Free Online Fantasy Horse Racing Game
https://www.fantasycapping.com/
It’s free and easy. Create your own league, invite your friends and set your own stakes. Or, join a public league and compete against racing fans nationwide. Each week, we'll provide you with all the information needed to pick a winner for that week. After making your selections, you'll place Fantasy Wagers by choosing from one of four easy options. At season's end , the best Fantasy 'Capper in each league will be crowned champion. It's that easy. Place one wager on each race. And it all culminates with North America's richest race - the $5 million Breeder's Cup Classic! Watch the video or click here for more information. ----- If anyone here is interested enough to set up a league, I'll register and at least try to play. Sounds like it might be interesting. I like talking horses, don't get to do it as much as I once did. |

Waiting for someone to setup a league...... I'll try to play but honestly someone else would be better at writing a recap of the standings each week. I'd rant about how lucky they are to be beating me and how my horse got boxed in, stumbled, cut off, or ate too much before the race maybe.

It takes two people for it to be active. I'm the only one so far. Race starts at 4:45. Must have your horse picked 10 minutes before post.

Home today with my daughter and I started watching TVG for shits and giggles. Made a few bets with my BoDog account using the studio analysts pick 6 ticket selections and hit 2 $300 trifectas. Pretty solid afternoon.

If you're going to hit something post it in here before hand. Alright? I like balance the books Friday. As far as Saturday and the race if anyone has a good horse other than wise dan I'd like to know why.

With Wise Dan being such an overwhelming favorite, I went with the Exacta box pairing him up with Za Approval. Za Approval then got scratched and I didn't see the email until right before deadline. I hurriedly picked Lea as the second horse. I usually don't pick the two favorites in an exacta, but the scratch caused me to hurry.

I'll take my weak $28 and sheepishly move to the co-lead. Meh.

Two races this weekend and sure one of them will have a higher pay than 3 dollars like last week and 2.80 the week before. Wasn't that interesting of a race but I did put my pick down on the horse that came in 3rd. Actually had it to place. Would have won more betting to show than betting to win on the winner. That race I thought he'd be off the pace a little more and after the winner passed the lead horse the lead horse had a good chance of fading....... Balance the books won but it was two race days later as that race was off turf and he got scratched. Centre court runs Saturday and the jockey change is big in my opinion, he's not in the races for the challenge. Also like Goldencents Sunday, looked very impressive last time out......... it appears I was the only one to place a wager because it didn't show I made one. I've already made mine for this week and one more is needed for it to be official. The races have to get better than the last few weeks with huge favorites, I hope.

Pedroza 20-1 / Took orb strictly because palace malice will be on the lead and John V will press him slightly. Hoping orb is there to pick it up......... Probably way off but if I had to guess on this race, that's what I'd guess would happen. Sunday I think Game on dude will be a big favorite. Dullahan has been working out great for dale romans. That trainer does not work out horses fast, I've had some great winners with that in the past. But with that said, he has ran well since winning at delmar last year. Think he'll like the track and is gaining a little form back from those really bad races, think he'll be a decent price. I feel crazy betting against GOD, but it won't pay anything.

I don't think Palace Malice will get the lead from Moreno. I think Verrazano is a pretty deserving favorite.

It's definitely a much more interesting race than the last two. One of my favorite horses was itsmyluckyday, one of the most consistent horses this year, really disappointed me when he started to make a move on Verrazano and was pulled up injured. Wanted to see what Verrazano would do challenged by a pretty good horse that had been ultra consistent in putting up a good effort. I don't think Verrazano will be within a length of the lead after 5 Furlongs and that's where he's always been when he won. Horses are very strange, I wouldn't bet on him to like it when I've seen so many very good horses not pace well.

Yeah, Palace Malice broke last and probably effected the pace. I took orb because I didn't like the top two and I got rewarded with nothing.......... Centre Court was my favorite horse racing for months. Two races back the jockey ran her up into a wall of horses and got bounced around. Then the next race she had a good trip and did nothing. Thought I'd give her one bad race but this makes two in a row without an excuse. Maybe she didn't like getting bounced around. I'll continue to watch this horse but won't take her again unless things change. Tomorrow Goldencents runs. Rosario was scheduled to be on orb but got hurt, he was also on Goldencents. I still like Goldencents as PVal is one of the best all time gate jockeys and has been getting bad mounts after being off racing for 9 months or so. Not the big race at delmar tomorrow but still a graded race.

I took Orb with a show, as I didn't like the favorites. Just couldn't go for the win. Now I'm in first place with the safe bet!

I thought about changing after rosario got hurt but didn't know who to go with and place show didn't cross my mind. Worked out for you.

Thanks in large part to lack of picks I find myself in second place. I did notice a few days ago someone had battier to win a few weeks back. I had him to place. Coming around the turn I would have wanted to switch. Then I got nosed out for second. Both were losers, thought it was interesting him being the longest shot in the race.

I figure this is as good a place to ask as any. We're going to Churchill Downs for a work event on November 13, and I'm told something will actually be going on there. Does anyone have any idea what I should expect, or adviec on what I should do?

One day I'll see a race live there, if I don't get ran over by a train or something..... They do have live racing there that day, wouldn't expect much of a crowd not being a weekend or stakes day but I'd kinda prefer to go when I could turn around and enjoy the facility...... not much help, haven't actually been there.

Yep, sounds like we have meeting stuff in the morning, then races start at 1. We're also told that there's a business casual dress code, and jeans are not allowed -- and that it's because of the location, not the company. So it's probably different horses racing on a Wednesday than a weekend, huh? |

Yeah, you won....... If the mile races were the main ones it might have been different. Went to Louisiana Downs with my uncle to bet the Goldencents race but my uncle got irritated at all the long shots and wanted to leave so I left without betting it. The thing is I asked him before we left if 510 was fine because I wanted to watch the race but then he start nagging me and didn't seem to be having fun so I got the hell out of there. I thought we went there to have fun watching the BC races but he lost all his money on the races before that. So I am not as shitty as a handicapper as I may seem, just better at watching live races and getting a feel for what a horse might do the next time he runs. Congrats. Quote:
Post time should be 12:40. There are more claiming races but usually have a decent allowance race on the card.

Heh, GOLDENCENTS was my best hit of the day Friday. Had a strong win bet of him, and added on a triple as well. Anchored a pretty good day.

Sweet, at least someone profited. I actually had a big double with the favorite the race before but had terrible luck as he went way way way too fast alone on the lead. Left before that race. Almost turned around to drive 10 minutes back to bet goldencents. If I was alone , I would have. Didn't see your post until know qsand, good for you.
