who in the hell bet her down to 1/5? she has shown that she is constantly not that good on synthetic surfaces... dirt maybe.. maybe.... synthetics she hasn't won a race yet.

What kind of idiot would bridgejump on Hystericalady on a surface that everyone knows she doesn't like? Are there handicappers out there that braindead?

ovbiusly so because she was sure enough 1/5. I didn't make a bet, mostly becuase i was watching Arkansas beat the crap out of florida, but i wouldn't have bet anyway. I didn't know who was going to win, i just din'think it would be her.

hum.. interesting new bet... the AGAINST bet. i don't know who is going to win.. but this horse isn't.

I think that if you bet against every bridgejump throughout the year and bet the others to show, you have to make money. Think about those races now and then where the show prices are $70, $100, and $150 in a single race...how many losing bets will a single race make up for?

Hysterical Lady was a mare running on a surface that she hates - why not take a shot and bet the other four to show? Worse comes to worse, you'll get 1/2 your bet back.

true but I don't subscribe to the Pittsburgh phil school of money management.. spend a lot to make a little.

I'll stick with what i'm good at.. win bets at opportune times.
