Had Sovereignty straight across the board and won $204.76 on the bet!

Mostly due to return of Bob Baffert. He is the Event whether people like it or not.

I think gambling availability helps, too.

Legalized gambling bailed out the big TV networks. Second order effects

Social media bitches have made the derby explode in popularity recently. It used to be seedy and horse racing as a whole was declining in popularity. But now it’s a social status thing.

You actually believe that? He has no chance with his string in Kentucky where actual horsemen train. Its different now. He can't get away with juicing like he does in California. Notice his numbers in the last 3 years outside California (excluding CD due to his suspension). Its over for him and he knows it.

There wasn't a horse in that race on Saturday that hasn't been 'juicing' at some point in its life. Its a dirty sport full of shady people. Its no different than track and field. Baffert brings eyeballs that's just reality.

This and the Masters are two events with great traditions that make them super unique. Feel like they have been gaining popularity due to that.

I'm still trying to find out what a $5.00 exacta paid.
Can I assume you multiply the $2.00 exacta by 2.5 ?
$48.32 X 2.5 $120.80 ?
My wheel ticket cost $60.00 (120.80 - 60.00) so I won $60.80

Mostly due to the tik tok star having a horse.
Baffert really did run oh so well in the derby. Jock should get days for the Bayern reboot gate ride he was instructed to do. Baffert is a true piece of shite human being.

He’s just trolling aspy, but I’m happy to play my part. One day, Bob…

Yep. Someone in here mentioned the Masters, but for the wrong reason.
