If you scroll down two posts to "Springtime in Kentucky," you'll notice that I suggested taking a shot with Boss Lafitte if Friday's Transylvania Stakes stayed on the turf. I was almost certain it would not, and it was moved to the synthetic main track at Keeneland because of torrential overnight rains in Lexington.
Because Boss Lafitte was 0-for-2 on the synthetic surface at Arlington, losing by a combined total of 15 lengths, I decided not to bet him at 9-1 odds. How prudent, and how unfortunate. He won, paying $21.20, as I cringed. I can't say I should have had him, because my pick was based on turf only. However, he did get a positive workout comment from the Keeneland clocker, and as they say, "Got a hunch, bet a bunch."
Sometimes you cash, and other times you have a good story. Blogs are great places to vent.
