[joeyspicks]

just try to beat Jerry on that even money favorite:jump:

with #9 Karakorum Splendor


9th (doubles)

9-2-4 and LS #12

[joeyspicks]

oops....picked the wrong horse to beat Jer....but down he went anyway at 6/5

I'll just box up my choices in the 9th and call it a day(& hope the 12 finishes:ThmbUp: )

[joeyspicks]

well the 12 sure did FINISH.....and paid $56.50 16.80 11.00

no exacta for me ($312) or double (like $700+)....... sigh

did have $5 across on the 12......but it coulda (woulda, shoulda) been so much better..

That 12 was a nice pic in the nitecap -- how did you land there if you don't mind me asking? :)

TIA

Truth= it was the jockey....

yeah I know.....

Its just that I didnt like the race or much in it and the plain truth is I landed on him because of the jockey. Sometimes it pays to be more lucky than smart!

I really thought I had something in the earlier race...in trying to beat a false favorite (s).....and looked at the 9th race to complete the double. When I lost the 8th I looked at the 9th and thought it wasn't really playable. I did box the four horses mentioned in the exacta and then almost as an after thought played the 12 across the board.......and got lucky:ThmbUp:
