I don't know if the trouble was that pronounced, though the horse certainly wasn't asked late. But, it seems as if Edgar Prado has made quite a habit lately of getting squeezed on the rail going into the turn. I realize that many of the jocks down in Florida (and generally) are idiots and don't think twice about coming in on the turn and pinching the inside horse BUT I'd except someone who has been riding as long as Prado has to be aware of, and compensate for, this.
It's obvious the stewards will never take action and put an end to this, until, I suppose, someone is killed as a result of it.

Dang. I had Allaboutmack to complete contest pk6 at BigA. Was it close?

Nick and Pat. Nice job on 5 for 6. I had a little ticket structure issue today.

Thanks. Unfortunately consos didn't get me quite even. Think Nick, just cleared breakeven.

Thought of bringing in Allaboutmack was fun though. He is definitely one of those guys I have been following for a LONG time for no real good reason.

Contests threads are definitely the place to work out the structure kinks out and practice.

Thanks, Heels. Knew that last was tough. Nice job in sticking that 8 in the last on your tickets. And Pmac, I knew you have been an Allaboutmack fan for awhile, he put in a nice effort today. Almost!

Obviously it wasn't easy to hit, but after looking at the prices of the winners, it's very surprising to me that it paid 174K.. I mean the winners paid:

Race 4) $5.40 (8/5)
Race 5) $7.30 (5/2)
Race 6) $8.70 (3/1)
Race 7) $6.70 (2/1)
Race 8) $8.60 (3/1)
Race 9) $23.80 (10/1)


Every winner EXCEPT the Absolute Return in the last (the highest price winner), paid less than its morning line odds. Of course, beating some big favorites (like mackinaw) makes a big difference too. Still... dang!

[pmacdaddy]

Agree. Parlay was $14,700 so payout was well over 10X!!!

My guess is there were a ton of singles on Contessa in the 5th. Also maybe not the same level of real big budget players because it was "only" a single carryover?

Not a cinch to get all those on the same ticket, but by no means impossible.

Kind of makes you rethink just waiting for the mega carryovers to play...
