Once again....I can pick them but I play them wrong.

Liked Sabooth in the 2nd, but only made a small flat bet after using her underneath the 7 & 5.

In the third I used Pulla Fast One under triples and exactas and had a small win bet on him.

The real bad news is I didn't play the pick-3 or pick-4!!!!!!

#5

5,7/5,7/2,3,4

7/4-8-9/4-8-9-2-3-5

I'm winning today, but man am I kicking myself for not at least playing the Pick-3. What a jackass.

Nice hit in the 3rd...

Nice......Wheeled the 7 as well!!!!! Got excited for a minute because I thought it was 7-8-5. I need the 6 or 8 in the 6th for the Pick-3.

we should have talked my value play ran second...great job today.......

Thanks Hooves, but you know I'm kicking myself for not having either the Pick-3 or 4. It's just I've been burned so many times. Can you believe a
$16 Pick-4 Play would have returned me $2600. Gotta love this game.
Good Luck the rest of the day.

4x2x3=24

Another part of Montgomery County Heard from. I thought you'd be up in the Press Box Today.

"e-street" need pick / selection for Monday!

Sent it a few minutes ago

that was yesterday...up $75. after the first two races
then.....well, even for the day. :mad:

OK there Bill Heller.

thanks :)

then whose Cusano & Harris, you or Tom

Had a perfect trip..nothing for the stretch.

Heller and Cusano's top picks on races 1 through 10 are exactly the same today. And guess what they are both 0 for the day. In their columns why don't they just say to the public...."Play either the first or second favorite in each race."

:D .....
most of my winners have been "chalk" too. At least I posted total money won on my top selections; $6.10 (2-1) going into today.

Of course just after I hit that Heller has that last exacta boxed, but of course he had tactical gold on top. Does he realize that his picture in the paper looks like that?
