Congrats to whomever won.

Two of my four key horses scratched and one of the remaining two was beaten by 50 lengths (Perfect Drift). Still I did manage to hit the win, exacta, trifecta and singled-Pick 3 with Babae for an $878 total. I was a little disappointed because I was hoping for a better payoff but Voodoo Dancer scratched late cutting the probable prices considerably. Of course, I should not complain since she might have won, had she entered.

Depending on the "official" scratch rules (I was the "only bet this horse if the wind is blowing from the southeast" entry...hey, at least I did not bet any parlays...), the scratch of Trancendental might leave me with another $200, which would put me in the black for the day. That total is certainly not going to win the contest but at least it's a semi-respectable finish.

Anyone that picked Sarava deserves to win. Another jump-up Belmont winner...

Thanks again to TGJB for sponsoring.
