Regarding yesterday, it was a grind it out day I was always a photo or a place away from a big day. I actually was able save my "bacon" with a $3 late p3 at Saratoga that got me back around $550.....thank you Alpha.....if only Jackson Bend could have gotten up it would have been a huge day.........woulda...coulda....shoulda:rolleyes
Yeah, i got a million of them two..been hitting the tracks and otb's bout 50 years...How bout DQ's? I'm up on them over the years..most notable was a race few years back at Calder and in the tri my numbers finished 1-2-4..OBJECTION on the 3rd finisher...yeah, they rip him down and put me up, nice tri about 4 c-notes...and one nite at the Meadowlands t-breds, my horse finished third in a tight stretch battle..looked like the jock stiffed him.
Objection on the first two finishers and they put my number up first
I had the ex in that one decent payoff...first time i ever saw them rip the first two..
