Thanks Kev, good call maybe, but that second or two cost him the win and me a nice win bet and the late double 2nd at 7-1. Sometimes you win on the line, sometimes you don't; today I got beat that way (too)many times!!

I think it did cost him the win...he clearly pulled up a touch to wait for the rail to open. If he was able to move through without the hesitation, he most likely wins.

Tis the maddening part about racing....1 or 2 seconds are very precious..

can't think of feeling any more unfullfiled when you hit 3 of 4 and have 1st and 2nd choice going into the final leg.

i would rather lose by a nose with a 20-1 shot in the 1st leg and then go about by business, but no, they string you along until the last leg

f#ck it, im going 4+ in the final leg from now on, even if i have to single the first 3 legs
