8/18: Saratoga (Day 22)

[Kasept]

Continue to leak money with little but small exotics to show for efforts and an inability to string winners together.. Bankroll drops another net -$40 Friday to bring total to -$340.00 for the meet.. Nothing a big trifecta or good P4 can't fix, but hard to bet with confidence right now.. Alabama Day not particularly inspiring either..
