This company should go out of ****ing business. It is an absolute disgrace. I will never do business with them again. Are there any other legal US companies to do horse racing with?

Bets: Win bets both parimutuel and through books on 2, 8, 12, 14, 16, some of which are freerolls yay. Across board small on 2 and 13.

Exacta boxes 2-8-12-14. Another including the 13.

Tris using 2-8-12-14 boxed with each of 3,5,9,13,16,19,20 (separate 5 horse boxes)

Winning $2 payoff over $19.50
Winning time over 2:01:80
Derby winner win Preakness +250

G#$D@#& Mike Smith! Horse has no wins this year and a 2nd in 3 races in a G3.

Lol at me, had I just done 16-all instead of 16-half the field [but not the winner. idiot.] I'd have an extra $980 for every $36 bet on the exacta. JFC.

Smith such a moron. He's done this in other Derbys, gutting Unbridled's Song and Bodemeister off the top of my head. WTF is he thinking? Pace was nice and reasonable and looking like they were gonna bunch up at the top then he decides its a harness race and swoops around and opens up early. So unnecessary. Doubt it changes the winner, but it definitely would've changed a lot of the rest.

In other news, the winner is going to win the Triple Crown.

ClarkNasty, thanks for the write up. It helped make sense of what felt like a pretty close 20 horse field.

I'd say the Derby is pretty much luck. 20 horse field just hoping for prices. Orb an obvious best horse but not in the class to make me want to use him.

I loaded up a little more on this because it was still available through most of the day, even though it was raining. Seemed too easy to be true.

Although I probably had a mini heart attack when they hit the 1/2 mile at 0:45 and the announcer exclaimed about the blistering pace.

$ $

Got what i was looking for,and got paid! The race turned out kinda as i thought in my head,but no way i saw Smith go waterhead again and go to the front like that...going to start to call him corky smith.

Spent Oaks day at the Wynn,(tyvm Mr Jerry Mancini from Pittsburgh) dead center in the book,and was alive to the late PK4 w/DOJ as my single. Yes i thought a horrible start,but by my eye in was initiated by Calvin not his horse crossing over like an a-hole and just F'ed it up for several runners. To my right was a good friend of Mike Mitchell (keep fighting!) name Mark who grew up with Mike's wife,and my left was i guess an ex agent of Cory Nakatani,who Cory thanks for griping knocked my horse out and me along with it in the DW survivor contest with 16 left. Honestly,i felt right at home because i am confident in my capping and myself and just had an absolute blast friday.

Watched the Derby at my place,still sick and no grubbage since the 27th,i am going to have to rent a car i guess and go to Cali to find meds,great place for a drunk,not smoke im finding,which sucks for me lol.

Great to see so much action itt this week,and hope it continues throughout the year. Naj im sure slept very well last night ,was suprised to see you went off Orb especially after that write up.

Going out to walk the steps at the fashion square mall on the strip,not suppose to be able to do it,but the only way i can say F U to cancer everyday,grab the form for Hollywood and see if there is opportunity to make a dime or 2 today.
GL to all,and congrats to all the winners itt from yesterday.
