It's already clear you add nothing to this site. There is no need to continue to prove it with each of your insipid posts.

Here's a thought....add 10 posts that actually involve some of the topics on this site....and then maybe one of your useless ( and completely humorless ) posts will seem slightly more tolerable.

That last race was comedy.

It's beyond absurd. The inside horse was dead....DEAD....and somehow held off the outside horse. And, did you see the closing rush by the #1 horse who was glued to the rail?

I sure did. I needed the 9 in my rolling pick 3's. It's frustrating watching the best horse lose.

I wasn't involved, but there is no way on an even racetrack the 9 horse loses the race. You can tell he was stronger. It's like he was held back by some invisible force.

Looked very sore to me, he got out into the 5 path. When he leveled out didnt have much punch. Rail may be golden today, but that 9 horse was sore

I wouldn't be surprised if that entire field of $25K NYB maidens is sore. The track, however, carried the winner home.

on second thought....

Who made you the Prince of Sipid?

You don't like me, that's ok. Not everyone does.

I'm good with the three people I've met through here who called me to say thanks for putting them on 4 of 6 pick 4's over a three day period last week. More than a few others also offered their thanks here.

Maybe I'll take your advice. Perhaps not. Who knows. But you really don't rate all that high in my book to take free slaps at people you obviously have a problem with for less than obvious reasons.

You ain't the only person on earth that knows a few things about the sport and making money at it.

Off topic, Bruce, but are you going down to GP for the Sunshine Millions? I'm pretty sure that Kevin is coming down here... we're going to Tampa Bay on Friday and then heading down to GP later that night.

I just got done watching TVG from today(I dvr it while I am at work).
that was ridiculous.

the closest I ever get to a racetrack is the finish line boxes at Lone Star.
so can someone tell me exactly how a track gets in this condition, and more importantly, why it is so difficult for the track maintenence crew to correct the overwhelming bias.
Im sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am very ignorant when it comes to these matters.
Ive never worked around dirt before.
I understand how track biases work and can identify them, but Im just wondering how they are physically formed.

Many times it is my opinion that a Bias is a convienient excuse for bad hadicapping that day.

Many times we just can't be honest with ourselves. And if a bias does exist and you recognize it's presence but still bet expecting a "non Biased result", well.....

I do not think there are as many true Bias situations as we seem to think there is.

it may be overused as an excuse,
but real biases do exist.
hell, if not, they would not have torn KEE apart and put in that crap that created another reversed bias.

My play is almost non-exsistant right now. I dont like anything at Turfway, I never really got into NY racing, I cant figure out Hollywood, Calder to me is a crap shoot and I cant get excited about the Fairgrounds. I have taken some stabs at NY the past few weeks to come up empty. I think I am going to wait for SA and then Gulf and Oak.
