THX. just got the nod over Mel's horse the #6

Yea, my horse got squeezed out at the sixteenth pole between the #s 5 and 6 but I don't think he was gonna win anyway.

Jeez. No horse racing luck today. After an awful troubled start the #3 came charging for second. But second is a rip the ticket for me.

-72.00 -16.00 = -88.00
+25.80

Just got a call from one of my track buddies from New Jersey. He, like me, had the exacta in the Preakness yesterday. But his buddy who I know from Saratoga had 40-40 on the winner. Hell of a score. And if that isn't enough my buddy had a 35-1 turf firster at Belmont (can't remember if it was yesterday or Friday) for $10.00 across.

There are good stories in horse racing!

as they turned for home I thought there was a good chance that my key horses were gonna run one, two. Right. They ran four, five!

Finally caught a good one but I'm still gonna bitch. Normally I would have boxed all three of these key exactas but because I have been having such a shit day I had to pull in the reigns. The 1-5 won and paid 172.60 but on most other days I would have had it twice with my normal box. OK, Bitch over. Thank you horse racing Gods for letting me have a good one.

-208.00 -16.00 -16.00 -24.00 = -264.00
+81.80 +172.60 = +254.40
