Historically the Saturday card draws the best horses --- the best crowd --- the biggest handle of the week.
I was thinking about this when I came home last night from work and I saw the posted handle of 1.05 million...
Will Saturday top it ?? Historically you would say yes.
I'm just not sure about it tonight. Harness fans wager on harness racing... That's about it.... Rarely do I see a runner guy throw some money down on a harness race. Is there enough money to go around and wager over a million again tonight ??
What do ya think ?
-
I think they'll do close to 1.5 million!! Only 1 short field, 3 10 horse fields, guaranteed $10,000 pick 5!! Looks like a competitive card!! Last night's handle was 2nd highest in SD history, they break the record tonight!! No other harness tracks, que sera, sera!!
-
after the display of racing yesterday,they should just close it down,terrible harness racing,just awful

Atrocious racing, multiple no tries and many looked preplanned.

Burke has 6 tonight. You can expect another hat trick. Minimum.
-
Dinkadoo...are you posting picks again tonight? You seem to be a very good handicapper. Better than i am and i drove the things for many years. I don't wager much but i like hearing other people's opinions on races
-
Working 530p-530a. Uggg
Will try to post a couple at a time.
Had a good night but watched hours of Q.
Hoping to rewatch Scioto Friday card for notes.
It’s horse racing one day you look like you know what your doing and the next you aren’t even in the hunt at the 3/4 pole.

message me your email address and I will send you my notes on Qualifiers from Scioto and Delaware.

At least there’s racing of some kind good or bad
-
Responsibly formful last night...cant complain about any winner....last race 8 ridiculous 20-1 ml...only nonsensical mline delivering.
Of course the 2 hi5s races 9 and 12: winners logical but horsemen lost all credibility after that with far fetched runner up horses...setting up two big prices
We here in canada got to play..and we did with long overdue reduced minimum wagers (20 cent supers and 60cent tris pke w4 and pk5....the pk6 a very reasonable 20cent AND NONE OF THST NONSENSE CARRYOVER looking for one unique winner and thats good.
Obviously were all stuck with another night of qualifiers last race program lines..but ya gotta start somewhere.
Good luck tonight.

It has been weeks since they had any racing, the drivers got to earn.

Fuck the drivers. They deserve 3 hots and a cot.

Very formfull IMO
-
race 1
3- Buckethead Fred, very handy tucked off the gate, made a move 3 wide on turn and without asking went by them at wire,
5 - Hogwarts Express, pulled around a tiring one on turn and sat behind a wall with no urgency
Race 2
2 - Southport Beach - Brett tipped top of the lane and a big hold, very nice tightener
5 - Pine Knot Tuff - circled field, fast back half, Page did chase him pretty good.
-
Dinkadoo..
If theyre in..race 1 looks like youve got nailed
Buckethead.. With hogwarts picking up something under w big driver change.
2 QUESTIONS FOR MY OHIO FRIENDS
1- name trainer mike hitchcock
A serious player or stay away. (a beard?)
2- i see kyle ater drives trains tonight on at least one where dan was trainer
In your humble opinion gamblers, would that be considered a 'trainer change' re your $$$??? And b) is dan ater ok? didnt hear anything up here..thanks

I don't know a lot about Hitchcock... There was a thread started earlier this week and it didn't say very nice things. He did qualify a couple at Scioto and they looked pretty good without really too much urging
Dan and Kyle, unless something changed they work together.. Dan is an ole timer that is pretty sharp. The stable can light up the tote board on occasion.

any opinions ..please post pics..
tanks in edvance
race 7-----#9 escapetothebeach. .time wise looks tons..but that damn 9 post

Lucpark..
Does have that small stretch feel.

-
Hitchcock is the real deal. No doubt about it
-

Double 3,4/5,8

I didn't catch how much the first race handled --- anyone see it ?

