I lost the chance at what would have been a nice score, but you take the chance of something like this happening when you give your money to the tellers. Who knows what would have happened in this instance? Its not like the horse was in the midst of a crazy rally, he was gaining a little bit but he had a lot to do to threaten the leaders, so it doesnt sting as much as it could have.
I should get my head examined for playing this track in the first place. I'm done Fairplex forever.

Gryder had alot of chances to win a race at Fairplex and I didn't see him ride a winning race. Fairplex is a track that you can have alot of trouble, but the results overall are very formful. My point is that Gryder was an instant toss for me at Fairplex and will be the same at Oaktree.
