BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted May 2, 2009 BassResource.com Administrator Posted May 2, 2009 I placed a $2 bet on Mine That Bird at the Kentucky Derby and won $100! Not bad, eh? Quote
Super User Matt Fly Posted May 2, 2009 Super User Posted May 2, 2009 Congrats, I wanted to wheel the 16 on a exacta box. But didn't make it to Lone Star due to weather. 1 dollar exacta paid 1037. Quote
Super User cart7t Posted May 2, 2009 Super User Posted May 2, 2009 That horse looked like it was shot out of a cannon at the end of the back straight. Quote
Super User Marty Posted May 2, 2009 Super User Posted May 2, 2009 That horse looked like it was shot out of a cannon at the end of the back straight. Exactly. Those overhead shots were great!! Quote
Super User Muddy Posted May 3, 2009 Super User Posted May 3, 2009 Skilled Jockey: Not one challange for bumping! I don't bet anymore I liked the Lukas Entry in a Quinella with the horse that stumbled. The finished 19 and 23 out of a field of 20 ;D Quote

1inStripes Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 I would have liked to have hit the superfecta. Turning $2 into 556+k isn't a bad days work. Quote
Super User Long Mike Posted May 3, 2009 Super User Posted May 3, 2009 Glenn, when I read that you had won, I walked into the den to tell my wife. As soon as I uttered the words Kentucky Derby, she started telling me a story about one of her clients. The client's parents were heading for the Derby, so he handed them a thousand dollars to bet on a horse that he KNEW was going to win. Well, being somewhat elderly, they put the money on the wrong horse. He won fifty grand! Quote
mase088 Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 My roommates Dad did exactly the same thing after my roommate convinced his Dad to change his mind. Bet $2, win $100, not a bad deal if you ask me. Quote
Super User Sam Posted May 3, 2009 Super User Posted May 3, 2009 Congrats. The Bait Monkey is proud of your achievement and awaits you. Quote
