SPA Day XIX, Sunday, August 3, 2025

[Trigger]

I need to stay away from The Spa until Travers Day

Dutrow is training at 15% and this was a 1st time starter.

I respect your decision though, but it ain't happening, you'll be back to the SPA before 3 weeks.

SPA 3rd watch the 3 & 4 next race the Ortiz bros took themself out of contention, who can blame them with pools like these:

Pool    Totals
WIN    $437,792
PLACE    $109,426
SHOW    $67,197
EXACTA    $352,741

JT we're with you bro!

JT, if I was in your shoes staring down at a @330 to 720 profit, I'd throw 30 win on the 5 as Insurance.  If the 5 odds hold at 10-1 and he won heaven forbid  you'll double your original bet, or get paid 30 less on the one's you have if he doesn't win.  It's just a strategy to guarantee a win.

Testing, Testing this website sucks.. Hey Mike tell the bots they can take a break lol

Taking a big swing today
Spa early Pick 5
2/1-7/All/1/1,3,4,6,7..
$145 bucks

Congrats...I love your use of the all button. I tend to be a minimal horizontal player but I am impressed with how you use the all button.

That is a good idea in some instances, but I didn't do that this time. I thought the 5 had no shot. I blazed a profit of $420

Thanks bello.. you got to have a big bankroll to use it and be willing to take your lumps. It sucks using the all button and the favorite wins like in race 2 at the spa today. If Kendrick didn't try, which often times he doesn't, then it would have been a much better payout

[JT]

I made this bet about an hour ago at least, but the site was down of course so here it is..we got a shot at another one.
Spa Pick 5 starting in race 3
All/1/1,3,4,6,7/All/8
$140 bucks.. first 3 legs are done already
I really wish the 3 could of held on in race 5.
$74 bigger profit for the first one and a higher potential for the 2nd one

[JT]

Will pay for my 8 is $933.. pleasantly surprised at that number. Manny owes me one, earlier this week I had 5 out of 8 horses in a final leg and he won it on the 1A, one of the 3 horses I didn't have,  and cost me 2 grand. If ya win this one Manny ,I'll forgive ya

[JOHN FRANK]

I went and placed a bet at the OTB 15 minutes from wheres I live.
Here it is. HAWTHORNE,$1.00 pic 6. Small carryover.$542. No one bets Hawthorne or PIC 6. Maybe the pool for today will be $900.00.

Race 3.....3 6
Race 4.....2 3
Race 5.....7
Race 6.....1 3
Race 7.....5 9
Race 8.....6 7

Total cost.....$32.00.

One more thin. I never have trouble gettin into site or postin. Good luck,everyone.

Thanks for nothing Manny.. you fucked me again. Why couldn't ya finish 2nd a few days ago.

Ok Seems like all handicapping is on this side, whether harness or runners. Great day at Harrahs Pa so mostly trotters today

Red Mile

Race 1  #5 Win Box 15  dd  15/1

Harrahs PA   Need #1 for #1 for P4

Spa race 8 Box 34  dd an dp3  34/59/4578

[JT]

I played a $1superfecta key 3/2-4-6 race 8 at the spa

[Papillon]

Mountaineer

race 7--around 745 EST

I'm going to try and sleigh the heavy favorite with a minor upset...going with #1 Not This Boy..who will only be 2/1 or 5/2

coming off two very sharp efforts at CD..and what's this? Luis Saez at The Mountain?

#8 Hit Show has been facing Fierceness, Sierra Leone, etc and looks obvious-but I am hoping Saez gets the jump on him

simple win bet #1

That is a good idea in some instances, but I didn't do that this time. I thought the 5 had no shot. I blazed a profit of $420

1/2 today, and 9/10!

Great job JT, hey, he's back!  well done bro! 

Just got back from a sushi, errands run, but I watched the 5th from the outside! Nice!
