    who knows who is gonna win? takes your
    chances.

    ### - i know haha, and was just winding you up hehehe...

    as it is, i'd need a load as collateral 'for' a loan lol, so no worries
    there bud haha...

    grinning T won the last time out though didn't he! same jocky too!

    different course tho'? (he's never won at santa anita)

    still like him though...

    and Strong Constitution again eh? (was withdrawn last time/non-runner?)

    might be worth a bet, maybe even as a 50p double as well huh...

    no he don't talk about races coming up.
    i just like the name of the horse and
    the fact that he is riding it.

    so Sunday we have Strong Constitution
    riding in the feature race (70K) on the
    #2 horse in the fifth race. this is wide
    open, only 5 horses running in this race.
    who knows who is gonna win? takes your
    chances.

    we were gonna go out today to santa anita
    they left free passes for us at the gate.
    but we are only interested in the one race.
    alot of drivin' for little return of enjoyment.
    we probably would have gone if the track
    was closer to us. we are such lazy pricks.

    ### - just lookin' at him now, & he's been upped in class from his last
    outing?

    anyone there could win this small race, so would more usually back the
    rank outsider every time in summat like this (Zimba Warrior)

    he's also the 2nd fav so his sp will be very low (not showing any actual
    prices on him here yet but is listed as being the 2nd fav)

    so is not really worth backing imho, not unless you're really gonna
    win-back him for a whole heap more, it's good for the owners if he does
    win but is useless for us punters risking our daily breads heh...

    plus they's only offering 2 places on this race @ 1/4th of the sp (win & second) so is not even worth backing for a second place?

    good job too that i didn't back it in a double with gt then :)

    so am gonna leave it, and watch his progress against his present company
    to see how he does at this distance + class...

    he might win, but would only give him a 1 in 5 chance of doing so ;)

    meanwhile, am still lookin' out for more 33/1 winners heh...

    that 442 double yesterday nearly had another 12/1 added to it (had 2 accumulator bets yesterday, and in the other only 1 of them won at 12/1
    and could have just as easily included him in the other bet instead making
    for a 5,746/1 10p treble & 3 doubles! = approx £600!)

    that was close but again, no cigar ;)

    ### - it's dropped to only 4 horses now with matey as 3rd fav @ 5/2...

    outsider zimba @ 22/1 i like even better now haha ;)

    (i.e., it's an old punter's rule of thumb to always back the outsider in a
    3 or 4 horse race...)

    5/2?? - it's hardly worth gettin'outta bed for innit unless ya gots big
    stakes?

    ok 100 dream bucks to win on SC!

    and erm, a fiver on zimba hehe ;)

    ### - aww couldn't you have gone, and done the $2 pick-six (or it's
    equivalent at that track) and just had a nice day out all round? one of
    your selections would have been this horse so only 5 others to find...

    the chances of picking all 5 or 6 are through the roof of course hah, a definite miracle in anyone's terms, but still offers better odds than any lottery, waaay better, plus there's things like form involved to refer to
    as well heh...

    might have been special passes to a special trainers/owners area for all
    ya know?

    and once there ya could have tried the magical 'Let it ride' thing!

    (accumulators are like mini let-it-rides, which is why i like 'em)

    :)))

    tight odds today in ALL the races.
    fuck that. track don't want to pay
    much. they can choke on their *special*
    3 dollar beer then, lol!

    ### - haha + those bookies are actually incredibly informed!

    and they's tricksy too! enough to deliberately misdirect peeps for
    example...

    reading between their lines can be very challenging :)
