Yesterday’s Activity<\/strong>: All right, all right, ya robot-justice fansz! We say this only one time: Where else on the Interwebsz are you going to get a free $942.80 daily double tout involving only two combinations? Where? <\/p>\nCheck out the BetFail TV channel: So many chicklets, so-called, and they just leave a sour taste in your mouth. Criss-crossing combos, and they won’t come close to paying $942.80 for your daily double. Huckstersz! They just want you to buy all their comboasz! Comboasz! Huckstersz!<\/p>\n
So, yes, here was that free $942.80 daily double tout, two horseys in the first leg, one horsey in the next, $4 outlay, $942.80 daily double in the span of about an hour. <\/p>\n
In that $942.80 daily double, the horseys were, in Gulf 7, Bonkersmate Our Caravan, a first-timer in a wild heat, competitive connection line of 28pc\/14pc\/NA (no previous tries), and at Fair Odds of 6-1 on the conventional Betting Line, anyway. He won at $73.40.<\/p>\n
Then in Race 8 there, sole-touted Rope a Dope, ignored by the Betting Line in a wide-open configuration, 8-1 on the morning line. Rope a Dope had a fine LifeLiner Speed Column number, 86, though, second-best in the lineup. Rope a Dope ran as his complete LifeLiner Array suggested, 68-70-86, and held on by a desperate half-length at $19.20 up top. <\/p>\n
Our Caravan and Rope a Dope combined for a $942.80 daily double, all right there on the page for you, $4 ventured, $942.80 gained. (Is that number of $942.80 ingrained into your memory by now?)<\/p>\n
On the pay-side, a milder daily double of $108.20 on the last two races at Turfway, making for an extra-crunchy KING OF THE NETCAPPER BULLIESZ SPECIAL. The two winning horseys paid $13.20 and $7, way bet-down from at least 8-1 on their morning lines.<\/p>\n
For your pleasure and our humility, now we welcome you to The Home of The Runner-Up Finish, this time led by the following:<\/p>\n
Crc 6 HM Codero 14-1
\nHol 4 HM top-touted Senator Bob 10-1
\nHol 6 HM Cuneo sole-touted 10-1
\nLrl 4 HM sole-touted I Run to You 15-1
\nTam 4 HM sole-touted It Takes Heart 40-1, beaten ¾ length
\nTuP 7 HM sole-touted Love Makor 13-1<\/p>\n
Of these, there were makable saver perfectas of $26, $26 and $75. Not the best there.<\/p>\n
However, there was a Race 7 monster at the Remington Park, with top-touted Keg winning at $18-even and Bonkersmate Okietate, 10¢ shy of 47-1 on the toteboard, completing your winning $551.80 Bonkers Exacta Box. In fact, Okietate, wild longshot, was the top LifeLiner Speed Column horsey in the field. <\/p>\n
Closing out the eventful evening were two winners at Retama: top-touted Honor Lisabeth at $12.40 in Race 6, and sole-touted Cowboy Ed, $24.20, in the ninth. The ninth was the last race on the card, and you know what that means: KING OF THE NETCAPPER BULLIESZ SPECIAL. <\/p>\n
Random childhood memory: Keystone Racetrack, Cornwells Hts., Penna., late-1970s, second-level, one of the citizens screaming at the old Motorola TV hanging from the ceiling as jockey Anthony S. Black was driving his horsey to victory in the stretch: “Eat ’em up, Tony! Eat ’em up!”<\/p>\n
Eat ’em up. Better than Star Trek all day, better than Katnip Evergreen now, better than Game of Thornsz ever.<\/p>\n
