I lost today

I'm not betting favorites on BC day

yeah, lost but it's not enough to bother me and I'm not giving vague advice and coming back to crow about it

Same BC BS year after year.....

They just refuse to do anything to help the player follow the races on TV or at the tracks getting simulcast. The weirdest thing of the day was hearing Todd TVG on the voice via youbet's feed.

The best day of racing is spoiled by the lack of adequate technology which has become the industry the other 364 days a year....yeah I know you can follow the silks but why should you have to work so damn hard to watch a race....

I lose? Actually no, I won today. A LOT.

On an American horse.

While the CALRACING web stream was just what the doctor ordered,

it seems that they're NOT showing the REPLAYS of the BC races on their site.

Beautiful.

Amen to that


yes, next thing they will try is the XFL camera angle where they zoom in so tight you won't have any idea where the horses are anywhere.. shoot. I am afraid I just gave some a brilliant suggestion. I can hear it now... "lets do like they did for that movie Seabiscuit"

I'm not crowing and said nothing about betting favorites, and just anwsered your reply on thread. This is a blog and people are going to give opinions, seems like alot of bloggers just want to condemed make fun of and put words in others posts. actually i did't do so hot myself today.

I just watched the 9th on TVG.

I agree that the camera shots are confusing. I had my horse in the middle of the pack on the far side, then lost him for good when they went to the overhead for a few seconds.

The sunlight on the saddle cloths didn't help in the stretch.

Glad you won, I had a loss today.

Great thing about this game is there is a whole card of races tomorrow for them to come back and they could.

You calling me an idiot,cause i was right on a simple comment yesterday about Euros? get a #$#@@ life Hoss. You only want to read and hear what you agree with, anybody else is just an idiot.
I read your posts and your opinion means less than zerooooooo to me if you want to know the truth fool.

Any dumb arse can predict the euros will lose. The trick is finding and posting who will beat them.

And lets face it...there is an overabundance of jerk offs like you who are scared to post their picks.

Yeah nice call...

it probably wouldn't have mattered but the ride on Wait A While was maddening for me. And I let out a multitude of profanities when Denman was acting like she was going to win going around the turn wide.

I did make quite a few dollars on her but I have all day tomorrow to lose it back.

She is about as tough as they come. She just finds a way to get up and win.

fisrt of all i posted my three picks in the selection section blog and I lost today ,now your nasty attitude means zero to me lol

[Gauchos0522]

heart shaped really ran like crap from the 12 hole
seriously though overall they didnt run well but if you follow this notion all the way through it is bound to burn you at least once. visit ran a solid race and the synthetic euros didnt fare well. i doubt the heat is what did most of them in today.

So you don't play exotics? Just win wagers? Because that info is pretty damn useless and it can lead to redboarding exotic winners.

For example...

"Hey didja see dat dere? I picked Zenyatta and of course had 'er covered in pick 3's, 4's exacta, tri, super, dd because i'm awesome!"

We get those partial redboards all of the time. Not saying you would do that though.

That's just hilarious, sadly. I long ago gave up trying to watch racing on ESPN and the XFL analogy sums it up better than I ever could have. I got so dizzy trying to watch ESPN racing that I was ready to vomit.

I play some exactas some, but mostly win and wps if good odds. Exotics with 3 or more horses , multi race bets ,no don,t play them. I'm content with moderate bets with moderate gain or loss.

The track is a joke setting records and going 1:08 and all but ain't this fun?

because Curlin def. wont win tomorrow.
It might not be fair or right, but this is how it will end up.

Can you imagine the outrage if this was a dirt track and the times were that fast? 119.4?
