Breeder's Cup Heartbreaks

[munster705]

Does anyone have any heartbreaking losses?

I had a couple. I would have hit the late pick 4 if Goldikova gets it done. I also switched at the last second and bet Ruler on Ice instead of Drosselmeyer in the Classic.

If Perfect Shirl doenst win im signing tax forms on a pk 4 ticket

What do you think that late pick 4 on Saturday pays if Goldikova wins? I figure it is $1,500 or so for 50 cents even with her winning. Hansen beats Union Rags. You had to go pretty deep to have Drosselmeyer. O'Brien's horse in the Turf was 4th or 5th choice.

I needed Turallure to hit that PK4 on a $16 ticket. Would love to know what people think the .50c PK4 would have been?

The parlay for .50 is $32,842 but Turallure was on a lot of P4 plays.

I addressed this on air this morning and speculated that it would likely have been between $15k-$20k.

OMG! Can't wait to hear the replay this afternoon. I'm about sick over this one.

last years late pick 4 paid $3998 for .50 (i'll never forget...hehehe)..think $1500 would have been pretty low compared to last years sequence

went something like

FAVORITE (Goldikova)
50-1 shot
14-1 shot
Blame (second choice)

Did a story ever come out about the one ticket alive in the PK 6 going into the Classic, that only had Rattlesnake Bridge and Ruler on Ice covered?
(Unless I read the willpays incorrectly)

Seems like someone played a ticket with birthdays or anniversaries instead of common sense, if they got that far and had those 2 covered in the classic.

Eh...I'm sure they are crying about having 2 tickets for 5 of 6. Or not.

I know that one of them was a pick quick. Not sure about the other.
