The speed duel never developed as 1 of the 2 speed horses went offstride. M A MACK finished 4th at 28-1

Attention fans: The Baron would like to go ahead and put out the Late Pick 3 (races 10-12) for this evening. Round up your loose change....search under the couch seats...run to the car and grab your dimes left over from the OTB.

Pinnacle is telling me the 6 is scratched in the middle leg, so the new ticket is as follows:


1,6,8/4/2,3,5,9

these people are so damn clueless....this horse was 5-1 ML and if you keyed off her race back on Aug. 31st, she was the best horse in the race.

I love people that play harness and have no clue what they are doing. Just keep pumping that dead money in the pools for The Baron:D


To think that people make fun of The Baron of Balmoral for playing this place every now and then.:cool:

you should have never told him that, I can see his head growing right now

30/1 is no joke though, but he had no reasoning to play that horse other then his dogs name is Sarah, don't let him try and tell you any other thing

DerbyCat
10-15-2006, 09:13 PM
Well, I figure he owes me... I had Mt.Langfuhr as a single in my late pick 4 today and I trusted his turf picks for the remainder of the ticket - losing that ticket hurt:(

He's already started referring to himself in the third person.

Next thing you know he'll be wearing one of those Rick Flair-type bathrobes.

Horse was tons the best...the favorite that ran 2nd is a confirmed quitter that was jumping back up in class. The winner had won at that level before as the favorite. 30-1 was Christmas for the next 5 years early.

Sorry about that...those last two winners today were tough. I liked the Tetonic in the 9th some...but I didn't think he was good enough to do it all. Crafty ride by Coa...

The 10th..I woulda never had that one.


Hope tonight has made up for it some. This will most likely become a every Sunday night gig.

I touted that Stratonic horse to my dad today but I didn't post about it because I wasn't playing, he didn't play it either.....I know it is redboarding but his sheet numbers were playable in this spot, especially at 20/1

shoulda played the straight trifecta in the 10th. :(

woulda rather had the 6 or 8 win...but we are still alive:D

some is wrong with Pinnacle....they are saying that the 6 is scratched and not the 3.:confused:

was gonna use him in my original pick 3....but it wouldn't let me

DerbyCat
10-15-2006, 09:44 PM
According to TVG the 3 is scratched, not the 6... should we expect the 6 to be in this? Like him enough to put a nice sized bet on him?

The 4 shows a few "breaks" in his running, so if he goes off stride, the 6 should be the one to win..but if the 4 stays flat...he should win.

DC.....all I can tell you is this....the winner of that 11th race...just won his 2nd race....yes...2nd race in his last 50 starts since the start of 2005. No way in hell I would put one red dime on him.

SORRY bro...

Lets see if we can find us a nice price to finish off the evening with.

9 was used too hard out of the gate. The 1 horse was tough for me as he looked about 1.5 seconds slower than my choices.
