races. I don't bet fat money so it wasn't like thousands of dollars. I had 65 bucks when I walked in, bet 9 races at about 10 bucks a race, drank beer all day, buying my pops beer too(nice to repay the ol man) and still walked out with over 100bucks of Churchill's money. I want to thank you guys on here for your insights and thoughts on the various topics and I appreciate you all taking the time to answer my questions. I think I've learned quite a bit in the short time I've been on here and look forward to taking back some more of the money I've donated in the past. I'll give today 4 cool shades up!!

Thanks to all you guys. Preciate it!! I will definately saver the moment and tuck it away. Timmy G, the contest is really no trouble at all. Life is good when you win at the track and cap the night off w/ a fine lookin lady to boot. Shoot me a PM and I'll tell you about it, great story! Cloud 9 ain't got nuttin on me today!!! I'm runnin em back tomorrow. Took a look and the first few @ CD and it looks a little suspect, think I'll be going later in the day. I don't expect to do the same, but I might as well ride her till she bucks me. Take er easy my DT peeps!!!!

It surely wasn't "Churchill's Money." It was all of ours...

Churchill got their cut.

DAys like this will keep you coming back for years. I still remember hitting nine winners one night at the dog track 20 years ago...I don't think I picked a dog race correctly since.

You're right, when you walk into the track all those fellow fans are the bank. Savor the winners and forget the losers.
