@TheNYRA@andyserling@acacia_clement Just a word of advice when many once-per-year bettors are on the line: When you advertise that Free Equibase PPs are available at the NYRA download site, make sure that you have the current day's races - downloading April 30th PPs only hurts newer players.
@TheNYRA@NYRABets Does anyone actually check that the current day's past performances are available? Right now, heading to BAQ's second race, the Free Equibase PPs are NOT available.
@EvanRobertsWFAN We need to differentiate BRAND and TEAM. The NYM "brand" is what we are trying to cheer-on, but just don't have the heart - Steve Cohen take note. Meanwhile, the NYM team ended last season thanks to David Stearns. Brand vs. Team. I hate this team and, now, dislike the brand.
@RepoleStable Be honest, Mike - you would switch for Post 15 with Emerging Market. I just hope Renegade does not get the Arch Arch Arch treatment leaving the gate.
@RepoleStable@TheUFL What do you think the net-asset value of your UFL might be? Your best strategy is to partner with the NFL now to see which of 2 of these 8 markets generate sufficient interest for expansion and work towards an ABA->NBA deal. Try to avoid demanding a meeting in 48 hours.
@andyserling OK - then I can disclose my answer. Wasn't the movie that included Robert Montano (as a male dancer) Chicago from 2002? You are thinking about another movie? Will need to look it up.
@andyserling That was the most gut-wrenching loss that I have had in an Aqueduct winter season of gut-wrenching losses. How many impossible bobs can run me down this meeting? I take solace that the USWNT Hockey won gold.
@andyserling Is charting dead? During the early betting on Race 2, there was ~$5000 in the double pool into Race 3. The 3-2 double (Antonio of Venice into Tiote) was 6-1. Yes, early but ~$650 bet into Tiote in the early wagering? Meanwhile, 37-1 in Race 3. Easy game?
@andyserling Keep digging and you will find Awesome Empire over Cocktailsnkringle in race 3. The "ride of the day" from today's third was Civaci's attempt to come 5-wide with favored Exploration. That was special.
@andyserling Deep? Like outer space deep? If Our Preferred Pal could not win in that MSW race with both Eagle Rising and Juliet on Approach not running more than four furlongs, when? If it helps, I had Tahila last time at 111-1 in the "big bet" fiasco.
@andyserling During the Winter 2025 season, you'll recall that I was a Savin Civaci cheerleader. Since his injury in November, he just looks tentative and that seems to be translating to his not getting into the right positions. That lack of aggression is costing him both mounts and wins.
@andyserling The "other Rudy", Baron of Sealand, gets it done after the scratch of Leftembehind. Price at 9/2 was helped by the terribly overbet Curvino.
@andyserling Both Devine Leader (R6) and Leftembehind (R7) were among my interesting plays of the day while Purple and Gold (R5) was my bet-against - talk about three scratches changing the shape of those races for me.
@andyserling@jockeyfranco When was the last time we saw seven furlongs in 1:30 2/5 on the NYRA Circuit? (Seriously, I have no idea of the answer on this one.)
@andyserling Like you, I liked Jackson Heights, but in retrospect, wasn't the 5-1 on Aggregation better value than ours at 9/2? Honestly, Aggregation is the kind of all-or-nothing horse that I just rarely can stomach.
@andyserling@mig4450 Trivia Question - Lost in the Fog crossed the country 5 times in 2005 leading up to his first loss in the BC Sprint. In every race, he was ridden by Russell Baze except one. What was that race and who rode him? (Hint : Richie finished second on Egg Head.)
