Though he only had 2 of the 5 winning $132k AQU triple carryover tix, it\'s still \'Attaboy\' worthy...

Absolute congrats to JB.Impossible looking The Roundhouse, at 35-1 in the pick six pool, took out the majority of players when defeating Sea Gaze who was singled or 2 by on app 70% of the tickets.The only other horse used as backup on most tickets was Dakota Roadhouse.

Mike-- I have regular partners on the Pick 6\'s and put a lot of money in this one(total $7700, most I ever put in). I played 3 tickets, one didn\'t have that longshot. Basically thought some races had very few contenders and I could buy the thing, turned out to be right. The biggest ticket was just trying to get to the last race winner, who I singled on that one-- key figure on the whole day was her slop race at GP which we had much better than Beyer (and almost certainly Ragozin, who simply refuses to give out good numbers on off tracks). That ticket was $4600, and I thought I was 80-90% to get to the last (\"all\" two legs).

Of course, if Sea Gaze wins I\'m looking at 3 tickets paying a whole lot less. But I was right about it being pretty predictable-- there was only one race on the card where I didn\'t run at least 1-2 on at least two tickets.

Good picking JB.Tell you why the game is truly impossible.Without saying anything too much, I knew that Sea Gaze was likely to not run his best,so the only other I could see was Ramons horse, no The rounhouse who would be the ONLY other horse one could invent.

That was pretty much my thinking-- it was clear they were throwing Sea Gaze away, and since the same thing had been done by Asmussen a few back, it was just a question of time. In looking at who else to use one was obvious, and the winner was the only other you could possibly make any case for-- especially on an off track.
