Very interesting story. Very sad indeed, Harness is tricky anyways. Later on that night, I was thinking about how sad it was that a horse broke down, I guess I got a little selfish around that time. I'm still mad at what Los Al did, I think they should be investigated. They've fixed a few photo's in the past before also. I need to stop betting that track.

Aside from the fixing part, I just flat out do not enjoy betting the quarter horses. I'm really minimally motivated to even pretend to what to spend time handicapping them.


Don't get me wrong, I enjoy watching quarter horse races if that's all there is to see. But, not to bet on them.

I have bet on NASCAR on a few occasions. I nailed the Kevin Harvick win at Daytona at about 17-1 earlier this year. So it's not like I'm a betting snob, or anything!

(I doubt there are any NASCAR fans here, but you should have heard me on that last lap!)

I agree, Quarter horses aren't my favorite, but the way my schedule works, sometimes I can't make it out to the track until nightime. The race was actually a 4 and a half furlong tb race, but I get what you mean.

Adding one more thing, I heard that you can beat a sort of exacta/trifecta type thing with Nascar? is that true? I wouldn't, but i'm just curious.
