4th choice @ 6-1. Potentially good value here.

What does this mean? She's been picked up for another race?

 

[Boner_18]

It means the track handicapper has set her opening odds at 6-1. This is only indicative of the final odds she'll pay, they can be way off. Those are based on her share of the parimutual betting pool.

 

[Boner_18]

But yes, she's racing on 8/10. That's the bottom half of the screenshot I posted on Sunday.

 

[roguejuror]

ah I didn't notice the bottom part of the image, I got lost when I saw the money figure

 

[Boner_18]

 

[Boner_18]

She got claimed for 30k.

 

[Vegas Dave]

She got claimed for 30k.

Good news?

 

[Boner_18]

Yep. Wish she had won and also got claimed but all good.

 

[Boner_18]

Probably a small loss on her (1-2k?) and she was fun. First runner ever in my silks.

On to the next one.

 

[Archie]

Agreed! Hopefully you get some more fun ones to follow along with in the future Bone Bone.

 

[roguejuror]

[Boner_18]

There are many more.

Next up is an auction at end of month.

Racing won't happen until 2025 at the earliest...

 

[Blitty]

Nice job, but you are still a distant second place, from being as wealthy and successful as coug bait.

Next up is a 5 day ebay style auction for two horses I am partner on. Hips 66 (foal) and 118 (foals mom). Starts at noon today:
