Santa Anita Surface for the BC

[GPK]

I actually enjoyed watching and wagering on the BC this past weekend TONS more than I originally anticipated I would. The main thing that I was intent on was not to change my wagering strategy. 80-85% of my plays on normal days are horizontal, so I stuck with that

On the plane back I was looking at the results and my losing tickets, I noticed that about 80% of my losing tickets were vertical, I was betting $12 to win $15-$20, bad bad Tom.....Vertical is NOW GONE from my wagering arsenal, unless I like a horse that is 10/1 or better.

See...thats me too. I spent some some stupid $20 win bets chasing some N2L turf sprinters at Belmont

I am opposite. Pick 4's killed me yet again. I found my share of short priced winners though.

Over the 2 days, I played 4 different pick 4 tickets, and didn't hit any of them. I have found that the pick 3 works best for my preferred wagering strategy.

Eventhough I thought 14 races were a little much (dont think they need marathon, dirt mile and turf sprint), I really didnt mind Friday being "Ladies Day" as much as I thought I would...

I think if you think you have some singles, then you can construct some good horizontal bets, but you have to take a stand. Luckily I used Stardom Bound, Zenyatta, Midnight Luke as 3 key singles over the two days and made out OK in pick threes.

I wonder why

I probably would have been doing that also but there was no OUT OF STATE simulcasting available, could only bet Oak Tree and Golden Gate, and I can PROUDLY say I placed ZERO DOLLARS at Golden Gate.
