So you might single one or the other between Rip and Zenyatta but prefer Zenyatta?

I think Zenyatta is much more likely to win. But it's racing and anything can happen and I think if for some reason, she doesn't get it done, I think if Rip takes to the track, he's more likely to win that race than any other horse I can think of in another race besides Ventura. Zenyatta is my choice to win though.

How you think Zenyatta is a more likely winner than Ventura I will never know.

Not at all. More likely than any of the Zenyattas up there.

I don't really see Conduit being beaten by anyone but Presious Passion.

Precious Passion is the TYPE of horse to single in multirace sequences, and I will. The 4/5 shots that will bring back $97.50 pick 3's because they are on every ticket are the ones to avoid. If they beat me, keep the change, I'll grab that cheap pick 3 at Ozone Park some random Thursday in December!

With Precious Passion you'll be getting a clean trip from an oxymoron of a horse. That is, a multi-dimensional, one dimension horse. You'll clearly be on the lead with the 3rd or 4th betting choice. A wire-wire job obviously a possibility, but as we have seen, that other dimension, the coming back when passed dimension. If someone goes on by and hangs he'll fight back and regain control.

Add to this what will certainly be a confusing pace scenario for the Euros, and this could be the KEY HORSE in multirace wagers, as it doesn't really matter the win odds, but more the # of choice within the race (3rd or 4th).

With the other races around this one being extremely contentious, going wide in them almost seems a certainty.

I will be leaning heavily on Precious Passion in Pick 3's and 4's.

Good Luck!

It's when you use a single that's not the shorter prices or most popular single amongst the crowd. If it wins, you separate yourself from the crowd in that those who hit your horse on their tickets likely spread, while you did not.
