If she's 2-1 or higher, I'M going to the bank.

isn't that what folks said about MTB at the derby (no shot) not that i think lucas will win but he loves to run his mouth and he'll jump on the hype just to get more money on the filly. 2 to 1, by post she'll be closer to 6-5 i'm thinking and thats what the other barns want because most likely she will lose. the water gets way deeper for her saturday and we shall see, its easy to look great against inferior horses. i'll be a believer if she jogs saturday but my money will bet against that. if you bet her you will have the weight of every chump out there that reads the hype and jumps on board, including folks that don't really bet horses. wayne lucas is no fool he even knows that and so do the other barns that will be betting their horses. the more people pile on the happier the other contenders will be, trust me.
