Good Racing Luck

Good Luck Gus, and thanks for the help.

As always, thanks for your insights Gus. Here's hoping Unbridled Forever can somehow turn the table on Untapable today.
In the words of Harvey Pack, may the horse be with you.

Thanks, 2DB & HF - Knock em dead this weekend.

Gus just checking with your picks on the Oaks/Derby double and pick 3 on this your only using California Chrome on the $2 double is that correct? just wondering I don't know if your using the 5 and punched the 15 I know you have been a killer on this bet in the past, I have raved it about the last few years at work and now they say whats Gus like in this years Oaks/Derby Double LOL

Sorry for the late response, that was actually a typo and should of been the 15 Tapiture. Thanks for the kinds words and best of luck on Derby day.
