how much is that exacta worth?

The exacta with 20-1 Midway Road, ridden by Robby Albarado, returned $120.60, the triple was worth $684.20 and the $1 superfecta came back $792.20.

I missed the Derby exacta by a nose...damn Empire Maker.

hehe, yeah I did hit the exacta on the KY Derby. 97 bucks. The only problem is I bet 100 on the Derby. I was down 3 bucks for the race. Kinda defeats the purpose. :)

Although I did get a 600 dollar tri that day. I just love betting with churchills money.

We'll see if funny cide has the distance, it sure seemed like it from the preakness. Empire maker will be trouble if he runs, but then again I don't know if he can do 1.5 mi strongly either. Most of the talk says Funny Cide has it in him to run that race given his past at belmont.

Sure...rub it in. I haven't done well at the track since Turfway in Sept. last year (and that was $7800 of sweetness).

I like Funny Cide. The horse just looks like he's out there having fun. The Belmont is a looong race but, like you said, he's done well there.

people say horse racing is boring these days because there is no definative horse that has won the triple crown in years.

on the other hand, people are saying golf is boring these days because tiger woods is winning everything.

why do people use opposite conditions to support the same argument? i think i'm missing something...

I've never heard of these arguments... who are you talking to or reading? Tiger woods hasn't won everything... far from it.
