SPA Day XXVII, Friday, 8/15/25

[Trigger]

That race was set up perfectly for you until 7 came first over and set up the 4..Never underestimate the Bongiorno drugs.. especially at Yonkers.  I hate Yonkers with a passion. I hope they close that shithole down when MGM pulls the plug.

 

Agree completely and I once called that place, home.

I didn't even realize there was minor bridge jumper money on the 3, otherwise $13 bux is a damn good show price would of thrown a 100 there.  27-1 that much faith lol.

Yonkers has is and will always be run by really bad people. Races are an exhibition, pre determined by the best ( worst) scumbags in the business.  At Meadows, I only missed races 2 and 7. Both singles of course. But some of the rolling DDS have paid well. Still live in the late p5.

Nice job bello, we all don't win at the same time doing other stuff, but very glad to see that!

The #8 in Meadows 12th was a co-fav at Northfield last race got locked in just about 100% of the race.

Two to go on the p5 bello, well done!

Well said and bring it home bello

Problem with harness of course is pools ( like tioga where I am sweeping the field but could not make a big bet) or chalk. For me  winners at both tracks jump off the page. Sometimes like the finale at Harrahs Phillie, people dont know when a good driver and trainer come to town from other tracks and they are very good. You can make a nice score.

So I just started tomorrows Spa handicapping and immediately got a headache looking for winners. Harness is so much easier. Maybe because iI have been around it since I was a kid.

Tonight is a prime example as to why I rarely play Del-Mar.. way to tough 6 races and I've got 2 correct even spreading that much

I have been around Harness my whole life and yes it's much easier to Handicap for me as well. If the Harness tracks had any kind of pools for pick 4's and 5's that is what I'd play.. there just isn't big money to be made unfortunately. Shit the late pick 4 at Del-Mar had over $400,000 in it. On Harness you are lucky to get 4,000 at most tracks although I did fire in a late pick 5 at Hoosier because there was a carryover

Harrah's Chester 14th, I hope that what you're talking about - if so, that 56 is huge!   

Just notice I said Tioga, Not Chester. It was Chester.That is why I am on a budget. Brain not what it was.

Wat to go Trig and way to watch replays. Your $$$ shosed up early and driftet up.

[Trigger]

I got a house full of fruit.

Long night ahead so I go to my neighbor (my dealer) bring my glass too and say what do you got?

I score a 6 pack of energy bars and a glass of milk from her!

I'm all set for the night!

Thanks bello!   

It breaks just about even plus I have a free $2 dd with all in the 13th, I'll take it, thanks.

How I got the horse is a better story, guy starts this thread and doesn't say why.  I watch the race and catch the horse, put it my virtual stable shoots me an email same day, today the 8 is running, I amended by bets and added.

Hard stuff...You better go easy.  2 or 6 for a $2 p5 at meadows.

Speak to you guys tomorrow. Off to good old Waffle House for me to chug some coffee. Still not past race 1 at the Spa for tomorrow.

(Last week) JT can get sloshed, hangover, drink a cup a coffee and go win 4/5 and 24/25 races if I remember correctly.  Fucking Superman. 

I'm barely a man

Crazy, chalk but no other numbers were played but 2 & 6 the rest were 4/5, those horses were super standouts!
