If the right horse draws out there they'll still bet it.

The year Lure was 9th beaten 9.5 lengths at 4/5 in the Mile from post 14. Paradise Creek was 3rd beaten 3 lengths to Tiekkenan from post 13 at 4/5 odds in the Turf.

They made Gorella 3/1 from post 13 in the Mile the last time the BC was at CD and she got thumped.

I find it very hard to believe post is much of a factor at 1 1/2 miles. The Mile, absolutely, but not the Turf. The sample size has to be extremely small. Lumping distances isn't a good idea.
