BETTING WITH SURELOCK : THE SILICON SLEUTH

Share via

SURELOCK’s problem is simple: Most of the horses it bets suffer from equine agoraphobia, the fear of an empty expanse of turf surface between a horse and the wire. Saturday’s case was Greensmith, who was second in the stretch, apparently became frightened, and finished seventh.

The computer’s bet for today is $100 to win on Itsallgreektome in the eighth race.

SURELOCK’s Sat. Bankroll: $1,499

Saturday’s Loss: $100

Current Bankroll: $1,399

Janice Goldinger made a $21 profit when her three-horse exacta box hit in the fifth race, but gave all but $1 back when Silver Cutlass finished third in the sixth race.

Janice’s bets for today are a $10 early daily double, Guard Your Pocket to Flying Paper, and a $5 exacta box of Lordalik-Chess Set-Hollywood Hays in the ninth race.
