That a total of $210,000 in added handle by failed bridgejumping. Tapizar and Sidney's Candy were both the medium of a big failed bridgejump attempt in Graded Stakes races this meet. Others have happened out there very recently as well.
to recoup just the whimpy $210,000 lost playing around on cheap races ... you'd need to make a successful $4,200,000.00 show bet.
When they score that extra 210K in handle they don't complain ... but God forbid ... if they get beat out of a negative show pool for a few thousand dollars it's the end of the world.
