i had the same thought about it carrying over to tomorrow , I figured it would be because a 50-1 shot would win one of the races . Sometimes I think it is fixed seems to be alot of carryovers when you have a big weekend of races coming up. Oh well back to the drawing board.

I am cool with it....Hell, I was going to play one ticket all day, a $200 pick three HH/EC/Bern and take my 5/2 on it. Now, I play a pick six 10x5x2x1x1x1 and I get tons better value on that pick three I was going to wager on

THANK YOU NYRA, I LOVE YOU

What is even crazier is that Martin's horse in the 5th tomorrow looks like the nuts already also, you might be able to turn $24 to $48 into 5k tomorrow, relatively easy.....

For what it's worth my previous explanation was inaccurate. It was a decision by NYRA, for better or worse, that because some people couldn't see the odds, and the first leg did have many first time starters and first time turfers, that a lot of people would be betting at a disadvantage. The handle on the first three races was apparently down 50% so they decided to make the decision they did. It's not a decision I agree with, and I say that after I would have been knocked out in the third leg, but that was the reasoning nonetheless.

Thanks for the explanation Andy. I wasnt playing a thing today, so its actually a good thing I can get involved in the Pick 6 carryover tomorrow. Looks like a small payout but one a small time player like myslef can have a decent chance at.

Nice call on Legs Benedict by the way.

a $200 pick three HH/EC/Bern

The only horse I think that wins out of that sequence is Bernardini.

I am most definetly singling EC and Bern, and if my balls are big enough when i am walking to the window, I will be singling HH also, given that I am switching tack with my wager, it might allow me to include silver train now, not sure....

I really dont see Henny winning tomorrow Scavs. I see the only 2 winners of that race being War Front or Silver Train.

Tim, please don't waste your money on War Front, I am telling you, no way he beats Silver Train, let alone Henny Hughes. Silver Train can beat HH, I will not argue with you there, but War Front, um no.....

if anyone is interested in seeing silver train try to defend his bc win AWAY from belmont, you better hope he wins tomorrow. dutrow is backing off his talk about the train not running into kentucky for the bcc.
