Crushed the Derby. Top choice won... 2 of my top 4 ran 2nd and 3rd. Had a very hectic day and got to CD when they were going to the gate for the 8th. Would have had the tri there. Played the pick 3 into the Derby, singled that rat Court Vision because of his soft turf form ALL/3/2,4,20. Of course he gets beat a head. Would have had to go pretty deep to get to General Quarters, though. Wasn't impossible but certainly tough.

If I had dough to actually bet out at this Derby... would have been a life changing score... but I can't complain.

It's no secret.

I completely sucked yesterday.

Had Ms. Buttercup in the Eight Belles (I'm not redboarding... I said something about her days before the race somewhere) but I only played her cause AJ has been on her since her first race.

So glad I finally decided to be smart and not sentimental and give up on General Quarters.

lost but much better then it could have been.
Hit the oaks/woodford/derby pick 3 for a $1.
Hit the oaks/derby double for 10$
hit 3 of 4 in every pick 4
all my win bets ran 2nd or third

It was just one of those weekends. Evening jewel being photoed out, cost me a great deal of money....
