5 horses deep in the 11th...

hopefully it still pays something


I figure a lot of people used Rachel as the single as soon as they heard of the guaranteed pick 4 pool. So it may or may not be a worthwhile gamble

Regardless, you are going to get paid somehow. Did you play it on youbet? They had a promotion of a 10,000 dollar bonus divided amongst all those that hit the pimlico pick 4. I figure that to pay 50 cents each. LOL!

More Derby-Preakness trivia...

# of horses finishing in the money in the Preakness that didn't run in the Derby:

1998: 1 (Classsic Cat finished 3rd in the Preakness)
1999: 1 (Badge, 3rd)
Top 2 in Derby finished 1-2 in the Preakness in those 2 years

2000: 1 (Red Bullet, Won)
2001: None
2002: 1 (Magic Weisner, 2nd)
2003: 1 (Midway Road, 2nd)
2004: 2 (Rock Hard Ten, 2nd and Eddington 3rd...Smarty won by 11+)
2005: 1 (Scrappy T, 2nd)
2006: 2 (Bernardini Won and Hemingway's Key 3rd)
2007: None
2008: 2 (Macho Again, 2nd and Ichabad Crane 3rd)

I am hoping only 1 finishes the in money this year, and that it is RA, preferably not 1st.

preakness gotta be more formful than the Derby was this year.
Both of the big name newcomers will be up on the pace so likely one falters.
