Ray
You have been posting for quite a while now, and even though you play without knowlegde of scratches, driver changes, and odds, your picks have been fantastic. I don't know the bottom line since you have started posting (maybe you can update us), but I'm sure the ex's and win bets are up some $$. Keep up the good work.:)

August and Sept are usually my worst months. Something to look forward to.

Hey Ray, good numbers.......& thx, for the thx....

So, are you still wasting your time and cash on Tri's ? .....Just seeing your realities, I would take that Win and Exacta Money and , and have added to it, that 5,096 towards your winning strengths.......

You can buy a lot of "A" with the additional profits....

Good Scores, I will post them on my Fridge........:jump:

best,

[mrroyboy]

I agree with Lotta as usual. I have been watching your picks for a while and I always wondered "Why is he f--- around with Tri's'?

[Ray2000]

I know it looks that way but..

The reason for playing the trifectas is it works best for me. The races I post here are about 20% of all my wagers, (those where the ML on pick1 is greater than 7/1). If I can catch 1 signer on my str Trifectas here, the ROI will swing positive.

If interested, the replies 10-14 to this thread

explains my betting prefs in more detail.


Best of Luck