Why don't you just watch and bet another track?
Wait,,,there are no other harness tracks running yet. Maybe just quit complaining. How would that work?
-
race 2 wrap up === probably not good enough, but you get that not so great feeling when your driver, Brett, sits third and doesn't pull. Instead you get shuffled and are 4 deep on the turn and run second.....
Oh well --- next
race 3
I didn't have a real good feel from Q on this race El Passo
-
race 2
$110,027
I think race 1 was a little over $120k.

problem is there will be multiple tracks starting in a couple of weeks. Scioto will have to share the sandbox with other kids.
and the attitude of fuck off if you don't like it --- is why the sport is in the toilet..... Not sure of another business, which harness racing is, a business that basically tells the customer -- go fuck yourself..... Most businesses better have a superior product ( which we don't ) or they probably won't succeed... Which harness racing doesn't if they didn't get their mandated check from slot machines.
-
Highest priced winner after 14 races is 7.40 you better be betting chalks.
-
Race 3
$57,098

Hitchcock is trainer from Maine. Good trainer, good guy. His owners have decent money for good horses. Juice is not up to a Burke, Et al levels. He will win some races, but needs some better supplements to compete with Midwest juicers.
-
Wow big drop off ? Wonder why ?

-
Race 4
2 - Wonder Bull was chased around the track in Q === added Lasix for the Q
7 - my sneaky horse.... followed bad cover then ran behind a wall and looked like he still good have gone on. A lot of the Shawn Barker
driven horses were driven easy and would look for some of them to be on the board with a good price.
-
I’m going to use the barker horse with the 2 I’m listening to you
-
That music is horrendous. I new there were lots of black folk in Columbus, but that is ungodly!
-
Wow wasn’t close there . Handle came back a little bit
-
Pick 5 coming up In this race need some help
-
wow that race was a blow up
Virgils horse ran --- shocker --- had a few break in Q
Jeremy --- slammed on the breaks to give Brady a hole and then came slow fractions and race over. Will try my 7 again next week as he had bad cover off a quick back half...
Race 5
4- Gerardo was given an easy trip in Q
5- Pulled in front of the grandstand and ground out a trip
9- was in same field and never left rail behind a wall of horses.
-
Anything in the other parts that look like value ?
-
Race 4
$78,979
I smell a "take another turn boys" for the pick 5 with a 10k gurantee.
( Churchill had a pick 5 with a 500k gurantee today )
-
R5 17/17/56 1/7/9/56. That will burn up the $2.40 I have left over from last night

Kudos to Mike the Handicapper for giving out a $55.00 horse

Race 7 #9
Race 9 #10
-
7th - 10 Rockn Motion with 6,9,2
-
WTF just happened and I don't mean the races. 2 year old stakes drawn by owner?????? What is this .. the Mohawk Million style is now the thing ???
-
Race 7
5 - Q much better than the line looks
5-36910
-
race 8 -- this my wild card long leg of the pick 6
9 - 378 - 10 - 489 - 2 - 257
I like the 8 off the Q but this field may be a little steep -- he needs perhaps two starts to get a bunch of money off card. but will play a few bucks because of price
-
I’ll bite why not . Donating tonight
-
Gulp -- How about that Aussie horse bet off the board --
Race 8
$83,892
-
race 10
Most impressive horse to qualify on 17th --- and not just because the time was fast --- he made 51.2 look easy..
9-2 ML -- pipedream
try about 2-5
-
Mike is giving out his Hi 5 and giving the price based on a dime bet. They changed it to 20 cent bets this year Mike.
Get in the game.

Race 9
$123,715
After watching the 9th race --- I'm done after a very good weekend... But watching the old boys club and Page about choke down the 10 cuz you can't park anyone even if it means knocking your horse for a loop --- then I'm off to watching Los Al,,,, They had about $125k in the early pick 4 -- live after the first race
last bet I played at Scioto was
race 12
2 - should fit this group and nice Q
ex 2-35 and then boxed
tri 2 - 7 - a
-
Looks like they should break the million dollar handle again tonight .
-
I’m betting pipe dream he loses I’m done .
-
Cancel that I’m passing lettuce head is in this race . Horse ruins me
-
I figured he would win . Glad I passed
-
It sure is fun to watch live racing again. "Harness Racing is Fun!"
-
Yes, so much fun. I could have set that 60$ on fire and had the same fun.
-
Had the 2 in final race. No way the No. 6 held off No. 5, but the announcer was calling 6 the winner heading to the wire, so that was that. Shit never changes, does it?
-
Yeah lost my few bets
-
Yes, so much fun. I could have set that 60$ on fire and had the same fun.
I DONT GIVE A SHIT....THATS FUNNY
-
Yes, so much fun. I could have set that 60$ on fire and had the same fun.

that Monday holiday card is a hum-dinger for you boys that might want to earn some wagering $$$. National bank of Scioto Downs is open for the holiday. BUT !!! you kids need to be prepared instead of by guess and by golly. AND, some of you do-dos need to work a little harder than picking your bets by names.
