Kentucky Derby
Anyone hit?
I had Thunder Snow so my race ended early. Had a $5 future bet on Untrapped that would have paid $380 except he sucked.

Thunder Snow went crazy right out of the gate and as you said your race ended early. I bet on McCraken who finished 8th I believe. I only make a small wager as there are just too many horses and anything can happen. There were no real stars in the field this year

I thought it was a very mediocre field and came down to Irish War Cry and Thunder Snow. One was 20-1, the other 5-1 so I took a shot.I had $10 across the board on him and when the handicapper at South Point endorsed him I doubled it.
Such is life.

The main handicapper at Wizard of odds called the exacta so I wouldn't be surprised if he hit one or both of those.
He was wheeling half the field ,or so it seemed. He called the exacta straight up.

VP vice is sufficient gambling, though I did enjoy the broadcast. Those broadcasters are knockouts. My Old Kentucky Home is such a wonderful song. It was especially lovely to hear amidst the pageantry and spectacle of the first Saturday in May. What a sloppy track. Former nominee of Pres. Trump Mr. Viola again emerges smelling like roses.
