I could only make it to the track on the Saturday and I came late because I was hungover as shit from playing rockband until 4am. Yes I know, no better way to spend a Friday night.

Made only two bets but they both hit:

R5: $5 Win $10 Place on Ginobili 30.50 + 31.00 RETURNED

R9: $20 on low odds favorite Zenyatta in the G2 Hirsch 32.00 RETURNED

I’m assuming she was named after the Police Album Zenyatta Mondatta. As for the other horse; Ginobili had actually loss me money before finishing 2nd about a dozen times. Kind of like how the Spurs failed to cover the spread on several occasions for me this year. Still he was the most consistent runner so the Place backup seemed logical.

Zenyatta is hands down the best horse I’ve seen this year. She is perfect with 7 wins in 7 races and would probably give Curlin and Big Brown a challenge. Others seem to agree.

Anyways I also did a pick 3 experiment this weekend on Hastings and Del Mar, but I’m keeping those separate from my regular betting totals.

Even though this was the biggest weekend at Hastings, I did not put on single dollar on any of the races and I didn’t even attend Cup Day. Kinda of like the same reason why I won’t watch Dark Knight. I am just so anti-anything that is popular.

That is why my life sucks right, but hey at least I’m doing okay at Del Mar.
