I cashed 6 of the first 9 exactas on the card and was still down about $30 because I couldn't hit a tri.

Did the same thing I always do in the Derby - I bet scared. I always play way too many tri's and bet horses that I'm scared to leave out instead of focusing on the ones I think have the best shot. No way I'm going to let Edgar, Dominguez, or Desormeaux beat me out of a tri since they are/were MD jocks. And because I played their horses, even though I didn't think they had a shot, it cut into the profits that Mario running second brought me.

I hit the pick 3 for about $450 dollars on races 8-9-10. I also cashed on the 5ht race. But I wagered $1025 and only got back half of that. Over Oaks and Derby day I lost $324.00. If it wasnt for Oaks day I would have got creemed. But I did very Ok if you count Thursday. If you do that, I am up around $1400.

If this thread had been titled "who ALMOST cashed big today", then I would have much to write Three out of 4 on every pick 4, 2 out of 3 on every pick 3.. thousands of dollars slipped through my fingers.
