I usually like to check their picks after big racing days like this just to show what we all already know that this is not easy even for "experts". And not to redboard but to prove a point that wagering tactics can be more important than selections I keyed first dude and LAL but only in tris and collected zero also!!
Bob Neumeier (sp?) on the NBC broadcast suggested, with a $100 bankroll, a $60 win bet on Lookin at Lucky and a $20 exacta box with First Dude. I'd say that's crushing it. My hats off to him.

His partner, the immortal mush himself Battaglia, took Super Saver.
