I was actually going to bet him today but he was 5/1 with 2 min left and I couldnt at that price. Didnt matter, the day was an utter mess.

WHAT--you cant be serious. Why on earth would you even bet him at 50-1?

He did run well, but I didn't bet him. I road the chalk all day long. Made a killing. Should have taken your own advice DaHoss. Us chalk players occasionaly have our day. Getting some of that Saratoga money back. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

He has lost it. He is attacking me all over the place. He knows I am a chalk player and made a killing. Yesterday he was bashing me for all my 4-5 shots. Well today we had our day. Chalk Players Unite.

Way to go! How thrilling!

I love Denny's but tonight the alcohol will be flowing. The Mets will clinch the NL East championship tonight.

You have continually provided us with insight that we would be hard pressed to find elsewhere. Good luck with all of your future wagers, and keep knocking 'em dead.

You get mighty worked up over a chat board. Yesterday you were bashing me for playing all 4-5 shots and today you are questioning if I play chalk. Well I got slaughtered at Saratoga and admitted it, but belmont is often good to the chalk players. There is no tourist/vacation money pounding down favorites. Favorites at belmont are favorites because of smart money.

thanks.
I made it a point to write this one down, I don't want to forget it.

Quality inside information like this is the reason I read this board.

Ditto. He deserves better.

He ran like a tired, over the hill, misplaced horse is supposed to run. Good job by the FC camp, nice spot.

Congratulations to the winner and
his connections.
I have to agree with most of you
that Funny Cide ran a good race.
Corny IMO took him too wide and
the extra whipping was not neccessary.
I think Mig or even Santos are the
best for him. Funny looked great and
seemed to be into it, which is a good
thing.Everyone came back safe and sound,
which makes it a good race for me.
