On September 25th at PARX Ruffian won the contest by putting $20 on Hollywood Talent to win and the $219.20 win mutuel for each 2 bucks returned to her $2192 and a profit of $2092. Don Guido posted "It may be the biggest ROI this forum has ever had. Real Quiet should know." The short answer is "not even close". Now for the long answer. On 6/6/15 yours truly had an exacta for $20 which paid $374.50 for each 2 bucks for a total return of $3745 and a profit of $3545. That was a Belmont Day. Roamin comes in at # 2. On 6/8/19 Tom had an exacta and a win bet featuring Sir Winston and his profit on the day was $3320. That was a Belmont Day. Little Watermelon comes in 3rd with a profit of $2900 on 9/14/13 with a $100 win bet on a $60 winner. The 4th and 5th spots belong to Roamin in 2009 and 2014. In 2009 Tom played Furthest Land in the BC Dirt Mile and got back a profit of $2490. It was one of the few times Tom hit a place bet of $50. On 8/30/14 Tom showed a profit of $2475 with a $100 win bet on a $51.50 horse. 6 thru 10 belong to Digger, Ruffian (this year), Joly B, Dance Smartly and Whykickamoocow (one of the best names ever). And for my last fact that we chase every year. In 2019 Roamin banked $8912. He is the only player to break $7000. I'm done. Time to get ready for another season so good luck to all and to all a good ride.
