Gulfstream 3-4 contest

**mikemca** · 03-04-11, 02:05 PM

I guess the speed isn't going to hold as well as its been.Which means my picks for the contest have no shot.

**TonyP** · 03-04-11, 02:23 PM

r4 1 might be going the other way 1a might not be able to close into 5.5 6 looks like the one to catch could wire the field

**mikemca** · 03-04-11, 03:09 PM

Nah never played a real contest.

**mikemca** · 03-04-11, 03:18 PM

I'm liking the 9-Joltin Joe alot in the 6th if he stays anywhere near the 7-1 he is at right now

**josicoyote** · 03-04-11, 03:20 PM

Sorry cell phone repeated my post 3 times

using underneath looks like he might flatten. the 6 looks interesting at a price will use underneath as well putting the 3,5 on top over 6,8,9.11

**TonyP** · 03-04-11, 03:30 PM

r6 8 on the cutback off the turf

**mikemca** · 03-04-11, 03:39 PM

Race 7 is impossible.I took a long look at the 3-Celidonia at 20-1 buut didn't have the balls to pick it.The trainer does really well in spots like this.

**TonyP** · 03-04-11, 03:44 PM

yes Mike r7 is tough if you get it right it should pay. thiking the 11 might be a play here with another bomb on top and put several underneath. go deep it offers value. now Im tossing between teh 3 and 4 on top with the 11 3 coming form woodbine ran an even race going 6 might like the added distance and gets lasix 1st time 4 looks like improving horse.

Gulfstream has to have one of the highest averages for win mutual payouts.That is why I always play there.It only takes 1 or 2 wins to profit.While New York ,California,and Fairgrounds is 6 horse chalkfest fields.I agree Tampa is probably one of the better tracks also but their product is kinda like the minor leagues.

Congrads Mike on the win.

**marksinger** · 03-04-11, 05:39 PM

Hi. When someone wins , how do you get your winning points?
I know you have to bet a game after the contest. If your bet loses do you then, not get the points? Thanks

**Poppa Catfish** · 03-04-11, 11:27 PM

Congrats mike on the win
