I once won with a 20-1 shot horse

I rode a horse and won with a 20-1 shot. The cool thing was that the horse figured. I read the PP's and the horse was real solid and had a fair shot. The other horses all had speed and this horse was a closer. I sat back and waited and with 3/8 out I started maing my move. The pp's you build really can help when playing the horse racing game. The only issue was I won the race in privite mode so the points did not count and no one can see the info in my community stats .

What can I say

I'd say about 6-1. But I did

I'd say about 6-1. But I did ride a 36-1 shot and he was the only speed in the race. So I had an easy lead and tried to slow the pace down out front. Coming down the lane he got tired and finished second beaten by about 2 or 3 lengths.

Well since then I won with a 13-1. I was also second at 20-1 and 30-1. Both of them gave me 800 and 900 points, so I'll take a second at those high odds. I'm finding it more fun to pick a horse that likes to run off the pace and is big odds.

I tried to win with a 99-1

I tried to win with a 99-1 shot just now. He was the only horse to like the mud and the only horse to like to be on the front end. So I took him to the front...the race was 1 3/16th (it was the preakness) and I slowed the pace down. I was in front by 4 with a quarter mile to go and he began to fade. He ended up finishing 7th beaten by about 20 lenghts. I'm going to look for that horse in a sprint race or a mile race next time out.

Wow

I'm impressed. I look for horses with the top speed and stamina, although in sprint or shorter races I don't worry about the stamina as much, and if they like the track. Of course, these usually end up being the favorites, so I haven't brought in any longshots yet. I'm definitely impressed by you guys!

compare racing times on horses

What is a lot of fun is the ability to compare your racing skill against others by drilling into the stats on your profile page. 1 example is click on your best or top jocket stats in the game and then click on the race horse names and you can see how your win % compares to the rest of our horse racing community on the same horse. If you click again you will see who has the best times (race times) on the horse for that racing distence in the entire game. This way you can see if you are the best jockey for certain horses by both win % and the horses time by distence have fun in our computer horse racing game. It is like being at the real race track in the middle of all the great horse racing action

RE: compare racing times on horses

I didn't even know you could do that, Puddles! It looks like surprisingly I have best times on Bull Run for 10f and 6f, and for Vanilla Gorilla in 8f.

First 99-1

My first 99-1 came in private mode the other day. It was with Better Talk Now in the Breeders Cup Turf. It was his first race on my file and his odd's were 99-1. I also put $1,000 to win just to see how much I would get back if I won and it was a little over $100,0000. I'm not sure how many points I got because I was a little mad that I did it in private mode.
