Lightning struck once again, as it does in this game for so many .The National Pick 4 paid $11 grand for $1.00 dollar as I got nosed at the wire by a 91-1 shot...The horse I had was Perfect Drift at 10-1 who was also upset by a horse ridden by Greta Kuntzweiler a few years ago at Hawthorne.Some great horses have bad luck or are habitual for seconditis.Being nipped they remain in graded races collecting nice paychecks for showing up and not winning...
... It was equally upsetting in New York I had Bill Motts $40.00 horse going into a pick 3 to finish 2nd in the last race beaten by Mike Smith/Clemente (also eligible who drew in...) That paid just under $1200.00....
I guess the racing Gods cant always be with us and it pays to go a little deeper at times....and not rely on chronic losers...
