I am changing my opinion on Lovango, he is the nuts here. You won't see 3/1 though, you want any value on him, you better play him on the end of a P3......

I know the price is going to be short and I was going to try to single him on a couple of pick-3s or in the pick-4, and try to catch a decent price in the other legs.

It will all be chalky, don't force it. There are only three horses that can win the 7th, and the 6th and 8th are pretty cut and dry. I might only be playing two tickets the whole day there now

6: 3
7: 3,5,8
8: 9

7: 3,5,8
8: 9
9: 8

Probably both of them for $100...If both Much Obliged and Lovango win, I have a 5k day, if one of them wins, I probably get 2500....

Yea, I didn't really look too deeply into the races surrounding it yet, so I didn't know how chalky it looks or doesn't look. If it looks like that, I'll just play it more times like you will....though perhaps not quite as many.

I don't think they carded the races very effectively, they should have put that MSW as the last race of the card, and made it Guineas/Hashin/Classic/MSW for the late P4

They are carding an hilarious race for the last race because of that damn Super High Five crap

Plus they sent out a bunch of free bets on it for tomorrow too (sent me a $5 one).

Well on the bright side, that hilarious last race looks fairly easy to get out of with 2-3 horses MAX.

They'd have been better served though, by swapping the 7th with the 11th. They get a bigger field, a more wide open event, and a better p4 and more likely Hi5 carry, because the current 11th looks a bit chalky to me.

Oh well.
