Random trifecta box coming up

[JakeT.]

Travers race with Big Drama. Trifecta box. 1, 2, 3. Just had a feeling. Wish me luck. I don't know anything about these horses other than Big Drama and think the outside spot is bad for him at those odds.

 

[JakeT.]

Winner if no one gets DQ'd. Booyah. Gotta love dumb luck.

 

[JakeT.]

Grr. And of course it looks like a DQ.

Its definately coming down... I dont know where they are gonna have the 1... Great call with that, I didnt have the 3 anywhere near the lead, make me wonder what I was thinking throwing the 7 in that race.

 

[JakeT.]

3, 1, 2 final. It actually helped the payout.

gotta love dumb luck...nice hit...$121.50

 

[JakeT.]

Or wait. I don't know if it helps or not. Either way I'm happy to win.

109.50 for me offshore. Either way I'll take it.

kool...

 

[JakeT.]

4, 2, 6 trifecta for the last race. Just a few bucks. Figure I have money to burn... Once again I don't know much other than the Triple Crown horses. This Kensei feller scares me.

 

[PimpyMcPimp]

Nice hit!

Haha I do decently enough when I read the forms and study the horses but this one involved this incredible handicapping:

Flip past ESPN. Think "I should bet on this since they are starting soon".

I knew Big Drama from the field and didn't like him on the outside and he was one of the big favorites.

Then I picked the three inside horses since I thought Big Drama would tire out the horses next to him on the outside.

Haha.

There was no skill.

it's all good...i don't knock anyones handicapping process...to each his own....i mean ...listen if u saw all the ripped up tix in my house today...you would think i have no idea what the fuck i am doing....come to think of it....i might not have an idea....!!!

 

[JakeT.]

Threw in a 1,4,6 tri box on another whim. No clue why.

u gotta a crystal ball 4 rent?

 

[JakeT.]

u gotta a crystal ball 4 rent?

Haha been a good day for me. I haven't even paid attention to horses since I had Summer Bird in the Belmont. It's all dumb luck but I'll take it.

I'm done with the horses unless ESPN puts on anything else today. I only bet because I could watch. Best of luck the rest of the day. If you have any good tips on other races, feel free to pass them along. :toast:
