'Mornin' guys. Think I'm feeling better than yesterday. Expecting to handicap as of right now.
I'm a little miffed. The Racing Form for which I pay $12.00 each time I handicap is always leaving me short of the tacks I want to handicap at this time of year because turf handicapping generally sees more longshots than races on the dirt or tapeta. And there are only a few tracks at this time of year that are running turf races. Would it be too hard to put them all in the Racing Form? It's too hard for the Racing Form because they rarely do it. Assholes.
Yesterday's form didn't have Fair Grounds. My buddy who was at the track and was able to get a printout of the FG races called me last night and told me that "my system" had two horses (9/5 and 38-1) in the eighth at FG. Of course they ran one, two and paid $165.00 exacta. I sure could have used that yesterday. And certainly would have had it had Fair Grounds been in my Racing Form.
So what do they do today? Drop Tampa Bay from the Form who is running on a fast and firm turf and replace it with Fair Grounds!?
They suck.
Anyway, good luck today to anyone who joins us today to participate in the thread. Please keep a running record of your play.
Congrats to Joe who played two races yesterday and hit them both! Do it again, Joe.
Good luck, all.
