Doghouse Posted for Friday

Very bad card. Too many maidens.

The later races are better so take it easy. Grand Slam looks like a good bet today.

Good luck!

Probable Doghouse on Friday

Unless plans change, I will post another Doghouse for Friday.

Been going up and down all last weekend.

Need to hit a good one.

Saturday Doghouse Posted

Had a good day yesterday with the weather clearing up later in the day. Hit both exactas on the Doghouse ($17.20 and $42.40) plus the Grand Slam. Now heating up and ready to move to positive territory.

Posted a Doghouse for today which I didn't think that I would do. Later races are better.

Good luck!

Friday Doghouse Posted

Today is a day that you should keep your money in your pocket. Except that I am a slow learner.

Handicapped for wet, although I have not had good luck on a sealed track. We'll see if all the races are taken off the turf.

Check it out at Meet Mr. X, Doghouse Confidential, or on the Racing Calendar.

Good luck and take it easy today. Very easy.

Friday Doghouse to be Posted

Looks like wet, rainy, and cool for Friday.

We will try again to move in the profitable direction. Broke even on Sunday with two good exactas and the Haskell exacta of Any Given Saturday over Hard Spun. Hit a couple during the week, so we are making progress.

I will post sometime before 10 am on Friday, August 10.

Good Karma Doghouse Posted

Forget the reference to Stella. I didn't know the story.

Now for Earl Hickey. Took the day off yesterday and picked two races at the pool. Hit the first one (exacta $152) five times. Then hit the triple in the feature for Mrs. X (1/2 of $750), who will be eternally grateful (for the track season). The karma is changing from bad to good.

Let's see how we do today. Not a bad card and beautiful weather.

As always, click on the Doghouse Confidential at Meet Mr. X or go to the Racing Calendar.

Good luck and good karma!

Doghouse to be posted for Sunday, August 5

The yelping sound you hear is the flogging Mr. X is absorbing at the track.

Not doing well at all. Bad picks, bad rides, stumbling at the break: the whole catastrophe.

We'll try again tomorrow.
