thanks, good way to put a band aid on a rough start to 2018

was rooting for the to edge the , but it worked out OK

Sounds like some timing issues, will wait to form any opinion on the race.

[GMB@BP]

Ok, the fraction for the mile was way way off on the screen.

This looks like a very weak race, and while not as much an indictment of Noble Indy who was on a very fast pace the runner up and 3rd horse cannot be bet back off this. My Boy Jack in particular has had two dream setups in a row.

That race kind of sucked for me. I keyed heavily against My Boy Jack like I said I would earlier in the thread. I hit the exacta multiple times but still lost a little money on the race. I needed it the other way to make money. I had it equal the other way and had win bet on the 2nd horse. I thought he was home at one point. My crush ticket ran poorly.

My Boy Jack was not good. He got a very good setup and still got beat by 2 horses.

I sort of hate being right and not making a score, but this hurt worse because I lost a few dollars.

Its just a horrible feeling isnt it, when your horse goes by then suddenly that lead starts to collapse, its like "u gotta be kidn me"

Oh no. This is 2018 - racing has state of the art timing equipment in place that rarely, if ever malfunctions. You can bet the posted times are extremely accurate........

Why don't my horses ever come again?

That was a tough one. I thought for sure the winner was done after being on that tough pace. I was more worried about My Boy Jack winning or splitting me. So when the winner came back again, ouch! The saving grace was that it wasn't for my biggest ticket. That one was up the track. It cost me, but not a ton of money.

even if they do, you it always feels like the "come again" happens to you a lot more than the other way around.

My Boy Jack wants no part of 9. Looks like a 1 turn closer. Race was weak. Want no one out of there.

Set my DVR to record TVG and Fox Sat At The Races and NEITHER one showed the La Derby?!?! Came home to watch the replay after work and it was nowhere to be found.
Hmmm...I'm guessing contractual bullshit prevented it from being shown. It's no wonder I spend about 1/10th of the money I used to on this game

[Tom]

It was on TVG2.
Not sure if Fox was planning on airing it, but it went off past 6:30 - the card got way behind at some point.
