Title: Risen Star
Post by: Chuckles_the_Clown2 on February 12, 2005, 02:24:33 PM
Is it just me or does anyone else think that Pletchers horse is gonna have to be a star to overcome this?

I can\'t believe this. Asmussens horses are way too high. That one hole horse just missed to Storm Surge and he had a two month freshening.

Lukas\'s horse can really motor. That last race was not your typical maiden field.

This is Goofey, Harlington is gonna be 6 wide or have to pull in and he hasn\'t pulled in before.

It\'s a lot to overcome for a 6-5 shot.

I think Iced Out and Buzzards Bay are a decent price.

Oh well,

That was aggravating. I knew Harlington was way up against it but I could not come up with that winner. I guess he\'s not a late developer...lol

I dont\' know, I had a very bad day, but I didn\'t come close to 2.8 million down the drain.

Zitos horses ran great.

When you bet against a 6-5 shot like that and you don\'t cash the bet, there\'s nothing to feel bad about. IMO, you obviously did the right thing. There was value all over the board by tossing Harlington. We\'ll get\'em next time. :-)

A quick glance at the charts says that Harlington may not be a Seattle Slew, but he deserves some consideration if the circumstances are right next time. He was beaten less than five lengths.

Scipion ruined my parade. He was gonna ruin it in second or third too...lol

The Super had two tickets 56K each.
