  • Winplacsho · I'm an idiot for playing pick 3s, I just need to stick with straight bets in BC races, they pay good enough as it is. Plus, the races are so competitive its tough to string 3 in a row. I only used Caleb's Posse & Trappe Shot in pick 3's. I instead should've been focusing on nail the trifecta & 10-cent super. · 93 days ago ·

  • hoosierbred77 · I believe we have the one of the best if not the best 2 year-old colt in the country named Alumni. Broke his maiden at first time asking while equaling the track record at 5 furlongs. Has any of the top 2 year-olds in the country done that or have bettered his time? The answer is no! · 179 days ago ·
