  Just came from Scioto Downs; did pretty well considering I'm an amateur. Any good tips out there on how to win more?

  Let's go to the basement troll. Go start a thread about my mom. Then I'll send this thread down. It's dead there. Let's do it.

  Have a rich uncle who used to own race horses. He would tell us which horse was shot up and would win. I think they have cracked down more this year as more long shots are winning.

  I just put 10gs on the longshot to win everytime. Im currently living in a van down by the river.

  Horse racing in Ohio was super corrupt. When my uncle owned the horses he pretty much knew who would win what races. I know sometimes he knew which horses had just been given steroids what horses had pieces of sponge up their noses and also when the jockeys had decided to let someone on a bad streak win. This was a few years ago when this all went down so I'm not sure it's still like that. I think they banned one of Ohios most known jockeys David hawk from racing for cheating.

  This I can believe. I dated a girl for four years whose dad was a breeder. We would go to Northfield and he'd go down to the stalls for thirty minutes prior to the start and come back and put 2-3 grand on certain horses and win almost every one. It was crazy. When you say steroids, I assume you mean like Lasix. He used to talk about that.

  I go to Keeneland a couple times every fall and spring and have never come out on top. Next spring I'll be going to the Derby.

  If I had a dollar for every time I was told I had a nice ass, I'd have another dollar.

  That's fifty cents per cheek.

  Not sure what they used to dope the horses up with. The funny thing is he only bought his horses so he could play in the high stake poker games in the owner suites at scioto
