Yes, the Saratoga one was the best one yet. Here\'s what you didn\'t see.
The photo from day one they showed early cost me the contest. Not as tough a beat as that South American SOB winning the Marathon and costing me the Pick 6, but bad enough. The one between horses (Terminus) was getting banged around most of the stretch, finally got some room, came on and and lost the bob. I played two tickets, had him as my double bet on both, at 13-1 (the cap was 15-1). I made the lead halfway through the second day without that, before ending up seventh. If I won that photo I would have been first (by a lot) and fourth. First was 100k.
That\'s the photo loss I was talking about with Christian (\"karma\"), they showed the conversation out of sequence with the race.
Second, they shot me, Christian and Bob Levy around a table at the sales. I said, \"Buying yearlings is like if the NBA had a draft for 9 year olds who had never touched a basketball, and people picked them based on what they looked like and who their parents were\". The didn\'t use the conversation, but liked the line so much they had Beychok say it, changing it to Michael Jordan in kindergarten.
Michael, I forgive you. Give me an address, I\'ll send you a hat. And one for Carville.
