Opening day at Del Mar is July 16th. LilyGirl would like to bring you some luck! This Lucky Bamboo pendant necklace is sure to do the trick. Win it by posting a comment here and sharing your favorite betting tip. We'll select the best one and post it and the winner, July 15th!
My best betting tip is usually not to bet at all, save your money and use it to by some LilyGirl stuff.. But... if I do bet, I will usually have my kids say good luck to the money I am going to gamble with and their sweet wishes usually do the trick... sounds nuts, but it works a good percent of the time...
ReplyDeleteMy best betting tip dates back many generations...look for any combination of three. It might be a jockey who has won 3 races, a number or a color horse, colored silks, post position, owner or trainer. It has never failed! Bob's grandfather called it the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. It happens everytime! You can use your winnings to buy tons of beautiful Lily Girl pieces-in 3s perhaps!
ReplyDeletewell, so much for my first blogging adventure, let me try this again,

Very fist time I went to del Mar was with a friend who is a trainer at the San Louis Rey Downs...never having bet before she took me under her wing and helped me...we made a bet and then I added to it not thinking that I should tell her. ...well I won! :) Just because I bet an additional dollar bet and did not know what the heck I was doing and won $197.00 . One of those tri-acta thingys...well when I screamed I won! and she didn't..you should have seen the look on her face...little did I know that first time rule..."First Timers Usually Always Win" and I did...so fun! Hope I win......Talk about LUCK! It was a blast of a day...Okay when are you sending me my Lucky Bamboo pendant...?
ReplyDeletePS I did not make this up...
Hi Denise! Your stuff is amazing! Ok my betting tip is to choose a horse with a great name. That is how I choose, I find the one with the name that really stands out to me for whatever reason and then bet away. I don't bet a lot so I have never won anything over $2 but it is fun! Good luck! :-)Kyah
ReplyDeleteDefinitely study the name of the horse, design of the silks, and aesthetics of the horse. Beauty above any and all stats ... who cares about that stuff anyway, too dry. Never bet more money than you spend on lattes in one week. Finally, follow all superstitions the day before going to the race .. knocking wood, giving or keeping a found coin, whatever.
ReplyDeleteMy betting tip is- A shot of silver patron when you get there. The day will be great no matter if you win or not. Good friends, Good times.

I have to admit I've lived in San Diego for a while and never been to watch the races, but my betting tip would be to never bet more than you can afford to lose.
ReplyDeleteI just love your jewelry and this pendant is especially adorable!
Call Jack!!! He's a Pro and a Sweetheart!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOtherwise...I recommend checking w/Lily...she has as much luck as you or I @ picking a WINNER!!!
I also like Mona's advice of betting w/ Mr. Patron! GOOD LUCK!
Number 4 is my number. This year I will be 54, so exacta combinations of 4,5 and 8 (my birth month) Always pick the cutest jockey (oh wait, Gary Stevens is retired!) and never forget to bet on a horse whose name speaks to you. Silver Patron Shot
ReplyDeletesire:Mr.Patron mare:Silver Shot
My friend, Mona and I co-owners of Silver Patron Shot. It is so much fun!
Bet the longshots. I don't like to mess around with my money to only win a few bucks. I wanna win big! So, bet $2 accross on the longest shot on the board, every race...it'll pay off some day! Hello, Roan Shark!
ReplyDeleteBet your numbers...your age, your birthday, mine is August 8th, so this year it's 08/08/08, guess what I'll be betting? Have a double del margarita too!
