revised: E.O. going 1-4-10-8 so I'm adding that one to make it $7.

Good luck.
Howard, I didn't realize you were such a horse player.

Sorry about Gronkowski ruining your wagering day. That's how every day I've ever gone to a horse track has gone for me.

I've had some good days with the Greyhounds, though. Better luck next time.

It was worth $7 to see it. Cheap entertainment.

I bet a little more than that.

I built a 10 cent superfecta wheel (out of the norm for me) that cost me $18,00 and I missed 2nd. I watched the replay twice and there is no doubt in my mind Tenfold should have finished 2nd. He made his move and was shut off causing him to back up. The chart mentioned that too and it cost me a payday. The horse that really disappointed me was Bravazo. I also had him in the 2nd spot. He had no excuse at all and is just inconsistent.

Congratulations to Justify and his entire camp. He is that good.

No just cheap entertainment from 2pm to 7pm (NBCS and NBC) with the Belmont and the other grade 1 races before it.

John can you explain the wheel. All horses (?) in the 180 combinations.
The minimum I can wager on a super is $1 so your structure would have cost me $1800.
A 4 horse $1 super box would have been $24. I began to feel better about Justify as the last hour wore down but I thought he was beatable but did not want to leave him out of my 7 $1 tickets. I decided against the $24 box.

The surprise for me was Gronkowski. I had him in my bottom three having never run more than a mile.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
What will Justify do next?

Retire to protect the $22 million stud fee.
Wait for the Breeder's Cup Classic and try to match American Pharoah with the Grand Slam of horse racing.

Challenge the Traver's which is nicknamed the "graveyard of champions."
---------------------
The TV crew said that the owners of Audible felt he could beat Justify and that is why they left him out of the race. If Justify is that good then so is Audible in the eyes of Justify's owners.
Audible may be a very nice winner in his next race.

would presume that they bring Justify back to Winstar for some much deserved R & R for awhile?

Congrats to Justify, who we all mostly doubted, because of Belmont's 1.5 mile track. He ain't no Secretariat, but who is?

Kudos also to Gronkowski, and his incredible second-place win! Who woulda thunk it?
