Apparently the points haven't been pounded on enough to sink in where they belong .

That is quite a toolbox you have yourself, Josephine .

Like I said, comedy clearly isn't your forte. Stick to not betting and being pretentious. That's always a solid combo.

You already said that ... But the joke's on you .

You have no idea whether I bet or not--as if betting is a virtue and not betting excludes me from some club ......

Pretention and betting are NOT mutually exclusive--there are numerous examples right here .

True, but it probably beats MY combination of betting poorly and being pretentious.

I'd settle for half of that.

And only one person has talked about the race. I'd like to know if anyone thinks there is a good play underneath. I think it looks chalky with the 1 and 2 filling out the tri only because they have the best recent form. Races with overwhelming favorites can produce longshots underneath but this race is loaded with front end types. It's difficult to project which horses will attempt to come from off of the pace and which ones are capable of doing so.

Great research--and no I do not bet anymore on horses--not in the last five years. There is no mandate that one can not have an opinion on a horse without backing it up at the windows, even though you suppose it is true .

Are you fixing to bet me on something ???

I have backed it up at the window in the past, and I have gambled OUTSIDE of horseracing to the present--not that it is any of your business...

I do not consider gambling some big virtue, but I have gambled up to 5,000 bucks and the keys to my TVR--won both .

No big deal .

The very nature of my business is a gamble, and my return over 15 years is 300 percent, as is my lifetime return on playing the ponies from the day I put my allowance on Tim Tam in grade school .

Now piss off..
