Default ROI Results 5/6 @ Churchill

For the most part Kentucky Derby Day at Churchill was a tough day at the windows. Those $200
stake days are a bear when you don't cash a ticket. 5 winning tickets were cashed but only Real
Quiet made money and was the only player to hit the board. Two exacta's in races 5 and 11 were
good enough for a nice profit of $406 on the day. Cal hit two pick 3's and just fell a little short of
profitability. Zippy had a nice exacta but it was the only ticket he cashed. If you want to know how
jockeys can get into trouble just watch Goodnight Olive in the 4th. Cal seemed to be one of the few
who liked Mage. Following are the really really unofficial results. It was challenging to score with
a two day card and at least two later scratches. If I missed something let me know and I'll correct
it. Next week provides us with a few nice stakes so I hope to see you wherever we wind up.



WIN... Real Quiet ... +$406.71... R 5 $25 ex key 7 w 2-5 $26.86 X 12.5... $335.75
R 11 $22 ex 5-7 $23.36 X 11... $256.96

Very nice plays RQ. Well done.

Funny thing was I changed my plays up a little in my real bets and got a whole $8 to the good back. Told my granddaughter about it and she said now I can buy a couple of Big Macs. I said it was good to know I wouldn't go hungry.

Any mea culpas or resolutions for how to play the Derby next year? Mine is that I have discovered that after a long time playing vertical plays to the exclusion of everything else, I actually like horizontal plays, but went overboard with them this year. So will try to be more balanced in my play in the future. Of course that will probably not work either since each year is unique and whatever works this year will probably not next year.

It's the daily double win for Real Quiet. It's double trouble for the rest of us.
Double clapping 👏 congrats on that Pete
