I have had a few good ones, but not reversing Slew O' Gold with Wild Again in 1984 still stings. These were my best: !992 big win bet on A.P. Indy in the Classic and win bet in the Sprint on longshot Thirty Slews; a reversed exact of Spain over Surfside in the Distaff ; Vindication for a lot in the Juvenile in 2002; Stevie last year in the Juvy and Silver Train in the Sprint. My husband hit both times with his favorite...TIZNOW!

i had a rough run of luck last year, though gorella in the mile showing got me a bunch of the money i lost back as i went after her in the show pool pretty hard.

the year in texas was the best for me -- hit lots of win tickets, had a ouija board/film maker/all trifecta -- and the saddest part of the day was having win bets on the last four winners of the day -- which i believe were ouija board, wilko, better talk now, and ghostzapper. and did not play the pick-4 which returned somewhere around $25,000 i think for $1.

wanted to die

EDIT: there was totally just a post here saying that the p4 returned far less than i had said....and now it's gone. cute.


according to equibase, when i just looked it up now the $1 pick-4 returned $23,395.60, which sounds closer to what i remember it being.

It was me. I was mistaken. Do you remember what else I wrote? I promoted this guy http://www.tripanalysis.com/?selectedPageId=1 who won the bet
