Title: Thank you TG, Jerry, Jimbo, Chuckles, etc.
Post by: MonmouthGuy on May 03, 2008, 06:45:47 PM
I hit the blanking super.

I still can\'t believe it.

Would not have happened without TG.

$1 Super as follows

10-20 w/

5-9-10-20  (easy so far, those are the 4 choices) w/

2,5,8,9,10,16,20 w/

2,4,5,8,9,10,12,16,20

$180 turns into $29K


Would have tossed Big Brown except for the fact that his TG number was so good that he could win with a bounce combined with Chuckles and those who insisted that he was the real deal.

Would have tossed Eight Belles (based on lack of G1 Competition) except for TG #s;

Wouldn\'t have considered using ToE until I saw the sheets and read that his Thoropattern was 34% to Top and 27% to Pair. I thought he would pair, and I assume he did.  The responses to my \"Tale of Slow Ratty\" post and Jimobo\'s thread it helped firm my position on him.

And Jerry definitely convinced me that DoC was 50% to pair his top. Chuckles, That was a HELL OF A RIDE by Borel on the rail.

I am 10 Anchor Summer Ales into what will be a very long evening and I can\'t thank all of you enough.  I believe!

This is the hit of a lifetime for me.

Good for you.

You pieced together the puzzle very well.

Slow Ratty and DOC were the key elements in my opinion.
