I was alive to several horses in the Oaks / Woodford / derby Pick three and Oaks / derby double and figured I would feel like an idiot if one of my top selections finished second and I didn't collect a dime so I played an $1 exacta All / 6,11,16.

Don't get me wrong I'm happy as hell I cashed but I did pick Mine that Bird (see the bookend contest thread) to finish last so it is a "hollow victory" and you just don't get the same satisfying feeling as though you handicapped it well.
