The Preakness a lot easier to predict (obviously lol) than the Derby, or even the Belmont, so you could probably toss out half of the field before Saturday.

I'd probably do a $0.50 Superfecta bet like this for $28

Going with these. Currently waiting outside the OTB for doors to open. Surrounded by scumbags.

That's a bad term, Seacrest. Are Spaulding and badrogue "degenerate" hockey fans? Is Chus a "degenerate" bowler? Are you a "degenerate" family man? Is IMU a "degenerate" fast track employee? I don't like being called a "degenerate" just because I am an expert gambler. St. Cajetan is my patron saint.

The people this morning at the OTB weren't degenerates because they are gamblers. They were degenerates because they had dirty shirts and I could smell their BO from ten feet away.

Yeah, I thought he had him there for just a moment. Pretty good race. It should be exciting in New York in three weeks.

Grandsire was Pulpit whose Grandsire was Seattle Slew....so I don't think distance will be a problem.Also liked how he put on weight between the Derby and Preakness. :D

Hit the $1 Superfecta!

Had $70 wagered on a number of exotics.

was Heavy with $40 on 4 Tris! Then went $1 on 30 Super Tris!

Still a $100 profit

30 Super Tris is time consuming! Thus I am pissing didnt up it to $2 on them!

Kinda Pissed didnt have a 3-10-8 Tri as I was right in the 3-8-10, 8,3,10 realm!

Well, Seattle Slew isn't really known for siring distance runners. His chef-de-race profile leans toward Brilliant/Classic. He got the distance himself, but he was really a speed sire. Ideally, for a horse going a buck and a half we would want to see more Solid/Professional chefs-de-race in the pedigree.

California Chrome is one victory away from horse racing's Triple Crown after winning the Preakness Stakes on Saturday, but could a nasal strip keep the horse out of the Belmont Stakes on June 7? California Chrome has worn a Flair Equine Nasal Strip during his current six-race winning streak, but horses at the Belmont are not allowed to wear one.

Trainer Art Sherman on Sunday said it is possible that co-owner Perry Martin, who suggested his horse wear the strip, could pull California Chrome out of the race, according to Gary Mihoces of USA Today:

"This guy Perry Martin, he might not run if they say you can't run with a nasal strip. He's very funny about things like that," said Sherman, a day after his horse followed up his Kentucky Derby win with a victory in the Preakness.
Mihoces goes on to write that the 2012 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner, I'll Have Another, wore a nasal strip in those victories and would have done so without it at the Belmont before injury forced a scratch.

New York permits nasal strips only in harness racing.

Sherman says he heard about this rule on Sunday and isn't sure why the Belmont doesn't allow them. Per Mihoces:

"We just put it on because he (Martin) is kind of a guy that likes to test (things)," said Sherman. "He thinks it's really beneficial. … I don't know what the deal is (in New York). I heard about it today.

"All over the country, they let you wear them. Why would New York not?"
Sherman plans on talking with racing officials to understand the situation over the nasal strip.

Anyone who thinks the connections might actually skip their shot at the Triple Crown because the horse is not allowed to wear a piece of tape on its nose is crazier than someone who actually believes that piece of tape does something.

Exacta paid 18.20 (8-1) Not a bad return for the 1-2 favorite and 10-1 third choice.

Even better was the Tri return of 76 dollars for a 2 dollar tri with the favorite/third choice and second choice.

Never fear - California Chrome will run in the Belmont. And there will be no excuses.

http://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/ ... in-belmont

California Chrome will be allowed to wear a nasal strip when he tries to win the Triple Crown in the Belmont Stakes (gr. I) June 7 at Belmont Park.

New York Racing Association stewards ruled May 19 that the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands and Preakness Stakes (both gr. I) winner will be allowed to wear a nasal strip when he tries to secure the Triple Crown in the 1 1/2-mile Belmont. Other Thoroughbreds racing in New York also will be allowed to wear the strips,+ which are designed to improve a horse's breathing by opening nasal passages.

On May 18 California Chrome's trainer Art Sherman contacted the stewards (one representing the New York State Gaming Commission, one representing NYRA, and another representing The Jockey Club) requesting permission to use nasal strips on the horse in the Belmont Stakes. The stewards immediately sought expert analysis from NYSGC equine medical director Dr. Scott Palmer on their use.

"I recommend that the stewards at state-based Thoroughbred racetracks discontinue their ban on equine nasal strips," Palmer said. "Equine nasal strips do not enhance equine performance nor do they pose a risk to equine health or safety and as such do not need to be regulated."

Steve Coburn and Perry Martin's California Chrome has worn a Flair Nasal Strip in each of his past six races, all victories. Palmer said nasal strips are not performance-enhancing.

"While there is research to indicate that equine nasal strips decrease airway resistance in horses and may decrease the amount of bleeding associated with (exercise-induced pulmonary hemmorhage) to some degree, I am unfamiliar with any research indicating that equine nasal strips enable a horse to run faster with nasal strips than without them," Palmer said. "In other words, there is no evidence they have a performance-enhancing effect. Equine nasal strips do not pose a welfare or safety risk to the horse. They are applied to the top of the nose and anyone can see their use prior to a race.

"If improperly applied, equine nasal strips cannot interfere with performance. In my opinion equine nasal strips fall into the same category as tongue-ties."

The stewards considered Palmer's advice and decided to allow the unregulated use of the nasal strips.
