I only put $50 because of the low odds....I hated the post all along Tim. I knew there was no other speed in the race but Tin Man, but I didn't think they would let him get away with murder up front like that. I was more salty about being alive to the NTRA Pick 4 with EC singled in the last. Oh well...he still has done nothing to shame himself this year. 5 races, 3wins, 2 grade 1's.

EC was available at better than 3-1 for up until an hour before the race. Heck, I was offereing 3.3-1 myself. Of course at that point, a "buyer" couldn't be sure that the odds wouldn't be higher in the parimutuals. Since I put EC at 5-1 in my "fair" line, I didn't mind offering 3.3-1. But I'd have done a lot better if I had waited and offered him at 2.8-1 or so once his parimutuals were 2-1. If you have a strong opinion on a horse's chances, you can find some huge overlays and underlays at Tradesports. I got the Tin Man at 10-1. On the other hand, I thought Touch of Land was a deal at 15-1, only to watch him go off at 25-1. --Dunbar

Gorella's run in the Bev D litterally gave me goosebumps....
It was great to meet Jerry Bailey and talk with him for a few minutes, very nice man. That sums up my Million Day.
