BETTING WITH BOB : MAN VS. MICROCHIP

I moved back into the plus column when Larkishness and Glassware ran 1-2 for a $142 profit in the fourth race exacta. Northern Cache, our exacta key in the fifth, ran second, beaten a nose by Valdez Pride. The two horses I used with Northern Cache, Cherokee Kiss and Startling, ran third and fourth.

For today, I’ll bet $20 to win on Lovely Habit in the fifth race.

As for my computer counterpart, its pick in the eighth race, Nijinsky’s Lover, ran second. Also both of its exactas failed to connect for a total loss of $50.
