Saratoga is killing me!
OK, so I'll say straight out. I'm not the best handicapper, but damn, toga is killing me this year. I can't find a winner in a one horse race.
It's so bad I bet on a horse that was scratched just to get my money back and they changed their mind and came in last. It's so bad I bet ALL and lost in a DQ to the Emergency Van. It really is bad. and you?.............................

If it wasn't for Bermudez lack of finish on King Andrew, Steve would have had the late Byk 4 as well.

We're a little bit ahead. We only go to the track Fri., Sat., and Sun. and don't wager any other days.

I know this sounds like a copout, but I've handicapped well and bet terribly for the most part.

you got to play exactas here. use favorites with a horse thats an overlay...below the surface of the "vacationers" radar. yesterday, stevil, china and hammock rounded off nice exatas under the more obvious horses. i caught two of them(did not have the chalky winner over china who went off 4 to 5 in her previous races...it paid 67). another angle is horses that run well and come back. bishop of nola was a steal at 10 dollars against the lowly state breds after winning here and getting claimed. the horse won by a football field.(missed the late pic 3 because i did not use telling.) i go everyday and rarely come out behind by the end of this meet. i'm killing them this year with about 2 exactas a day. this week, last sunday and monday were my only negative days. these exactas are crazy here, even the more chalky ones pay around twenty and i've hit 50 to 100 dollar ones that were not very hard to come up with using combinations of faves and sleepers.

I had a $5 exacta on Interactif/Grand Rapport. It barely covered all the losing bets I made today. Bill lost aboutn$20. But, it was a fun day, The weather was beautiful.
