There's no horse screaming at me as a win bet in the sequence. Will be interested to see the board in the 7th. To me, Nine Loves is a 'B' or 'C' horse as you can't let her prevent you from hitting the P6. I'm pretty ambivalent on last leg hedging. Depends on the will pays, coverage and field size. I've tried it a variety of ways and have no set opinion, making judgement at the time.
