Default American Derby

Why am I the only one who thinks the chalkier Euro is going to give Tizdejavu a lot of pressure up front? Blue Exit will track those two and win at a nice price.

I was live to five horses in the late pick-4.
Those horses ran 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th.
It wouldn't have paid a ton but still....
I hate this game.

Miraja, the nightcap was a nightmare race to decifer with all the 1sters. Tough that you finished 2 thru 6. Keep firing away.

Timeless Miss ran an "interesting" race in the last. Might want to play that one next out.

I knew it wouldn't pay much, but it ended up being really low (under $200) and probably wouldn't have paid much more if any of mine came in. When I saw that, I was less pissed. But still, finishing 2-6 hurts a little, especially with the winner splitting horses like that to get up.

As a group, we were alive to ALL in the last leg, but it didn't help a whole lot because our spreading in the other legs really failed to help us catch a price whatsoever. We were live to 4 horses in the P6 too, but that didn't work out either.

The P4 will-pays were decent really, considering that Sun for Fun was a HUGE and obvious single.

You were looking at $80 on Napoleon's Retreat, $120 on Bonanza Babe, $190 on Timeless Miss, $214 on Frosty Sky, and $397 on Iris Germanica, compared to $144 for the winner.
