LOL, you are right, the problem was I checked the board at Youbet and not the win payoff. Youbet sucks, update the F ing board....Very honorable of you Grits--my admiration for you is growing by leaps and bounds....Give me 10 minutes and I'll fix it.

Thank you Randall. Accuracy is good, it works for us all.

I read over Brisnet's results and charts. Those work for me.

Well I would obviously do the same if you were doing them...It's hard sometimes to keep it all straight but the easy thing to do is check the off odds at Youbet--always thought they were perfect on that, but maybe I'll pdf results from now on....Minor thing I guess....440 behind. Getting late early.

Grits that 13 dollars can get you 12 items, considering tax, on the Wendy's extra value meal. I suggest a plethora of junior cheesburgers, frosties, and sour cream potato--mind you I actually checked the Wendy's website for this post. Sad really.

Thanks RS for posting. I had a couple today, and that works.

I don't do Wendy's. Square burgers on a round bun. --Never have understood that deal.

I'm more of a Panera Bread Co.type. Those do me better.

Thank you sweetheart, as we mosey along. Tomorrow is Sunday, and that means that you will hammer me once again, more than likely.

Don't know how you can do better than 28% exacta rate for races right now. But the big ones at that clip can get you even.

Still around $300. The $127. exacta in the 6th at GP that I missed by .20 cents, and another small one by another .20 cents at SA would have helped.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda. Rand, I think I'm going to be buying you a bottle of whiskey darlin.'

Give me another week, I'll pass you.

Not in a week. Maybe 2. You've had a good run. It will go in the other direction. I believe the end will be within 200 bucks.

Rand, I just now looked at today's results at GP, wow, what a chalkfest. Glad I didn't download the races.

Well, I guess they'll run today at Aqueduct--if its sunny, and 70. And they'll run at GP today too.

And what all this means is -- unless I hit a couple of whopping big exactas, Rand's next bottle of fine whiskey is on me!

Maybe today will be MY day . . . right, where's that damn rolling eyes furball?

Rand, in the 8th at GP, you need to remove the exacta, the 2nd favorite at $1.80 won, over the longshot, the chalk ran 3rd at $1.50.

Anyway that's 250 races, so either way--I don't know what our sampling shows, kinda close at this point, but still you've won. And I will be buying you your favorite whiskey.

Thank you for all the results and posting them. You did a great job.

dg

NO NO NO. Its not over at all. 250 races towards it....84 instances are done...Its 250 times a 10-1 finishes 1st or 2nd. Still a long long way to go. Only a third of it is done. This is a large sample we are doing. Will be done in about 20 more days I'm guessing. That will de definitive.

no there are still about 165 races to go

Ok, I thought that you meant a total of 250 races. Good, then, we still have more work to do.

Thank you again, and sorry that you had such a long day. Get some rest.

The blue tinted info is all that matters. The races thing is something you wanted me to add....thanks, my day was good though it was long...Appreciate taking the exacta back---close faves and I'm tired so I missed it.

A nightmare day indeed. I feel like somewhere I lost the fat kid at the end of my tug of war rope and am now being pulled towards the center. Where is he?

Where's one of those big kiss and hug furballs when you need one!!!! Calls for a Crown--on the rocks. My dream exacta, indeed.

Thank you Rand.

(((((((*kiss*)))))))

And as they move on up the backstretch, Grits makes a run up into contention not wanting to let randall get too loose on the lead.

I really don't want to be looking at his hind all the way to the finish line, ArlJ.

I DON'T.

Well then you'll just have to pass him, then you won't have to look at it.

another huge day for grits so far... may pull ahead. racing finally getting back 2 normal at GP

The front wraps have just been added to me in mid-running. LOL, good day for you. I feel like Hillary Swank in Boys Don't Cry.

Total Races Run At All Tracks During The Contest--319

Well, I'll be darn. If this were the wire, I'd say we're pretty close.

Thank you Rand for posting. If you play tomorrow, good luck, I hope that you have winning tickets.

This has been a very long week.

Thanks Grits. Go celebrate tonight. B/c like a horse on EPO, I'll find another gear eventually.

OMG randall!

you better hope she made her move prematurely.

front wraps added druing the race? too funny.

Jim her move was wide and I have Borel on my back (that sounds bad) so you know what that means.

Ah ah, then you're in good hands with Bo-rail.

I wish we would change venues today. Let's do TURFWAY. I feel some fine exactas brewing.

Another devastating exacta at AQ. The fave by a grand teams up with a 55-1.

Oh, how grand!
