Reduce your bets(don't raise them.) Obviously, suggesting horses like patches doesn't help you...LOL.....OMG....I got a plan. I'm losing, but I ain't losing much. When I do better, then it will actually matter(instead of just replacing money I lost.)

Was a bit blown away by your post. It takes some inventive handicapping to predict that 5yo Patch of Blue would run any differently than he did.

Will agree that plodders have a better chance at eight panels than nine but playing a plodder with the rail up is seldom good business.

The winner is a graded stakeswinner who had twice run huge seconds in this class and needed his last, when given the race. It was a hard race, but a logical sequence and would not have replied if we had not posted a prerace opinion.

Mandella is a good off the shelf trainer because of his stock. No hard feelings. bbb

Well, at least we now know the secret to your pretentious usage of the word " we "......you clearly have another member of your supposed team posting here.....as YOU didn't post anything close to a prerace opinion.

Good to see you here again Andy...hope Morte is close behind.

His last win was with those rails out. He had great position yesterday. He easily wins if he just finishes, but he hung badly. There wasn't action on him. So, I shouldn't be surprised he hung. That was the biggest issue against him(no action.)

BTW

Glad to see you up and about again. As a reminder, again, we post at the forum of the sequence we bet. This was at the California site dmtc.com/forums or something close, then racing picks. Betting that you are not interested in our plays, and do not blame you, but under the main forum we posted our annual essay on how the turf rail affects race dynamics. We hear its an egregious hole in your game and perusing some of your opinions, sadly, confirms that theory. The quiz at the end of the post should enlighten you.

You can probably fool a good many here, but selecting half the field in any given race, then if any of those win, state you gave out the winner, is not our style. Nevertheless you posted here, this thread, about an across the board play on a hopeless loser, an exacta and trifecta box. Can you please explain the math that led you to the conclusion that you posted a winner on that race?

Scuds or Scav, we forget as well. The best plodder story we recall goes back some thirty years or so. We spent the Thursday before the Kentucky Derby giving Eddie Maple a tour of Claiborne farm. He would ride Laser Light and after two hundred probing questions guaranteed that colt would run huge and be on the board. Nevertheless some two dozen farm workers gave us money to bet on Gato Del Sol, Arthurs horse, who we described as a plodder,............................ We got to the farm at midnight or so derby night and had a van full of money. The day after was filled with absenteeism never seen before or since at Claiborne. BBB

Essay?

Michael,

I really have no interest in a predictably nasty exchange, but have to say that your contributions at my site are consistently disappointing. You offer nothing in terms of any regular friendly interaction on the topics at hand with the vast majority of members here, but yet feel free to belittle them while lauding some largely invisible horseplaying superiority.

Since I know your background and imagine you could be a valuable and insightful contributor here, I find the way in which you conduct yourself especially sad. No matter the level of wagering acumen or accomplishment of those in this community, they all possess a far greater winning approach to the game and life than you in that they share their thoughts openly and without expectation of reward other than mutual respect and camaraderie.

You're not welcome here.

We like the confirmation almost as much as we are amused by those that don't immediately see right through you. Those posters are, of course, few and far between.

As for our interest in turf rail placement being an " egregious " hole in our game......unlike you ( or is it yous? ) we acknowledge that we don't know everything about the game. Unlike yous, we are constantly trying to learn and improve our play as much as we can. Perhaps that is one of the reasons that we are the handicapping voice of one of the biggest racing circuits in the world and yous are still trying to BS people on the internet.

Congratulations on apparently finally posting a winner on one of the many message boards you haunt. You know what they say, if you give a million monkeys typewriters, they will eventually reproduce the complete works of Shakespeare.

LOL

Fine work, sirs.

Between a Walter Mitty refernce, between BTW's response to Legend in his own mind and Kasept to the rescue, Inauguration Day or not, I now know why 2 million people gatherred on the National Mall to cheer:

Free at last, Free at last, Thank God Almighty, we are Free at last!
