In one of the other threads somebody posted a video featuring many of the older stakes races at Del Mar.
I ended up watching the whole thing.
Several minutes in: The video started featuring races I had actually played.
One of the horses featured in the video was Brown Bess who beat a horse I played named Daring Doone.
That was about the time full card simulcasting came to Turf Paradise.
And like a 6 year old in the cereal aisle, great analogy btw:
Every time she showed up in a stakes race I was determined to beat her (upping my bet each time) to no avail.
Her
Equibase Profile shows her winning 11 of 18 during her 1988 and 1989 seasons.
So yeah, I know the feeling.
And lesson (eventually) learned.
