I had Classic Empire boxed with Conquest Mo Money. As usual I should have stayed away from the exacta and bet Empire across the board.

However, I hit the exacta in the 8th at Belmont. Also bet the number 2 horse to place and show. Pretty good day to have only placed bets in two races.

I had to watch the replay. Very exciting...even watching it four times. :)

off topic of the race, but in looking for news of the race, many articles popped up discussing the Preakness could move to another race track.

They mentioned how Pimlico is an old track, needs renovations, is geographically hemmed in, and is adjacent to some bad neighborhoods.

I recall this was discussed quite a bit at the time of the Freddie Gray incident, and at that time, some black community leaders lamented that the community there gets very little benefit from the Preakness. Since it’s in a bad area, people come right in, leave after the race, and don’t stick around the area; don’t contribute to the local businesses in the area.

Time will tell on that. Does it make sense to renovate an aging race track, on a smaller than ideal geographic footprint, in a bad neighborhood?

I read the article and wondered why Yahoo! pays stupid writers. This was written...

Cloud Computing came "out of nowhere...". Then, in the very next sentence, Cloud Computing was "third "for most of the race.

Does no one at Yahoo! read their own writing? /rhetorical

Does anyone have a link to a replay, please?
