Even money chalk did not run a step.... Ran 4th or 5th. It ran 6-1-2 something. I was heavily invested into the 1 winning with a little 2. Running 1-2 sucks.

I am trying to get a better understanding on betting strategy. Obviously you like the 1. When you mean "heavily invested". How much are we talking here?

Chart

Lion Heart colt from Dave Braddy much the best at 11-2. Another Calder-based winner.

Sorry to see Regal Ron finish that far back. I know he got a mention from a caller (I believe it was one of the owners) on ATR. I'd like to see Lawyer Rons do well.

The dam of Morgans Guerrilla ran five times on dirt and her best Beyer was a 74. She ran five times on turf and her best Beyer was a 94.

Her only other offspring (by non-turf sire Afleet Alex) never ran a Beyer better than 56 on dirt -- but ran a top of 76 on turf and made almost all of her money there.

Maker has always sucked with debuters anyway.

your right, i got Trakus'd....i get turned around when they are coming down the stretch cause the chicklets go right to left and the placing above it goes left to right. The 5 was in 4th so he was all the way to the right, i mislooked

I bet him win place. My only backup was the 2 who ran 3rd. I played 10 straight exacta 5 box. I singled him in the pick 4, I singled him in a few pick 3's. I would have hit the pick 3's. It was chalky after, but I would have had a 7-2 start for 8$ total.
