Santa Anita Lunacy so far
 

*sigh*

$2.00 Double 12/9 paid $3096.20 - good thing I got shut out

Its really a shame. Really dont understand why they HAVE to do this and its gonna get someone really hurt. (See first turn of dirt mile)

It's embarrassing.

Exactly. I like Goldencents but that last race is just ridiculous. He couldnt have gone ANY faster for the first 4 furlongs and no one makes up any ground. Game is hard enough but this just makes people sour

Going to be a lot of pissed off owners and trainers.. Host site has an obligation to owners, trainers and bettors to create a fair environment. This is anything but fair.

It really is and they are talking about making it permanent there. What a joke.

Did the pk6 meet the guarantee?

I did not mind his ride. Whats amazing was his price. The Euros dominate this race every year..... I thought 9-2 would have been fair. I believe it was mentioned on the National Racing Report that his downfall could be that he has been a bit rank. Im not a Castellano fan, but he did nothing wrong. Why fight with the horse, I never understand that. I feel he gave the horse the best chance to win and was run down by 2 better horses.

As far as I can tell, it missed the guarantee by over 100k. ($891,012)

Thanks, that is a major embarrassment.

But the weather...I'd prefer Monmouth in the rain to this and I've bet all of 1 of these races so far.

It is currently 61 degrees in New York right now after hitting 70 today. There was a little rain this morning, but not enough to have affected taking races off the turf, particularly since this would have been Belmont's closing weekend if it was held here.

Yup. Beautiful. Was pushing my kid on the swing while the Marathon was going on.

Very clever redboard ;) You are not losing as much as we are

Gettin' it ready for Game on Dude :rolleyes:

Yes thank you. Too bad my year has been so shitty. Much more of the reason I am gun shy but the track condition is as good of a reason as any so I went with it.

You are disciplined. I wait all year for this and have done well the last 3 years. Today not so good but it only takes one swing of the bat.

Its called dependents...totally right by the way, you must be relatively new here.....In '05 I was down 3k before the Distaff. Bought an Acura TL off the lot after the race. One swing on Cup day is all you need.

Anyone here use capitalotb??? I just went into the new website for the first time and messed around with the extened account calculator and its 100% broken. It says I have bet $8900 this year and lost $8600, no shot.

The truth hurts sometimes.

Its broken. It says I didnt wager from Jan to May then did from May until last month. Also my biggest handle days... Derby, Belmont, Peakness, opening day toga, travers JCGC im either at Racino or an OTB so I dont use account. Its broken. Ill happily let a stand up trustworthy person like you log in and look around if you want. Like I said I havnt used it and just found out things changed so I had to set it up for tomorrow morning.

dahoss broke it for you:rolleyes:

Where is that guy? He was a good player.

dont know..

Shoot me a PM you I would also trust you to take a look.... I called but they said to call back Monday to much other stuff going on. Im concerned w/ this bogus ROI

I DONT CARE..sorry

Nice bet on Hatches btw. I lost 30 keying her in the 2 day double.

Does today's bias come into play when voting for 3 year old filly?

This could be fun to follow.....

the better question is the track the opposite tomorrow after this **** show....stay tuned

Yet another reason why the pk5 is so poorly placed.

excellent point....i don't play multirace often so i wouldn't even think of that

Any race run on dirt today should not be considered in voting IMO. Frankly, I would not have blamed them if they scratched Princess of Sylmar since she had no chance on that track.

You should. Tomorrow's P5 at Santa Anita might be the best value multi race exotic of all time considering the low take, and 1 millie in the kitty already.

If you can find a way to beat Flashback in the 2nd (which with the way the track is playing, its extremely possible because I don't see him on the lead), it will absolutely massive.

She still didnt run a step, track did not get her beat 17 lengths.

It would have been great to see that, would have really REALLY made a statement because they could have scratched up to 2 hrs before post.

Who did run a step from that far back today?

She was 4 lengths back of Royal Delta in their last race, she was 10 back today, she did no running at any point.

I agree once she did not run early she was not going to make up much ground but you think she could have passed a Royal Delta who stopped at the QP.

I will take a peek but I have strong opinions on single horses, never lots of races.

The fact that she could not get past Royal Delta who I agree stopped IMO confirms even more how much the bias affected the results today.

You think she ran today and it was the track that held her back?
