Okay I have done terrible the last couple of Sundays, but this time I’m not hungover so there is no execuse. I did however just randomly flipped over my bookshelf last night
Anyways how I do today will determine what I eat for the week. Enjoy
or
Del Mar
Budget for card: $50
R1: #1 Delta Storm min 8/5
R3: #5 Forest Melody min 2-1, if not use in EX
R4; #7 World War min 3-1
R6: #7 Guns on the Table min 3-1 (going with the pros on this one
R8: G1 Sprint going with #1 Street Boss or #2 Barbecue Eddie. Will
take lowest odds. Seeing how food is on the line, maybe I should go with Barbecue Eddie, he did run well in Dubai earlier this year
Hastings Park
Budget: $50
R3: Taking a chance on #1 Market Bell or #6 Fisherman’s Friend min 4-1
R4: EX and TRI Bets on #6 Puerto Montt #1 Legally Mine & #3 Fire Boss
R6: Betting against the heavy favorite #4 When in Rome
R7: Feature race, there are two horses from the same stable here that
earned me some loot (#4 Damaker & 2 Mozambique) but I’ll put emotion
on the side and take a chance on#5 Juvee Hall or #3 Irish Delta

Bankroll: 636.90
Wagered: 42.00
Returned: 50.65
Bets Hit 2-4
Very weak profit considering I hit half of my bets, proving that I should go for value.
Bets
R2: $3 EX 1,4 $2 Ex 4,1 RETURNED 19.65
Result 1-4-5 with an exacta payout of 13.10
R3: $5 WIN 3
Had to bet on #3 Foxy Like A Cat for losing his jockey twice in previous races. He didn’t do bad coming in 2nd. Should’ve backed this up wiht a place bet which would’ve paid 7.60
R5: Ex Box 6,4,5, 10 $12 total
Result 6-3-9
R7: $20 WP on 3 RETURNED 31.00
Man the odds were at 2-1 when I made this bet, but at the last minute someone made a huge bet making my Win payout 3.50 and the place 2.70.
Will stick to probably 4 $10 Win bets tomorrow, until I’m out of my slump
total bankroll for Hastings now sits at 645.55
Wow I made $13 today, OH JOY

crazy day at Del Mar, with all of the Wins paying over 10.00. And man I got a lot of regrets
Wagered:55.00
Returned:31.50
Bets Hit: 1-5
Total Del Mar Profit July 25-26: 5.50
R1-R3 $12 Pick 3
R1: 3,4,5 R2: 6,5 R3: 4,5
Only one I hit here was the 5 in R2
R2-R3 $8 Daily Double
R2: 6,5 R3:4,5
See above. This was a forced bet that I shouldn’t have made. Until i’m out of my slump I’ll stick with Win bets
R5: $5 Win on 4 Return 31.50
#4 Dr J.J. hit paying 12.60.
R7: $20 Exactor Box 6, 2
Result was 9-2-1. WTF? #6 Speight the Halo started off well then got scarred down the stretch.
R9: $10 Win on 10
My other pick to win #2 Sky Mesa won paying out 17.60. In my pre-picks I even said she was the best horse, but was afraid of her 1st start on turf. Next Time I’ll avoid races with top notch surface flip floppers.
Biggest regret is not even putting $2 on #3 Weekend Escape in R8. Had this horse as a RLS in my pre race picks and he paid 49.20. Next time if one of my RLS over 10-1, I’ll at least put $2.
Back tomorrow, I’ll probably stick to 5 $10 win bets and bet $2 on any of my RLS’s that are over 10-1
