How did you guys end up on the day?
 

I will be down probably $20 or so once my 7% kicks in from all my pinnacle wagers. (Scavs, thanks for putting me on this site over bodog.)

Wagered probably close to $600 on the day, so that makes me happy.

I tried a lot of crazy exotics hoping to hit a big payday but didn't hit anything better than a few exactas and winners (had Thor's Echo and Invasor)... I finally ended up $40 down after almost $400 in bets.

$40 for a day of entertainment - cheaper than going to the movies :D

Wagered $9 and lost it all. Not a smart bettor, so I keep it small.

+990 hit $1 tri on the Juvenile twice
+350 hit $1 tri on the Classic

+1340

-460 wagered= not a bad day :cool:

Hope everyone else did well!

PS...I hate Meisque's Approval...he cost me the late pick 4 ;)

Got the luckiest break on Baletto I've ever seen. Which allowed me to be up slightly on the day. Too lucky on that.

should have stopped after the 2 juvi races...or learned to be a smarter WPS bettor, as I had some great price horses that won but I only used them in exotcs. (losing exotics that is). I about broke even for the day. Up if I count the wager with Randall.

LOL, I hate you.

Shoulda taken Byk's pick in teh Juvy and Ouija Board, gone on hiatus and came back to hit the exacta in the Classic.

hate you too dear.:D

I put up goose-eggs all day and was down about $450 going in the classic.
Hit the tri and double in the classic and found myself right back were I started, $452 balance.

Sad part is that is one of my most succesful BC days, breaking even.

Yeah, I generally get my ass beat on BC day yet I keep going back for more. I was feeling GREAT after Street Sense but after the Mile, Distaff, Turf hits I was down buct came back to even thanks to boxing Invasor nd Dini

Started off well hitting Street Sense to win and alive in many pick three's only to be thrashed by my single on Henny Hughes. Miesques Approval saved me from taking a bath today and i actually won a little bit of money. Had the exacta in the distaff after Happy Ticket was put into second. I wanted to get a big score but it just didn't happen.

Lost about 300 but really thought only thor's echo was the only horse i didnt see at all coming in and miesques approval saved my day after I has 20 on him to win. Pick 4's i got smashed lost the 1st one on last leg and the last one I had mieques to start but didnt have round pond on the tick i had alive but did on backups but no miesques on them. argggggg. All in all a very fun day though.

Ha ha, just did the numbers. Bet 6550 on the day and got back 6915. Not great but I'll take it...Thank you stewards.

Have to subtract a hundred to Kev and 40 to Beth. Dammit.

Man I wish I had that much money to put down ;)

Live at home and win a contest. LOL.

Started out great, hitting the early pick three and a few other exotics. Then, when Hughes ran dead last, my day started to spiral down the toilet. Ended up dropping around $320. Would've gotten out and then some if my dude would've held off Invasor..

Hit Maryfield in the 1st to win

Hit Octave and CQ on a place parlay(love BC day the place and show pay offs are as good as hitting these horse as a winner any other time.)

Saw the rail bias and played Thor's Echo to place and Round pond to win.

Tanked on T.H. Approval and my pick 3s all day.

Came home with alittle money to the good and played with other peoples money. Can't wait till next year.

Lost about $4....could have been much more sweet had I not singled Bernardini over Invasor, Premium Tap and Giacomo in my exacta and tri. Coulda, woulda, shoulda..........

sounds like a good capped day by you. I need to learn to use the place bet a bit more often, that would help elimate alot of my losses, especially on days like these. I picked up on the rail bias but didnt think Thor could run that great again, that screwed me. p3s put me down for most of the day as well, but the Ouija Board one was a decent payout.

I have been running second for the last 6 weeks and it gets old not cashing a ticket. I played Thors Echo last time out at Oaktree. The stretch at Oaktree was like running in quick sand for most of the meet and he close ground to Bordonado. Give him the rail and he's been training on Cushion track (which seems to get a horse alittle tighter than training on dirt) It was easy to play.

huge win bet on Quija Board, and 200 to win on Miesques A, along with a 2 dollar tri.

