It looks like I misclicked and had a boxed quinella instead of trifecta which sucks as that costs me 1k or so, but still going to win about 2k and change on the race instead of 3k and change, so still one hell of a good day

Will show up once a year for the rest of my life now for Melbourne Cup picks <3
No worries, man.

As for the Breeders Cup action tonight:

I strongly fancy Limato for the mile. I have a lot of faith in this horse. He is easily the fastest horse in the race and is also an absolute warrior. He will get the job done. I make him a 4/6 shot and he is freely available at 3/1 and higher. Very big edge there.

Also Found in the 12f turf. I think she is far too big at 7/2. I make her about 15/8. She is the clear form pick and is as reliable as you can get. Nothing is cast in stone in this game, but she looks sure to deliver.

Wonder Gal in the 10th is a very live dog. At a wedding so I don't have my notes with me but I did make a point to bet that horse.

What an incredibly bad ride by Ryan Moore. How many times does this guy have to get it so badly wrong in Group 1 races before people start to wake up and realise that he is nowhere near the best jockey in the World? I have been saying it for years. The guy is ridiculously overrated.

Regarded by many as the best jockey in the World and I can list 10+ Group 1's in the last year or so that he has made a complete mess out of.

Wow.

What about castallano? Idk why he let highland reel get so far away? Flintshire prolly wins if he accelerates earlier. Easy to say as a fan though. Im sure if he goes early and horse fades + finishes poorly... Prolly look ls terrible

Castallano got it badly wrong too, but Moore even more so as he was a further 3 to 5 lengths behind Flintshire through the body of the race. He gave his two main rivals 12 (or more) lengths and 5 lengths at a crucial stage of the race. Terrible stuff. Especially seeing as Moore does this exact same thing on a regular basis in top races. The press here are totally overboard about him, hailing him as the best jockey in the World who can do no wrong, when in reality he is often a liability in top races. As I said above, I can list many many instances where he has done the exact same thing in Group 1s.

Look, I won money on the race as I had Found for a place @ a stand out 1.7. I baulked at going for the win on her due to the Moore factor and the possibility that he would do exactly what he did. I also had her in a win and place double with Limato, so if that one wins it will have cost me a lot, presuming she would have won, which she might not have, but it would have at least been nice for her to have been given a fair shot at it.

Limato even money for a place here and 3/1 for the win. Both are exceptional value, but especially the place odds. I mean, he is fav to win by a clear point on Betfair from Tepin & Alice Springs (both 4/1), but yet both of those are shorter than him on the place market, something that makes zero sense to me seeing Limato is such a reliable type who has only ever been out of the 1st 2 once in a 13 race career spanning 3 seasons and that once at a time when his stable were badly out of sorts.

Limato now a whopping 2.3 for a place (1st 3) and only 1.6 for the 1st 4. Absolutely does not add up.

He looks a bit giddy in the parade, but hopefully he will be okay as he is often a bit like that. Tepin in comparison is pure chilaxed.

Sigh... Limato didn't perform anywhere near the level expected.

Yeah, poor performance. Had a good run through the race etc. Maybe the ground was too firm, they say he needs it but maybe not that firm, maybe he lost it in the preliminaries. Anyway, no excuses, beaten fair and square.

I'm getting crushed also. Idk why i play this game. I never win lol. Cali chrome at 3/5 is comical. Maybe 1-1 but offers no value at that price.

No way cc is better than ap. ap would crush cc. Interview by Espinoza is comical. Will play melatonin to win. He prolly won't even be close to winning but his price is nice and he likes sa. Hoping arrogate stumbles at start and doesn't get lead.

Most likely scenario I see is arrogate battling frosted with cc sitting behind and taking over lead on the turn and running away.

I should listen to my gf more, she called Mike Smith with a perfect trip ahead of time. So won a little but not nearly enough, ha.

She is ridiculously lucky at the BC over the years. And she called Rags to Riches as well.

Rags is who made me who i am today back in 07 and i have never looked back

I was happy to see the gripes about jocks but was not who i expected but agree about Moore very much and JC and said last time i wrote about Flintshire that JC would not be happy until he got that horse beat. Reminds me of RD when he rode Gio Ponti i always thought he moved wrong every damn race and Gio could/should of had plenty more G1 under his belt.

I thought the ride by VE on CC was absolute horse chit...Dude looked liked he robbed a damn bank looking for the po po i mean WTF are you doing man? If you cant sense another animal close to you or your looking to see where BB's horse was at? Not sure never saw him do that before on CC that much and just sends off all kinds of red flags in me. I am of the opinion and have not but watched the replay 1 time as i just got in from the wedding (BLAST!) and had not read anything anywhere either just came to the thread so not sure he said why he was looking like a bobblehead jockey. Never cared for VE myself rather have a GoGo or John V myself. Thought Rosario would be better at this point as well but he has really flattened out.

Mike Smith's move inside at the corner was incredible and is what won the race. If he doesn't make that move Chrome wins.

Spare everyone my reasons you know who i am putting my saddle on and have been for a long time. Do not believe the gaslighting fellas and stay the course.

Looks like from what i read Runhappy is scaring them off in the Ack Ack and i would think this might be a vulnerable spot with such a layoff but i only have saw the initial work on the comeback. Like to see a safe sound horse come out of it with a bright future. Horse has no idea why the drama around him.
Boom! Biggest score ever by far

Thanks a lot appreciate that

Thought i would be able to cap Aqueduct today at least but my head is still not in it from the election. It has been well over 24 hrs and it has not gone down and i think i was suppose to call a Dr after 4 hrs or some chit but think thats only if you took the blue pill Watching the crying and gnashing of teeth is way better than i even thought...Hell i will reinvest the $$ already forget about BUT the reactions to me anyways is forever. The harborers of virtue crack me up. I will add a clip i NEED to make my ringtone some Fng how just the first 15 seconds is all to listen too...Might be funniest thing i ever heard in 15 seconds.

Would be interesting to see the ticket of the smooth million + won by the DMR p6 carry ticket. Whom ever or whatever the cost of the play or whether that was a secondary ticket, it's a work of art and congrats. Alive to 2,4,6 and get the tag at the wire was a good bystander stretch run sweat. Good on em.
