Today's bum report has an interesting quandry, as Silver Sunrise in the first at Arlington ran coupled with another horse, who was clearly the better half of the entry as they went off at 7-2. Seeing how if the entry had won, anyone betting the bums would have cashed, I'm going to include it in the total. The entrymate finished 2nd and the bum was a well-beaten 6th. So the bums were involved with $9,044 in failed win wagers ($2,710 if you don't include the entry) which brings the grand total to $439,579.

Enjoy your time off, I'm sure this seemed a lot easier when it was just talk as opposed to doing all the actual legwork to make it happen.

29 horses ran today -- all of them got dusted.

In the 10th race at Suffolk -- one of the bums finished dead last beaten 38 lengths at odds of 18.30

The winner of that race went off at odds of 18.50 -- that's happened a few other times so far as well. An eventual winner going off at longer odds than a bum list horse in the same race.

458 down, only 542 more to go.

Based on what?

You know next to nothing about me.

There are probably only a few people on here who can do it, that's for sure, but given the motivation, I could do this.

14 of them ran today, all lost, but one horse provided a huge scare.





This horse looked like the proverbial free bingo square.

She had no trip excuses at all in those first two races...she simply just broke a bit slow, ran very, very slow early, very, very slow middle, and very very slow late.

Maybe they stiffed this horse in those first two races and bet it today -- I don't know. Either way...what looked like an ultimate gimmie on paper almost blew this up while finishing 2nd beaten 0.75 lengths.

Her big prior performance coming when she was beaten just 44.5 lengths in a 7f race run in a sparkling 1:27.80 ... the next time I see a horse with a form like that owned by someone called "Tonys Investments" -- I will pass. Even the owners name was shady on that one.


472 down, only 528 more to go.
