I tend to agree with you but it wouldn't be the first time I bet on one! Sometimes they even come through, I've actually even seen you wearing a Dunce Cap a time or two.

Scratches are up at Nyra. com.

Can some one explain to me why NY prohibits coupled entries from running in Superfecta races?

[pmacdaddy]

Scratch of La Porta messes me up pretty bad. Back to the drawing board...

I was almost getting desperate to wear it last summer, so I started taking more and more chances as the meet wore on, and of course when I finally earned the right some annoying horse got an absolutely dream trip to photo my two horses and cost me a fortune. So there I am, getting buried in general, taking an annoying beat, and having every Tom, Dick and Harry breaking my balls around the racetrack and town for the rest of the day and night.

But....It's a tradition like none other. So if you're willing to take one for the team, it's all in good fun in the end.

It's absolutely all in good fun.....and if I never wear it then it loses its appeal.

Good luck to everyone today. Right now, in rural upstate, NY it's 44 degrees, so it's got to be much warmer down in Aqueduct. Great hit yesterday Hooves on the SA play you made. That's awesome. Going to change strategy a little today and make some pick-3 plays. Made a little over 1,200 two years ago on Super Bowl Sunday, so hopefully I can get the Karma going today. Later

Let's hope the Patriots have bad Karma!

Sounds like everyone had a great time at your expense, sorry I missed it. So if Ty's Ridge is your Dunce cap horse who are the legitimate contenders, other than the favorite?

I know you don't like sharing your opinions before the race (which i respect) so I'll understand if there is a long delay before you reply.

Gonna punch a $1AB ticket and see what happens. Hope to get 2 prices.

Good Luck!

[Holland Hacker]

Good Luck Pat!

I think I'm going to play the following tickets:

Pick 4:
9,10 / 2,9 / 1,5 / 2,3,7,8 = $32 3 of 4 Barn Skpa
2,9,10,12 / 2,9 / 1,5,7 / 3,8 = $48 (Come on Dunce Cap) 3 of 4 Darn Skpa - At least I backed it up with a Pick 3 to lessen the blow.

Pick 3 starting race 7:

2,3,9 / 1,5,7 / 2,3,7,8 = $36

[pmacdaddy]

Good Luck! Curious to see how this #13 looks on the board...

[pmacdaddy]

Got $2 to the 3,4. Buck to 2,7. Will pays are not bad.

Come on #4!!! ($3.288).

Dunce Cap fell off my final ticket. If he wins, I may need to borrow...

When you take the cap off may I borrow it for leaving Sykpa off of my Pick 4.

I should have been already wearing it when he won as well.

I didn't like the favorite in there but only really used the second finisher and the ridiculous longshot that bolted. It didn't matter, as I used five horses in the last, and obviously not the winner. He felt like a " they knew " as he dropped from either 5-1 or 7-2 to 2-1 in the last flash.

That horse took some serious money. I didn't have it. but a buddy did.

Was feeling pretty good looking at tote. As they were loading those odds fell like a rock. That's The downside of betting 3 races in advance.

Last Sunday we cashed the third highest will pay on the post time fav (12-1 ML) 7/2 at post. One of the things that makes the pick 4 interesting.
