My "better half" called me a fibber, because I said I wouldn't play from 6/19 til opening day.

About six months ago, back when "He Who Must Not Be Named" (i.e., Oracle) was still here, I started a thread on a topic close to this one. Some interesting thoughts were expressed:

I've been cold lately, too - feel like I could "tri-box-all" an Australian field of 14 2-year-olds and still lose.

At first I wondered if it was only the three-year-old races (as they often take huge jump-ups in ability during the summer), but nah, it's everything. I'm still handicapping the same. It's not synthetic surfaces. Didn't go through a summer slump last year, so don't know, but yeah, I've noticed a difference in my bottom line ....
