I'll bet races at Keeneland the first weekend in December. It just won't be on Keeneland races.

So... vent for me. What hap[pened? Did the pace stop again? Did a horse knock the **** out of another, but the inquiry was denied? What?

Just **** horses winning because of running style. Best horses arent winning, you either like the track and come from way off, or you get a ham sandwich.

Default not

I was of similar opine early on, but, I have learned what to look for each day I play there. It's quite different and I adjust to it.It's a learning process and I figure I better learn it because it is the future. CAn't live in the past my friend. I don't try for homeruns. How can you not like the lower takeout and large fields and payouts in kentucky ?

Thank God the Frizette wasn't run on polytrack today because I can't even imagine the whining that would be going on here if it was.

The complaining everytime someone gets beat on polytrack reminds me of all the people who complain when they get a bad beat in poker on-line and claim it is fixed - extremely lame. Guess what, if we all knew how every race was going to turn out we'd all be rich. They throw in stinkers on every surface (as evidenced by the Frizette) and there are always going to be horses that dominate allowances and suck when they step up to stakes races like Latent Heat.

If you want to discuss how it isn't playing to speed then fine, that is a legitimate capping angle. If you just want to bash the surface then go troll somewhere else so those of us who actually want to play polytrack can discuss the races on it.

I cannot use horses that I know are inferior to others regardless of surface. Many of these horses are horses I know personally, its just not the best horses winning races. I cant get my mind to play such an extreme bias, therefore Im done playing.

As for online poker being rigged, there is noway it isnt. Ive played a lot of poker, very rarely at a casino table game will you have 5 guys in a hand until the end all playing for different draws. Its so obviously set up for maximum rake. That argument is worse than poly being a fair racing surface

Sniper its not that its rigged.
But once again, we've bred and trained horse for speed for God knows how long.
A surface in which there are 3 wire jobs in 7 days of racing, well I mean, do you really feel the most talented horse is winning?
