Title: Meadowlands is a joke
Post by: Gazoo on July 26, 2014, 07:29:47 PM
How many races tonight can you get a lack of effort ? Suck Zeron should get days for the lack of effort on these Alagna horses, then u have Alagna tweeting saying how ready and how good his horses are .... Market Share never pulls , Sears could have cared less if he won with Designed To Be... And I didn't even wager tonight , thank god or I might have broke my tv.

That would have been cool if you did break your tv, then tell everyone about it.

Haven't made a bet on any races there in over a month.  It has really become a joke.  Lot of tracks have turned into jokes.  I find myself betting fewer and fewer tracks.

What happened to Anndrovette after the Roses Are Red? Top 9 finishers made the final tonight and she couldn't beat anyone. Somwherovrarainbow has looked terrible too lately. Perfect trip tonight and completely empty.

BTW...Sweet Lou is fun to watch, and that was an awesome performance by Archangel tonight even though Timmy didn't try with Market Share.

PS...27-30 lifetime with trotting hopples on 17-17 last year, 1-6 this year taking them off...I'm just saying.... idunno

A lot of these races were preps or eliminations for next Saturday's races. So gamble at your own risk.

That's my point

This is precisely why heat racing is not only a good thing-it is the only right thing to do.  thumbsup

Check out Sweet Lou's race.  A 7 horse field and they finished 7-6-5-4-3-2-1. Weird!

 thumbsdown thumbsdown When no one is wagering on the second heat it's not a good thing either.

They hope that racing to win the elim to pick your post has everyone trying, but as soon as you realize you can't win and are making the final anyway what incentive is there to finish any higher...a few extra bucks from the elim purse or save the horse for the final...

What I think is wrong in many cases is the idea of saving something for next week.  What you "save" for next week might be gone when next week comes.   We are not talking about a car and taking gas saving measures.
I often look at a tough trip as a good thing in sharpening a beasts form.  It all depends on the horse.  That is something you can only learn from observation.  You might know a certain horse will not race well after being "gutted"  Others will only be sharper for next week.    I prefer the tough guys as opposed to the wilting flowers when it comes to spending my $$$

Definitely some crazy sh!t.  Archangel in a laugher.  Sebastian K dominated, but looked short.  Zeron getting shuffled to last on heavy fav Dreams Beachboy.  Anndrovette finishing in 26 flat from last and couldn't catch a single mare.  Provenance almost wins at 80-1.

Sweet Lou is a beast!  What's the record for most sub-1:48 miles?

Freaky.  I guess that's how a handicap race should finish.   rflmao1

I think that it's pathetic that they groom the surface to produce these ridiculous miles at this time of year.  Might as well add Sosa and Bonds to the HOF.  Oh wait, Pocono has that covered.

A clay track is always faster than a stone dust track except when it rains. It is like running on a treadmill vs running on concrete-the surface gives the horse energy back.

Northfield's biggest day of the year had free admission, free $5 match play bet and a contest for betting vouchers throughout the night... and only one food stand open in the grand stand.

Same owners own Krispy Apple who hasn't been in great form, not surprising to see them not run her and give Anndrovette a shot.
