    Lol I do that every year! As a horsewoman, I prefer to choose on the approach. I like to gauge stride versus control, weighed against composure.. That and their stats and racing history tells you a lot about the horse that will 'show up' in the race to be run!

    One of my "claims to fame"

    I had this horse at 36-1
    I hit the tri, I hit the exacta.
    I had a friend from this board at home, following the race for me. I was working, and didn't own a smart phone at the time.

    She calls me and says...

    You want the good news? Or do you want the REALLY GOOD NEWS???

    She knew I had just won THOUSANDS!!!!

    no one picked American Pharaoh?

    i didn't bet nor did i have any clue as to who the horses were. I usually go by names that I like.
    Would have picked either Carpe Diem or Danzig Moon though

    Buddy at work hit the tri.

    I POUNDED the 10 across the board.
    Threw out the winner. ..I never take the favorite. Which ended up kicking me in the nutcicles. ...

    The tri was pretty dammed simple....
    oh well

    Front runner again unfortunately.  Underdogs don't win anymore.  

    I still bet the goofy odds hoping for a silly pay out though.
