I actually think this is a GREAT price...I'm a big fan and made enough lines to know she'll be shorter than that.....she'll be under 10-1 IMO. Hell, she won CD's top Distaff race over the summer and ran pretty fast doing it. I think most of the big players out there know that the 3-year-old division was very weak this year too, which will hurt many of their odds IMO. Yes, Pine Island will be the favorite IMO, but Happy Ticket won't be over 10-1.....the decision you really have to make is taking 11-1 right now with 10 days to go or wait until BC day - when you know she'll be in the gate - and take anywhere from 6/1 - 9-1 IMO depending on any late defections in the field or if she were to work lights out in her final breeze and become a 'buzz' horse.


Your call, but that is a good price IMO - but then again I think a lot of her and believe she is the best distaffer in the country....
