I had my pick three live to 6 in the turf mile. 5k pay off if Animal Kingdom doesn't check on the turn. 1200 in Wise Dan was nice though. What a fantastic win. He looked Awesome!
I don't know what possessed me to single Trinniberg? The racing angel came out of no where.

I had a tri box with Emcee, Railtrip, Delegation, and John Scott. Tapizar just crushed me.

Loved Mizdirection all week and didn't back her to win. for days I was telling myself to put $100 to win. Not doing it. And see her win almost sent me an uncontrollable tail spin. Proceeded to loose a pile, chasing at Aqueduct. Worst part was I had the money.

Play of the day for me was catching the $2400 early pick 4 at aqueduct. The 7 Horse at 22-1 was a fluke.

Why do you feel the need to redboard?

Given the question at hand, I felt it was open season. If you don't like it F@*k off.

I personally want to read about some peoples highlights.

Thanks for the recommendation. I've been reading lots of the postings and really enjoy most peoples comments. I'll avoid Redboarding at all costs!
The structure of the wager is what leads to the drama for a reader. I'm sure everyone here had close calls. I could really give a hoot to everyone who went 5 of 6 in the pick six, unless you went down with Mucho. My heart is breaking for anyone who has that story.
