So let me get this straight, moneybags. You are on here bragging to the world how smart you are for stealing that 3-1 out from underneath everyone? Nobody on here complained about the Gazelle, which was clearly a decent betting race with an easy toss like SB. Amazing. Keep playing, PLEASE.

thats not the point. the point is people bitch before they even see odds on the board. thats why i said what i said. its not bragging(well maybe it was,sorry). i wait to see where the money goes to decide if its a bad bet. which is valid handicapping. to complain days ahead of the race is crazy because the odds are a pari mutual. people vote with their money. you won't see value til the moneys down . thats the point. by the way i've been playing for over thirty years and winning. not many can say that. if someone did not come on here crapping on the races before they went off, i would not of written that ! the fact is, in big races, the "hyped" horses get overbet. both of those races were proof of it! it was not a major score but i saw it as easy pickings when the value was weighed in a short field. if you think i don't know what i'm doing fine. judge the races days ahead of the "REAL" odds and see how far it gets you. i feel denagrating a race way ahead of time is missing opportunities.
