Hello to all my fellow horseplayers
Hello everyone! I'm new to the site, and new to this wonderful sport. I've been betting on horses for 2 years now, and I've been very lucky along the way. I cashed a pick 6 at gulfstream in my first year on a 3 dollar ticket. That wasn't due to my handicapping, but rather a great dose of beginners luck. Needless to say I'm hooked. Luckily i phased the pick 6 out of my bets because I don't have the bankroll to sustain the losing streaks that are sure to come with playing such a bet. I love handicapping. I'm still learning everyday, but i truly enjoy the challenge that handicapping presents. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the wealth of information that this site provides. I love this sport and my 4 year old son is taking a liking to it as well. He fell in love with California Chrome during his failed triple crown bid, and always asks me when he's racing again. Thanks for all the information you provide here, hopefully someday I can contribute as well.

Ditto! Runhappy and Keen Ice win in the Pick 4 sequence. Wish I hit the "repeat" button a few times on that one.

That pick 4 completely overpaid. I was shocked.

Thanks everyone! Surfcasting is great in RI... Just not in the winter. Can't wait for spring to break and all the good horse racing that comes along with it.
