I'll take a big slug of that valium ma'am Johnny Velasquez pretty much shot all my plays down in flames by running second in the big race at 34-1 and he did the same thing in race 7 at 44-1. Serves me right I guess for making such chalky plays.

[ElPrado]

You guys did something anyway. I couldn't pick my nose today.

[JolyB]

It's kind of funny how a player's perspective of a day's races is influenced by how he or she approached the betting. Many of yesterday's winners were favorites or co-favorites, yet there were some very unlikely longshots in the second or third slots.

If you were playing the horizontal exotics, you might have concluded that the day was fairly formful. The only price of any kind in the pick 6 was the La Prevoyante winner, and that was only about 7-1. The final pick 4 had a run of either first or second choices and paid accordingly.

Yet, Cal correctly noted that those who were trying their luck with the vertical exotics needed to be either very creative or very fortunate to cash some of the tickets. In the third, the exacta was totally predictable, but the third place finisher was 66-1. In the 7th, the winner and third place finisher were contenders, but the second place finisher broke up a number of exactas and trifectas at 44-1. A trifecta player in the Hooper would have needed a crystal ball or an all button to include a 70-1 shot in the third slot after two of the top three contenders on top. And as Cal already bemoaned, Seeking the Soul split the top two choices in the finale at 34-1.

A horizontal player left asking himself why he wasted money by going too deep in a pick 4. A vertical player either cashed a big ticket or tore up lots of smaller ones unless the play was very creative. It can be a very "funny" game to play.

[cal828]

Well, to be honest, which is certainly necessary with yourself, if not to others, I don’t know whether I would have done any better had I played the horizontal plays. Maybe I would have in the doubles and pick 3s, but don’t know whether I would have hit the Pick 4 and congrats to you for doing so. When I saw that the racetrack was wet, I thought I didn’t want any part of those late turf races, but as you said, the winners were logical.

I think my imaginary play is very much influenced by my real play. I am a small bettor and as I said in another post, I can count on one hand the number of pick 3s and pick 4s that I have ever played for real. I am more comfortable playing exactas and trifectas and so that is what I usually do even with cyber dollars.

And for a bit more honesty, the two long shots that I missed were not entirely illogical. The 44-1 shot in the 7th had run third in her last race after Dream Pauline, yesterday’s winner and Stormy Embrace, yesterdays 3rd place finisher. That one really snuck up on me, but Seeking the Soul was a little different. I agonized over what to do with him. I’m sure we’ve all been there before. I really didn’t like him on a wet track, but recognized that he had performed well at the distance in a Grade 1 race. I compromised by putting him third on my larger ticket. I could probable sum this all up by quoting Shakespeare from Othello, but that would be entirely too pedantic. The short of it is I screwed up and I have only myself to blame, and that is the name of this game, which is almost as poetic as Ms. Ruffian. Congrats to her on hitting a nice one too. and congrats to all the winners and condolences to the losers like me, but don't despair losers, we shall rise again(maybe?)!!

Hey EP, I know how you feel. I'm barely picking mine this year so far. I've lost my basic key approach and just realized it. Stop over thinking and pick the dang horses, stupid . . . I said t myself.
