i've also been enjoying your chronicaling of your kent d. vs. channing hill mistake. how many times has something like that happened to me. i feel the same way about larry sterling jr in chicago -- how many times have my friends or i been LSJ-ed at the track as if he singlehandedly stole your money? I can't even begin to count.

Happened again in the last race yesterday, on the phone with a friend who was driving and wanted to get the call of the last race at the Big A as he played the same play as me in the pik-3. Went 7 deep because we were against the fave Bronxdale and I thought the race was a chaos race.
On the turn for home you could see it was down to two horses, Bonds horse and the longest payout we had who was the 12 Pat kelly's horse who was paying 154 for every buck in the pik-3. We used Bond only on mud breeding but his two year record with firsters before yesterday was 2%, I **** you not. So they are on the turn and I'm calling the race for my friend and say excitedly " YES!! here comes Kelly's horse, the longest one we have!!!!! and Bond's horse HAS TO QUIT!! he never wins with firsters!!! About two seconds later Bond's horse kicks away, followed by a cursing and swearing fit in stereo by both of us.

I know you find it hard to believe, but i swore when the horse trained by the guy who was 2% with firsters over two years kicked away from the best payout. Actually it was more a fit about sloped foreheads and crossed eyes.

My landlord and I share a house, I have the upstairs with a private entrance that was built in, and she lives downstairs. Shes my age, a teacher at Shenendehowa. Floors are just regular floors,not real thick, its a house not an apartment building.
When I first moved in she heard a few cursing fits and called me up and askewd if things were ok, I laughed and said fine and explained about watching races and such. She'll hear a yahoo once in a while and call up and say shes raising the rent.

your crudeness at it's best.

the best day I had at Arlington was getting LSJ'ed twice in one day, and I suppose you could have said three times.

1.He ran his horse up into the back of another instead of around when his horse was clearly about 4 lengths the best and had about 3 paths worth of room to the outside to switch into, then claimed foul, and got laughed at by everyone within my earshot.
2.Later he was DQ'ed aboard a roughly 6 length winner for being a jackass 3/8 out.
3.And even later, rode another terrible race and should have been DQ'ed but somehow by the grace of racing gods was not. He literally nearly knocked the horse inside him over the rail at about the sixteenth pole. It was the most obvious DQ I have likely ever seen that somehow didn't get taken down.

All in a day's work for LSJ I suppose -- though then again who's the dumbass? I had his horse in all three of those
