Arlington Million Day Recap

Bogey · #1 08-12-2007, 08:21 PM

Scav, it was a pleasure to meet you as well and I'm looking forward to the next time when it's not Amatuer Day. My Million Day was very similar to yours in the fact I ended up in the red while being so close. My biggest bet was a win bet on Irridescence and yelled at her at the 8th poll "You held off Ouija Board." The 3 Grade 1's were awesome. I saw Shamdinan in the paddock and he was by far the best looker in the Secretariat.

I am in the DRF/NTRA Handicapping Contest on September 9th. You should get in. Belmont/Calder/Turfway/Arlington (mandatory 6 races from Arl). Should be right up mine and other Arlington players, if I am not top 10 I will be disappointed

i played the last 6 races and cashed NO tickets. played the late pick 3, with a $27 ticket. had the winner in the 7th and finished second in the 8th and 9th races, typical of the rest of the day.

Yes, it's true -- even with that happening, mostly because the

NATIONAL

FOOTBALL

LEAGUE

does not give me a chance to get PAID.

woops -- it's the 8th, per scav. but at least i had my convictions in the right place.

ps -- Scav

How about Lovango?! Cuts back to 7f on the poly against an easier crew, looks like he's about to throw in the towel, and explodes to win by 8 in track record time on a day when the main track times weren't out of this world.

I was very impressed.

It is actually September 8th, MY BAD!!

I actually bought a simucast seat for $3 today for September 8th so I can have my own TV and still be in the general area, but away from the chaos.
