Yes I was thinking Sis City should be at least 20/1 in here. Now at 5/1? Huh?

Why do I feel I should be putting a bet on Sis City right now and kissing my Velazquez P-3 goodbye?

Dont do it. Stick with your bets. Changing bets because of odds is often a very dumb thing to do. I only brought this up because I thought Sis City was 20/1 in this spot.

$60 win 9
$40 ex box 9-2
$20 Doubles 9/3,7,8

I am rarely a big advocate of short priced horses, especially off layoffs, but isn't Melhor Ainda in a completely different league than these horses?

I have a small backup with Brunilda but barring an incident I think the favorite is a mortal lock here.

Buddy, Brunilda was scratched hours ago. Not sure what kind of backup you can have there

Sorry, I meant Bright Abundance.

I decided to try and get Natalie Beach into the exacta, or triple, as she is WAY too big a price. Only used the fav on top.

Does anyone know what the percentages are for the rider/trainer combo of Obrien and Velasquez over the last two years? For some reason, I remember betting this combo before with success although JV doesnt take many mounts from him.

People are fools. The idea that she's the same price as Brunilda, less than half the price of Natalie beach, and almost half the price of Thetactics ofDance is ludicrous. It's not even like she's lone speed with Miss Matched, and even the ridiculous Midtown Miss, to insure at least an honest pace.

Add all that to the fact that she can't run anymore and she might be the worst 5-1 of all time.
