Worked with Giacomo, Bluegrass cat and hard spun horses whose odds just didn't seem right with what i thought i knew. Or hell, maybe i was just hammered and got lucky. I know i did with Giacomo but the other 2s odds just didnt seem right at post time too me. Dammit it wouldn't be KD if i didn't get smashed on those awful friggin mint juilups. That new drink they have had the past couple of year think its called a lilly with cranberry, vodka some 7up and some blueberries in it is pretty damn tasty as well. Man i can't wait!!!!

I take Thursday off of work every year before the Derby trip to spend all day capping Friday and Saturday. As the week goes by, I check the charts to see how the track is playing so I take a measure against a developing bias. I typically start Saturday off playing the first two or three races , then bet the entire card by the 4th so I can avoid the lines and not let any bad beat change my play.
