Live dog and horse races are so much fun, Jewels. You should try and go sometime just for the experience. Making bets can be tricky for newbies but brush up online so when you go, you know what bet you want to make and just have to fill in the dog or horse numbers.

Thanks for that, cb3. "
I went to the site and did see the $25 free for registering with them. I'm going to sign up and give it a try.

Here is the lineup. The number 11 horse, Hopportunity, is out with a sore left front foot. His trainer, Bob Baffert of Nogales, Arizona, said after he pulled the horse .... We missed a Hopportunity. -- Edited by Mben on Friday 2nd of May 2014 10:19:34 PM

I pick Chitu

 

[Mben]

Here are the new odds. Uncle Sigh will be in my line up as my long shot. I love Duck Dynasty! lol<a href="http://www.courier-journal.com/story/sports/horses/triple/2014/04/30/kentucky-derby-140-post-positions/8511479/" >source</a>

I picked Chitu because I liked the name, I don't know anything about horse racing so all my picks will be based on names. I picked that one for the name and because he was number 13.

I can't sign up there. I get the message You must be from an eligible state to open an account online. Darn it! Thanks anyway, cb3.

All I have to say is damn the #17 horse .... Commanding Curve. Watch how he was almost dead last the whole way and ended up in second place. It's easier to watch the numbers at the bottom of the video.My long shot Uncle Sigh was in first place for a bit and had me pumped until he petered off and ended up in 14th place.I had the top 6 (excluding #17) on my tickets and only needed the !st and 2nd place horses. Ugh! Results ...<table>Pos.PostHorseJockeyTrainerLengths15California ChromeVictor EspinozaArt Sherman-217Commanding CurveShaun BridgmohanDallas Stewart1 3/434DanzaJoe BravoTodd Pletcher3420Wicked StrongRajiv MaraghJimmy Jerkens5 3/456SamraatJose OrtizRick Violette Jr.5 3/4612Dance With FateCorey NakataniPeter Eurton6 1/4719Ride On CurlinCalvin BorelBilly Gowan6 3/4814Medal CountRobby AlbaradoDale Romans7 1/2913ChituMartin GarciaBob Baffert8107We Miss ArtieJavier CastellanoTodd Pletcher8 1/4118General A RodJoel RosarioMike Maker8 1/41216Intense HolidayJohn VelazquezTodd Pletcher91318Candy BoyGary StevensJohn Sadler11 3/4143Uncle SighIrad Ortiz Jr.Gary Contessa15 [video=http://youtu.be/j1hZ7d-gLnw][/video]

I was wondering how you did all weekend. Did you win anything at all?

I played 6 races (2 tickets on the derby) and won 1 race. It was brutal but we had a great time anyway. It's ok. The beer afterward made me forget that I was a loser. hahaha

 

[Jewels]

LMAO! It looked like it was fun and exciting! So glad you enjoyed yourself. I had your kind of weekend minus the horses. LOL
