The second leg....trainer/lonespeed plus getting 5 lbs from the field and even the lone 3yr old (Morning line 2nd choice) was giving weight to him and I just thought he would be brave enough to hang around at the finish.
I am not going to lie, I really thought El scorpio would go off around 9-2 but 12-1 was a classic overlay when social meetings like Delmar and Saratoga are running because the fancy crowds bet jockey's and favorites.
