All Grade I winning mare exacta at Belmont...

...in the 7th.

Im redboarding like hell, but I have the 3-5-8 boxed for $5. Paying almost $200 for $1.

Wow.

I'm shocked they didn't take the winner down.

Again, I am guilty of redboarding my ass off, but I have to say I would not have argued for one second had they taken him down.

What makes me sick is that I have had such a horrible year betting horses that before the Preakness I drastically cut down the size of my bets. And now I'm on a roll. Not that I'm gonna complain about an exacta that pays almost 200-1, but I never play $5 exacta boxes. Not since college.

Still shocked they kept the winner up.

Who would admit to having a such a horrible year at the track that he had to cut down the size of his bets other than someone who was telling the truth?

Probably because of the shiatty economy.

I don't remember ever seeing an exacta where the dams of the 1-2 finishers were Grade I winners. And if it has happened, I guarantee you the exacta didn't pay $392.
