Default BC just missed wagers

Wondering if you wanted to share the almost winner wagers from yesterday. I had a Tri that had Red Rock with Better Talk now and TH Approval. When I bought the ticket I knew I should of been buying an Excta. OOPS

-The DQ of Asi Siempre in the Distaff cost me the $1 trifecta.

-Singled in the Mile (not Miesque's Approval) and that cost me the late pick 4.


Had some scores too...hope everyone's scores outweighed the near misses!

I was at Santa Anita with a friend and we were sitting at a table in the basement with a mix of very friendly people from all walks of life.
Had a show parlay with my friend that got to over $300 bucks till we lost it all on TH Approval and I know we should of put it on Better Talk Now. Had a great Time listening to two old timers talking smack about each others picks. One liked Badge of Silver and his buddy said that sounds like a police man not a race horse. The other gezzer liked Lava Man and his pal claimed that was hand soap and no Classic winner was going to be named after a bar of Soap.
After a day of laughing at these two banter back and forth I realized that I was looking at my future!

I loved round pond but only cashed a win bet. Didn't see red rocks as a contender but I woulda had the P3 if I had.

I was alive to 7 horses in the Classic in the pick 3 and I didnt have Invasor. Things was is that the ticket was only $42. 3*2*7. Heck I could have gone 10 deep for $18 more.

Sorry but I find this really funny, the fact the you went so deep but didn't have Invasor.
To me he seemed the only threat to Bernardini. I couldn't see anyone else winning.

All I have to do is box, and I'm collecting a $8786 super. Stupid, stupid. Worst part is I had the money, I just tend to play conservative when I'm up.
THAT one hurts me!
