Default Chalkfest today at Belmont
Bet $50 to win on every favorite and you will have a nice little profit today. Henny will be the favorite too, not the train.

Key words, "little profit".
For those that have cajones, there are some beatable chalks.
"Big profits" seem better to me.
Do as you like.

bet that way and one losing fave will wipe out the 'little' profit. way to go out on a limb saying all the faves will win. ah, such bravery. such guts. such....

It is only idiocy if they don't win. Trying to beat favorites for the sake of beating a favorite is idiocy. Often favorites are beatable, today they aren't.

Show me someone who has made a profit in the year betting nothing but favorites, it's impossible. See if you knew ANYTHING about stuff like this you would get it, but I guess big bro forgot to tell you about it, he was too busy framing his pictures with all of the horses you guys LOVE to tout Mr. Agenda.
I don't bet all favorites. I handicapped the card and the favorites in every race today are where the value is. Every single race.

I'm with ya DaHoss. There will be plenty like Nos betting today like they think they have the "key"...bet all chalk.
I have no problem taking their "safe" money.
Good luck!

Hey, by tonight, if we see that Sweet September, Drizzly, Egyptian King, Balletto, Argentina, War Front and one of the Hirsch imports all win, we'll say they all were legitimate plays.. and NONE will be favorites. That's why they run the races!

Gotta to get in the shower and get back to BEL!

Enjoy all.. Best o' luck!

Pretty good. Henny just won. I just need English Channel and Bernardini for my pick 6 though but it has to pay more than $160 for me to even make a profit. Throw in the lunch Oracle now owes me and it has been a good day.

I won $800 today. Get a life. A pick 6, a grandslam, and I KILLED the 1-1-1 late pick 3. Destroyed it. 250X.

Sit down baby. I own you and you lover Oracle.

I love Henny, EC, and Bernardini.

Sit down poorboy. When you have money, you can bet big. Who cares how I got it, the point is I have it.

Thanks for your money today DaHoss. Much appreciated.

Well I added it up. For 10 $2 bets, you get back $21.70.

Congratulations.

At $5 a race wagered, you can live it up ordering off the Value Menu.

That's for sure. But don't try the Value Menu unless you bring the coupons . . . or drink water.

Somebody should do the right thing and turn Belmont into a harness track.

lol. this troll didn't do anything other than, at most, bet $5 on each of his chalky picks.

He's a kid and a stupid one at that, fooling only himself.

Add it up and I actually think he lost a couple bucks for the day.
