least favorites were all the tragic breakdowns....especially go for wand and landseer.

I've wagered on three Cups.. '03-'05.
'03 - Bad day, and even worse when I saw Pleasantly Perfect (who I liked) win the Classic without a dime on him.. '04 - Mediocre day, could've been a lot better.. Hit a win bet on Singletary, but Kitten's Joy cost me a double I would've had 80 times and Speightstown beat me out of the early Pick Four (I had Kela, who it was paying $1,100+ to). Chickened out of making a big win bet on Ghostzapper, and that cost me. '05 - An absolute massacre. Didn't cash a ticket all day. It took me a while to recover from that..

Well,I don't know how the worst can not be the one where Santos won the Classic.I think the last good ride I got from this guy was on Manila,but when he has zero pressure on him,he can once in a while turn lead into gold.Seems like the rest of the card was pretty difficult too.Gee,who could predict that they would get weather in Chicago like that.
The best one for me will always be the one at Woodbine(the one when Corey and Lit de Justice came flying home.) One of Lit's kids came oh so close to paying 50-1 at Anita in the 1st race Saturday.The horse's 1st race at Fairplex was really bad(a football field behind the leader.)The dam had put out like 4 or 5 multiple winning horses though,and sure enough the horse showed up with speed at Anita on Saturday..........."Steal Justice"...damn near stole it at 54-1.

03 santa anita- One of my best days at the track. Six perfections going off at 5-1? How Islington wasnt odds on is beyond me and that they let her go off at 3-1 and key a 1600 all euro tri really has to be the all time bc gift.
00 churchill downs- Kalinisi, perfect sting and giants causeway across the board paid for my trip. Wheeling GC front and back wasnt a bad deal either. Worst: 2005 belmont- was terrible. Didnt hit a race all day.

THE BC wagering-wise has never been kind to me. I hit a WP bet on Singletary, but that's about the extent of my winnings lol. I'm cold as hell on that day. But I keep comin back for more lol.
From a fan stand-point, watching Tiznow and Sakhee hook up in the stretch in '01 has to be my favorite. My least favorite was watching Abbondanza (my 40-1 WP bomb) jump out to a decent lead in the BC sprint (and he was alone on it) setting suicidal fractions, and fading to practically last lol. Speightstown... the 2-1 bomb lol... blew right by him, ans did 10 others. I thought i was flirting with an atomic bomb for a minute there- the problem is, the race was run in 1:09 lol.

best breeders cup? hard to say, they're all good! worst are the ones that all the horses don't come back safe. some of my fave performances....personal ensigns win was a race for the ages. and then she tops it off with her daughter and granddaughter(storm flags best ever race, a gutty effort) both being bc champs. also tiznows wins, i think i liked his second win better.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that crashed and burned in 2005. Didn't hit anything all day other than Shirrocco, and couldn't hook that one up with anyone in the exotics.
Favorite was 2000. Tiznow's first...also had Kona Gold's track record, War Chant in the Mile, and a $900+ trifecta in the Juvenile.
