It was my idea, so I’m not complaining, but it means a lot of other horses I liked didn’t make the cut. All in all it was a fun meet. Probably not going to show a profit but didn’t disgrace myself either. I’ll have a better recap in a few days.

Day 39
Best bet- Race 9-#2 Emaraaty
Longshot-Race 11-#3 Impunity

Very fitting way to end the meet. Qurbaan, a horse I bet the last 4 times he ran won the Baruch and my best bet Emaraaty did little running to finish 4th. Longshot Impunity ran well at nearly 15-1 to run 2nd in the finale, but was unable to reel in another longshot, paying $12.20 to place. A win would’ve got me ahead in here for the meet, oh well. Fun meet, if I decide to do something similar next year I might tweet it up a little.
