|   Bad spill in 2nd races - couple horses and their jockeys went down.  I don't have any other details.  Not at track - saw it on tv.  Looked pretty bad.

|   3 horse opens at 9/5. Could be in big trouble? |

|   And instead of betting the 3 to win as a cover I bet a $40 exacta 3/8 to get a bigger kick in the head. |

 Nice run at it though. One question, what made you like the 8 in the last so much in the last leg, enough to single him in the sequance?

|   Margolis's stats for 2nd starts(29%) & MSW to MCL((31%) and Beyer that towered over field. Who knew the 3 was so alive until the board opened. That is the problem betting P4 with a maiden race in the sequence. |

|   Guess who i singled in the late P4. Yet another beat in the last 10 yds for a single. That will be 5 in a row  |

|   Handicapping question to myself: David why do you constantly waste money on pk 4s when you can't even hit a pk 3? Answer: I guess I'm just plain stupid.

|   Because we are all greedy looking for the big payoff. Meantime if I had just boxed my horses in the 2nd I would be looking at a $1,381 tri and a $4,463 super.Instead I am waiting to get beat by a first timer. Up for the meet with a couple of nice P4 hits but I am sure I would have been better off investing my P4 and P6 money in other ways. |
