Saw that you took Lanerie on Romancing the Gold - it is amazing to me that any trainers are giving him chances at this point. He never put this horse's speed to any use in that race.
He had to stop at the top of the stretch. The idiot on the 1 tried the rail...then went wide and lost by a nose.

At least the connections were loyal. A lot of good that does the bettors...the ****ing idiots.

My liking the 6 at 5-1 had a lot more to do with disliking anyone else in this field than finding positives with the 6.

And yes, Scott, I wasn't thrilled with Lanerie riding the 3. I threw out in my pk5 because I expected the horse to be 6-5 in this field, but at 6-1 on a Jacobson in a field of mules, I thought it was worth a shot. Like I said, at 5-1, I would have bet the 6 as I really thought the 1 would be, and was, way over bet. Of course, I overlooked the fact that it takes a competent rider to get a speed horse out of the gate quickly.

I am not sure why the 1 was not taken down for that stunt.
