It is a sucker bet and everyone knows it. There is absolutely zero way to determine payout which means any serious gambler would avoid it at all costs.
That's exactly why I want to do it now. What a great meet. It used to be Pletcher/Velazequez and then some. Nothing against those two cats, but it sure has been a fun meet.
