Saratoga Meet so Far

[blackthroatedwind]

It is July 31st. This meeting has always been about the month of August. The bad weather obviously didn't help, and perhaps the economy is somewhat relevent, but it's too early to make any definitive conclusions.

The one positive of the bad economy is less vacations means more people home on weekends looking for something to do that decide to hit up the track, and more people sitting at home betting on their computer.

More on the betting end....am I the only one getting my ass handed to me thus far? It's feeling like a bad replay from last year.

It's been my worst start in many years.

I've been getting absolutely killed to the point where I'm forcing myself to take a one week break. . . which is hard since I have to be there every day. It seems like all the winners are either logical chalk or illogical longshots - none of the logical longshots that we all look for.

Since I had my 9 year old granddaughter with me last Saturday, I was betting her whims.

Her whims were not particularly good.

Now when my daughter was her age, she had a six or seven win day. People near us wanted to know who the little girl liked.

Well, you don't lose much on $1 bets.

I have had my butt handed to me all year. I am down 23% from this time last year. I haven't been able to wager on Saratoga other than a couple of times. I hope to change things around beginning today.

I seriously can't think of the last time I have had so many pick 3 tickets bust out on the last leg. It's maddening because I love the meet so much...but just can't catch a break I need to turn to the corner.

I thought i was the only one who became an idiot on the last leg of the pic 3 or 4, and a genius on the beginning legs. I which i knew why that always seems to happen, and it usually doesnt matter how many picks I have in the last leg. I think I would even question me hitting if i had the all button punched
