Etched
 

Hey Steve,

Did you finally see the race with Etched (the McLaughlin 2YO) from Sunday??

Your thoughts?


Bill from NJ

I'm assuming the bank roll will be $800, same as the last contest.

Ticket #1:
1,4,6,7 / 2,4 / 1,2,3,8 / 3,4 / 3,7 / 2,3,4 = $768 (changed after the scratch of #5 in the 8th, replaced with the 2 in the 9th)

Ticket #2:
1 / 2,4 / 3 / 3 / 3,4 / 2,3 = $32

Total $800.

Not playing as I only spent a total of 20 minutes handicapping and putting together tickets. Tough night to handicap when you have children.


Good Luck to all who will actually be playing a ticket.

6 out of 6 paid $164,081!!! Damn that Classic Marilyn, I used 4 that race and still didn't have her. Does 5 out of 6 get me a hat???:)

I would have had it for real if Optimist Girl had gotten up in the 7th.

And it was a nice shot... 5 of 6!

Only if one is allowed to bet/post after the first leg has been run.

Andy.. Yikes! She looked like a winner late... Can't believe the payout...

Who needs Breeders' Cup when there's Thursday P6's at the Big A!

OOOOOO!!!!!

Congrats to 'djw' and golfer who went 5 of 6... Prizes await..

Perhaps if Castabonehead hadn't been fifteen back in last at a mile on the Aqueduct turf she would have won but then again she has a habit of hanging.

The payoff was huge because Classic Marylin was impossible and obviously bigger in the Pick-6 but it still would have been about 20K with Optimist Girl.

Was just about to ask you that but I couldn't type it in a way that didn't look like I was calling you out, just couldn't word it right on a message board. 20k was my guess also. Whoever had Classic Marylin most likely hit the all button.

I think I got zero! Any boobie prize?

I don't know how you could have it without hitting the all button on the right race today...

I agree.

I'm whining but it's a little annoying that the first two finishers basically ran one-two around the track and Optimist Girl came from way back in dead last.

What can you do. It's not like I won with any clever horses in the sequence. Plus I only put in $280 and I couldn't have hit it for $20K.
