If it makes you feel any better, I am not doing very well this year. I don't bet very often to begin with, but I'm having a tougher time than ever finding something I think is an overlay in any of the major stakes. I've only made 6 prime bets so far this year and they all lost. The good news is that the favorite I was betting against finished off the board in every case except Badge of Silver Saturday and I wasn't expecting him to run poorly. I just thought he could get beat at 9F. Maybe the track helped him.
I have to tell you though, I haven't come out of any of the races feeling that drugs were a factor in my loss even if some of the horses are drugged. The races were fairly formful. The vulnerable favorites have run poorly. My horses just didn't the get job done.