I ended up doing well for the day because of those hits, but I lost heavily on Circular Quay, Bernie, and Scorpion. And none of my pk3s 4s hit

Nice call on Miesques Approval, I didn't like him at all. Did you play him over all in the tri?

Up. But I blew my win in the Sprint with Thors Echo. That was my reach. Thought I really had something with Spun Sugar. Boy I was so wrong. But I set up one little wager and one big wager on longshots and hit the little one.

I hate being so dead wrong on the one I thought I had something. Thought this might be the year I punched it really big... For me anyway. (Head down kicks dirt)

Hit the nice pick 3 early and unloaded on Ouija Board, but the Turf cost me a fine Pick 3 with Round Pond and Invasor on the outside.

I hit the Dreaming of Anna/Street Sense/Ouija Board Pick three for $3, and wouldn't you believe I still had to go to the ATM twice.

I only played the sprint and distaff....keyed tri's, had all of the horses in the Sprint..but missed my key... Keyed Pine Island in the Distaff... So, a big goose egg for me on the greatest day in racing... Thanks for asking!!

Ez

I totally agree, I loved seeing SS at those odds, made her a part of a ton of p3s,exactas,tris and a big win bet. oh well, at least we took a shot at it.

How Did I Do Today
 

This actually was one of my better days if I was a betting man. Only got to watch the Classic due to work 2 intil 2 and going to the ER after work with the wife, but here are my results:


1 Winner Ouija Board

4 Places

1 Show

2 Out of the Money

Not the greatest, but not the worst either.

Came out ahead thanks to Miesque's Approval and Nightmare Affair.

Lost about $300, only got the exacta in the Juv Fillies and the Classic. Had Thor's Echo over Bordonaro in the exacta but unfortunately Bordonaro tired at the end. I had Invasor/Bernardini/ in the top two spots of the tri and super with Giacomo and three other horses under them but unfortunately not Premium Tap who is a horse I like a lot. Other than that I didn't even have any near misses.

a lot on my losers and a little on my winners
 

In the past I had done better on the turf than the dirt
this year I hit either the win or exacta on every race on the dirt.
Got the trifecta on the Juv Colts. Gee, all you had to do was box the Keeneland horses. I was nervous about my pick when everyone under the sun had Street Sense as their pick.

the silliest thing I did was bet Bother Derek simply because EVERY BC dirt race to that point had been won by the #1

at the end of the day I was up but could only wonder why I didn' bet a Superfecta here and a exacta there.

I'm just a $2 bettor and $900+ is a good day for me

Played pick 3's for all BC races ... the only race missed was Miesque's Approval, so that killed 3 of the Pick 3's (had to put all of my bets in before the first post because it was so crowded at Churchill)... that horse was one of my last throwouts and it cost me a ton .... still made some $$$ on the day but it could have been a huge one. Thanks to Mr. Byk for his analysis. Was at Churchill for the day and it was just an awesome experience !!!

cashed one ticket, Miesque's Approval, had a nice win bet

only ticket I cashed, I got smacked around like nobody's business:(

thank god I didn't take a bank card to Kentucky

Bet a grand total of $16.00 (tri with Ouija, FM and... Wait a While, pbbbt...), and then some $2.00 wins, but I picked Round Pond, so I actually came out ahead. A whole $13.00 profit. I'll have to be careful not to spend it all in one place. :)

Still, better than I've done all year! Oy...

looks like lunch is on you genuine!!

And when they say, "Do you want fries with that?" you say, "Yes, please!"

Hee hee hee hee.

dreaming of anna cost me the first pick 3. hit the exacta in R5. nothing after that. finished down $100.

Lost my shirt...and pants.

To all you winners please spend my money more wisely than me.

Enjoy!
