Right???? What in the world were they thinking? HOrse was all out less than a month ago, add in the soft footing and the traveling, to single that horse is mindless.
I know you didnt like her at all, but with that kind of money invested, no excuses whatsoever, to leave Lahudood off of your main ticket. Shnaps, we had a 2$, 120$ total pick 3 starting with that race that we hit. If they are "experts", what does that make regular JOe Schmo's like us? Our bankroll was not even 1/54th of theirs (just about).

good question, he's shown an affinity for that track.

interesting tho that the euros went 0- on turf, but no doubt next year we'll hear all about how how turfers are second class compared to the shippers.
