Hamletonian Day

[pezz97]

I bet you're having a great time, Grape. GOOD!

We had a blast. Home now and only cashed 1 ticket but it was a fun day!

So the international was down a little this year. Good to hear it was up in NA

numbers for international wagers come in early next week per the news release by Amy Silver.....

Then why does the Big M site have the handle listed at 7.6? I just assumed they put that in. That is where I got my figure from

Maven was going to go by. They got it right with the DQ as well

Disagree, Grape. Maven was running before Tetrick moved outside. Yannick made a green driver mistake and yanked his horse thinking there would be interference. The rules state that is not a reason for DQ. Tetrick actually looked to see there was clearance.

[Unknown]

Agree that there was no interference.

Maven wasn't going to win anyways, but judges blind.

I agree with you, Gisser. Yannick was 3 or 4 lengths behind Tim, and Tim took a good look before he pulled out. The rule is you have to move to the outside (where clearance allows) and lose ground, resume the proper gait to advance. All those rules were met. Kinda like baseball umpires, though: Can't change the call.

I said that and tried to bet my buddy Cyber but luckily he wouldn't bite   

Was a great day and I really enjoyed spending it with my good friends plus I left 73 cents on the

lead .

Lock of the day: Race 6 - #5 CAPTAIN TREACHEROUS

Value play of the day: Race 8 - #4 APERFECTYANKEE broke last time and came flying late.

Wide open race of the day: Race 9 - COCO LINDY doesn't have much class, DON'T KNOW CHIP unfortunately has Macdonald aboard, Morrill may not be agressive with LIKEABATOUTAHELL

Showdown of the day: Race 10 - CHAPTER SEVEN/MISTER HERBIE rematch

Showdown sequel: Race 11 - CHECK ME OUT/MAVEN rematch

Hambo pick: Race 12 - #2 MARKET SHARE

Take a long look, these favorites are vulnerable: Race 13 - WE WILL SEE is 2-for-8 this season and there is a ton of speed to his inside.  FOILED AGAIN starts from the second tier and may not see the rail in this race.

Newbie watch: Race 15 - MALAK USWAAD N defeated MEIRS HANOVER last time out.  Is he the real deal?

Value watch:
Race 4 - #3 AIR GUITAR HANOVER (flying late last time)
Race 5 - #8 JERSEYLICIOUS (flying late last time, beaten fav)
Race 6 - #8 HAIL THE TAXI (went from 8th to 1st at Yonkers)
Race 7 - #8 ROYAL ASSETS (Schnittker to Tetrick)
Race 13 - #4 ARACACHE HANOVER (the Minister is back)
Race 15 - #2 ALEXIE MATTOSIE (had to have needed that last race)

Under/Over: Sears - 1.5

Damn now I see why you were betting the same race on both sides of the OTB   

Wish I woulda seen this or watched what you were punching 

[The Skipper]

Damn. I guess my buddy The Skipper was not playing today. 

I'm a little shooter now compared to Gilligan and the gumba bros, I think the lovely mother of the

brother spent more on scratch off tickets than I did on the horses

I want to change my mind now... if you agree with me I'm probably wrong.

Hey Skipper - I left my car windows cracked open during that rainstorm. When I got in I thought I was on the SS Minnow. 

[Just Saying]

That right there's funny!

That's because I ran out of $$$ on my voucher!

Had a great time with the Oakbrook gang today!  Loved hearing about Pace night, the cost of a taxi ride in NY, and what Brower really thinks about Zoccali. 

Can't believe we had to video stream a race on our phones and couldn't stop laughing when someone asked if they could watch (I mean squint) with us.   

Gotta give it up to the Skipper!  He's like a big teddy bear that will rip your head off!
