Simply don't know what to say other than thanks to everyone here and those that called the show or emailed about today. I'm particularly happy that at least 2 ATR/DTers caught the $13,000+ on the P4, and so many more the P3's, etc.

It was simply a magical day where being in position to capitalize paid off as the included big price horses ran great. I felt it was going to be a good day when the Wilkes horse won. One of my 3 best days ever at the track alongside Derby '95 and Breeders' Cup '00 and maybe the 'best' because the work done is always designed to be shared with those here.

Sincerest thanks for all the kind comments...

Awesome. I cant relate because the closest I ever came to winning that kind of money was in the 01 Derby when Monarchos completed a $78 double with Flute winning the Oaks the day before. You and Steve Crist are kicking the crap out of this meet!

Now THAT is why I play this game. Great job Steve!

I was close to playing yesterday -- and I know I would have at least looked at the "Byk Picks". Who knows, maybe I would have hit too. The uncertainty will keep me from losing my mind.

If only "ONTHEOUTSIDE" was still around could have bailed out for the meet.

That's the downfall with betting a system.... Unless you have unwavering discipline, you usually run out of patience or money before things start going your way....

To roughly quote an advertisement I recently viewed.

"Hey Franken-Capper, when are you due back at the lab."

Not sure what's in those lobster rolls, but I may need to get me some.

Thunderous applause from Southern NH.


Oh, for the record, I believe that when it comes to avoiding precipitation of any kind, the "scamper" is what would follow the "scurry" and precede the "dash".

Again, Great job!!
