  1. On your record to date you must have failed basic math,esp. if your first pick counts as the main one otherwise those two picks cost $ 4 x race. Anyway, seems like you really missed them all today Unless you consider one of your secondary choices,a puny favorite, a Winner which in this case cost you money. Ahahah !👁️ Your picks remind me of that Little guy,and his wife,Debbie,who Constantly picked M L favs in both harness and flats all What happened to ” K .Pettyjohn ” ?? Got lost in his mailing address ????
