![]() I cashed 6 of the first 9 exactas on the card and was still down about $30 because I couldn't hit a tri.
Did the same thing I always do in the Derby - I bet scared. I always play way too many tri's and bet horses that I'm scared to leave out instead of focusing on the ones I think have the best shot. No way I'm going to let Edgar, Dominguez, or Desormeaux beat me out of a tri since they are/were MD jocks. And because I played their horses, even though I didn't think they had a shot, it cut into the profits that Mario running second brought me. |

![]() I hit the pick 3 for about $450 dollars on races 8-9-10. I also cashed on the 5ht race. But I wagered $1025 and only got back half of that. Over Oaks and Derby day I lost $324.00. If it wasnt for Oaks day I would have got creemed. But I did very Ok if you count Thursday. If you do that, I am up around $1400.

![]() Had an okay day, hit the 1st pik4, busted on the 1st leg of the pik 6, in the Woodford had 1, 7, 4 in the positions of the trifecta, hard beat there. We hit the pik4 up to the Derby, we played some combos and were busted out on all except one up to the Derby, we had SS singled and I wasn't confident having to rely on a single in the Derby, but it worked out. We have to thank Steve Crist for this, his exotic betting book has made a huge difference in our handicapping. Ranking the horses A, B, C, and X is huge, then we rank the races A, B,C and X and play accordingly.

![]() Lost all my tri bets, just about broke even with an exacta saver bet. Ironically, I came up with a small, last-minute bet (a $1 tri wheel for $18 total) for a family member and placed it at his request, and did not make a similar bet for myself. It hit for $220.

![]() I hit a 10 dollar tri at Belmont that paid 5000 after I gave my girlfriend the 680girlfriend tax. Distant View was the broodmare sire and the horse had never turfed, plus he carried all the pace. Put the 7 and 10 in second, and 5 horses in third. It ran 5 10 3.
Had 200 to win on James Graham at Arlington on a Biancone piece he absolutely butchered to lose by a neck at double digit odds. The ride was almost a TV jerker. Thats when I tear the TV off the front off wherever Im sitting. Had 400 to win on the horse 7 Andy liked in NY, Rajiv fell off about hundred yards from the wire. Couldnt show any emotion because the girlfriend was there again. I had to take a walk and get some water. I had a real big bet Derby Eve on Uncle Walter at Mountaineer and Rex Stokes should be in jail for the ride he gave me. All in all Im up about 4k on the weekend, but it could have been a very solid weekend without the bad luck.

![]() Ive never really liked Rajiv and hes given me a number of poor rides. While watching the replay 2 or 3 times I was hoping he didnt get trampled, but that one of the trailers would step on his ankle. Just break his ankle, dont hurt him seriously. The horse did duck, but Ive seen guys stay on much worse.
