8/10: Saratoga (Day 20; Tale of the Cat)

Didn't see the 7th. Why was the horse placed last? Did he foul the last place finisher? Honest question I don't know the placing rules for when a horse gets placed last.

Was brutal. Heel clip as he was rallying that dropped foe. Faller was going nowhere too. Lost a $20.20 winner and P5/P4 that likely returns $3,000.

Brutal.. Game is gut wrenching. He was placed in back of the horse he fouled which was a DNF. Ok then I understood the rule.

Brutal ain't the word! I circled the 9 a winner as soon as he crossed the finished line in the seventh race, taped the last 3 races and went to bed, work graveyard shift so when I see the 9 dq I wanted to throw up after seeing the next 3 races come in, I really needed a big score, I know Steve will hit one soon, I been following Steve for years and know he is going to hit a big one soon, thanks for posting your picks Steve
