So what. Have you taken a look around the track and noticed the stooges who make those odds? Have you never seen a 50-1 shot win before? I made $9,000 on a 99-1 shot once that I had been following for months. Her name was Perfect Companion and I'm sure glad her driver decided to "try" despite his odds that night.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560898823512627114.post-12453986244654834392009-01-31T16:44:00.000-05:002009-01-31T16:44:00.000-05:00I have even a better idea.

To prevent the single file racing which may occur, may I suggest a slow quarter rule for the horses behind the leader just sitting? <BR/><BR/>As for Cangamble's concern, you can tell when a horse is making a move or backing up from tiring. It is the case of the person pulling and 'enjoying the view' out there that is the problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560898823512627114.post-37549332091951091492009-01-31T16:00:00.000-05:002009-01-31T16:00:00.000-05:00The infamous "Sears is half in half out with donke...The infamous "Sears is half in half out with donkey to protect position" call?<BR/><BR/>It has been happening more and more it seems.

Keeps leaving from the 8 and 9 hole with 50-1's. Dianna Hall has been 99-1 two and parked trying for the lead.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560898823512627114.post-13835571751454248822009-01-31T13:13:00.000-05:002009-01-31T13:13:00.000-05:00It is just for the period from the quarter to last...It is just for the period from the quarter to last the half where they sit there waiting on cover.

At the start of the second week, wipe the slate clean. Additional penalties if you have more than 5 offences in a month. $5,000 on your 6th.
