"LOL. Well due to the fact that I bet on just about every horse in the race, my winnings from my Giacomo bet amount to about breaking even. If Afleet Alex would have finished second, then I would be ahead. Oh well, at least I get my money back."
Ha ha! I recycle cans twice a year, then go to the satellite joint. I used to bet all the longshots, and always lost it all and then about 30 more. So now I just bet horses that are between 6 and 12-1. Then I break even and curse myself for not picking longshots.
LOL. I hadn't gone to the races even once in about a year, so I made up for it- all in one day and all in one race ;-)
Betting on horses that are between 6 and 12 to 1 seems like a good idea. I've seen a lot of horses win at those odds on the replay show.
