race 9 results: 10-1-5
my third winner of the day, paying 9.30 3.70 and 2.60 to show
my stats were good today 9-3-4-1 I did hit 8 out of 9 in the money 7 out of 9 first or second
now the better news in the ninth I collected $465 and $185 for my win place bets
bet $200 collected $650 = +$450
-$480 +$450 = -$30.80
I also hit my show parlay races seven thru nine it paid $470.60
bet $200 collected $470.60 = +$270.60
-$30.80 +$270.60 = +$240.20
If only I'd hit the first race, what a day it would have been
This ends a lovely spring day, the birds have remained silent. I had a very nice day at the races. A very nice day at that.

the finality of the whole situation is that you bet horribly. you had to be right in 8 of 9 races to barely show a profit, while betting large amounts and showing a minuscule ROI. "if only id hit the first race"? that's the most common comment out of 99% of all horseplayers. if you are putting thousands of dollars through the windows and are right in 8 out of 9 races and only show a profit of $240. then you are doing something wrong.

Mr QH you are correct yesterday should have been an excellent day for me, especially with 7 out of 9 choices being first or second. I did bet horribly & was fortunate to have turned a profit. Today I will be more precise with my bets.
