If I remember what I wrote correctly, I had Lawyer Ron as my top choice, then SNS and then Barbaro. Oops.

ON fri I was on BCat and Barbaro. The more I capped I dropped Barbaro and used Sweetnorthern saint by post time. My future was Bcat I made it in the first future thinking I would never se the 12/1 again and coulda got better at post time. Proves that betting the race and not the capping is the important thing.

My two were Sweetnorthernsaint and Steppenwolfer. It was so wide open though that I really had no idea. The TC race that I was the most sure of was the Belmont.
After the Arkansas Derby I said....Steppenwolfer is definitely going to win the Belmont. I was confident he would from that moment until they reached the far turn in the race. I still don't understand why he didn't get up in that race. Oh well.

Had too many bets as usual, but the keys were SNS and Barbaro. Had Point Determined keyed on the backside, but not on top.

It was Brother Derek, but it changed to Barbaro 2 minutes later. BD just had another breeze the other day and they mentioned he might run before Del Mar closes.

I was definitely on Barbaro. I can't remember who my pick was for the Oaks, but I know it sure was not Lemons Forever!

I was at the derby and getting my ass handed to me all day and was down to my last $200 and took one look at Barbaro in the paddock and put all of the money on his head. The crowd went crazy trying to get to the loose money and I was arrested for public intoxication.
