Was alive to HdG for the P4 for $25k... and if either Goldi or Turallure wins the Mile, I have All in the last leg. Such is life in this game.

i went 3/4 in the late pick 4..have had losers 10000 times more heartbreaking...didn't even blink an eye at this one...i love cup day so the losses are easier to take since i'm having a good time.

last years late pick 4 paid $3998 for .50 (i'll never forget...hehehe)..think $1500 would have been pretty low compared to last years sequence

went something like

FAVORITE (Goldikova)
50-1 shot
14-1 shot
Blame (second choice)

Did a story ever come out about the one ticket alive in the PK 6 going into the Classic, that only had Rattlesnake Bridge and Ruler on Ice covered?
(Unless I read the willpays incorrectly)

Seems like someone played a ticket with birthdays or anniversaries instead of common sense, if they got that far and had those 2 covered in the classic.

Eh...I'm sure they are crying about having 2 tickets for 5 of 6. Or not.

I asked that question since on the first replay I didn't hear mention of the whip foul. I was then told by a local that the objection was for striking the horse with the whip and summarily advised "that in Kentucky, we treat whip responsibility akin to high sticking in the NHL".

My common sense tickets earned me zero dollars in the pick-6. I need friends and family with better birthdays.

I know that one of them was a pick quick. Not sure about the other.

I dont know what was more heartbreaking - missing out on the late pick 4 by Court Vision or missing out on a photo opportunity with Bo Derek

I'm disappointed you even have to think about that. It's obvious which is more heartbreaking.

My big regret on Friday was not getting a photo with our very own Andy Serling - I was too starstruck to ask!

It's amazing how petite Bo Derek is... taller than you of course, but petite.
