My liking the 6 at 5-1 had a lot more to do with disliking anyone else in this field than finding positives with the 6.
And yes, Scott, I wasn't thrilled with Lanerie riding the 3. I threw out in my pk5 because I expected the horse to be 6-5 in this field, but at 6-1 on a Jacobson in a field of mules, I thought it was worth a shot. Like I said, at 5-1, I would have bet the 6 as I really thought the 1 would be, and was, way over bet. Of course, I overlooked the fact that it takes a competent rider to get a speed horse out of the gate quickly.
