Second to last day at the Spa and if you ask me it is one of the more indecipherable days. I’ve had a great meet with tons of longshot winners. Yesterday I started out on fire with five winners in the first five races, with four my top selection. Here are my results for Saturday:
- 1st – $5.10 win, $10.20 exacta
- 2nd – $$12.60 win, $51 exacta
- 3rd – $12 win, $346 P3
- 4th – $4.10 win, $54 exacta, $212.50 P3
- 5th – $4.90 win, $83 P3, $762 P4, $2,805 P5
- 8th – $19.80 win, $187 exacta
- 9th – $5.50 win
- 10th – $4.40 win, $35 exacta, $178 P3
My personal balance sheet for the day was approximately +$2,300. Now, I don’t do that well every day, but I’ve had a lot of days this meet where I’ve done at least that well. The key is having win money on the overlays, betting exactas with confidence, and occasionally getting into the Pick pools. For me, and this would be my best advice to people, consistency and patience are critical to realize profit. . This week I’ll try to do a post mortem on my Saratoga meet. I’ve seen a lot of people complain about how tough the meet has been. I’d say there were some mystifying days, but overall there was a lot of money there for the taking and I took my share. While the exact amount is between me and the IRS, my profit for the meet has five figures in it! Good luck to everyone today whether you look at my picks or not.
