Do I get a complimentary wallet photo of Clyde for picking the horsey who finished fastest in the sprint?

Bourbon Courage came up short to hit the board, but that run was awesome!

Sure. We have several thousand we've been unable to give away.

Not happy Bayern did not get taken down. Thought Shared Belief ran the best after getting slammed and blocked. He's one tough SOB. Since I am the moderator of this contest, I award $25 to anyone that picked him to win.

I love you.

Didn't have a dime on Shared Belief (I bet Cigar Street) but would have been cheering for him if he won. He ran the best race, showed his toughness and lost nothing in defeat.
This is another example (the drug problem with slaps on the wrists for punishment is another) of why I bet only small amounts.

How about $5 for those who bet a horse who had no shot in that merry-go-round. (Even if Bayern pushed the other kids getting on.)

STEVIE ALL:


Well, ya know....every year we arrive at this juncture and I introduce the Breeders' Cup invocation. The Cup offers unique opportunities with chances to be rewarded for creative thinking and audacious risk-taking; mainly-----bet the chalk and munch to to your delight. Some will come away delighted and some ....will kill the first person we see,but all should approach these races as the curious and challenging bullsh.it puzzles they've become. No matter how well you 'handicap' the races, fields this deep and mysterious will produce several nearly unforeseeable results....in your dreams, maybe. Remember that you could be taking an '0-fer' going into Saturday's finale and sink even deeper into the abyss in the 2:02.0 it takes to run Saturday's Classic. But no matter how the ledger looks when it's over, appreciate that your ability as a horseplayer won't be defined over the course of 2 days. Spend as freely as you can afford, get a little lucky, and here's hoping that everyone nets something that fills their account and makes them proud.( God,they're not going to buy this condescending drivel)

It's again been a pleasure trying to bring the flavor of the Cup to everyone listening and I hope there was something offered that you can convert into winning tickets. Thanks to Santa Anita, ATR's sponsors and everyone who contributed so generously to the shows.. Best of luck this weekend!

I do,however,hate my Tooth Fairy.

The Easter Bunny being a close second.
