Jerry,

the horse has seconditis. Is stretching out another furlong and drew the rail at Belmont. Plus coming off a career best. At 1/2 its not a bet, its a pass if you think he wins.

Prado's fault on this, he keep on looking at the rail and didn't see Gomez coming, IMO

Why would anyone that knows anything about betting horses put a "huge" win bet on a 1/2 shot? I learned my lesson a long time ago. It was the '78 Champagne and I put $100 to win on General Assemble at about 1/5 (don't remember the exact odds). Anyhow, this gray horse who went on to win the Derby and Preakness the next year went off at 5/2 and won easily

good question slewbopper. i'd rather bet a few bucks on a live shot than put a big bet on a 'sure thing' and go back and get 2.10 for every 2. or foam at the mouth at wasted money when they lose...

Seattle,
This kind of stuff isn't helping you get a grip on your stress management.
Bad words will get you 15 minutes in the confession booth.
Have you considered taking a break?

looks like seattle broke his piggy bank...perhaps you should start pretend betting with monopoly money. that way we could be spared your toddler temper tantrums since you wouldn't really lose anything.

It's so pointless to bet these odds-on favorites. If I like a horse that is going off at 1-2 odds like that horse, I would pass the race. There is no way you are going to make money over time betting on 1-2 shots. Even if you hit 6 out of every 10 of these bets, you would still lose money. It's a losing proposition.

maybe steve could make a 'seattles losing bets temper tantrum' room, and he could go there with these inane threads instead of polluting the paddock...

hey, we need a shovel in here! add this to the compost heap.
