So...does this mean we'll be hearing from Dougie on Friday?

It should. Unless there's some wacky deal on at Subway. Or the Chinese Buffet.

There is nothing pretty about half the field loaded in a $250k race and you are 13-1, and then 6-1 at the finish...

Ravalo in PID Mile, finished fourth.

Saw something similar in the 2nd there tonight also. The winner was 9/2 going into the gate and then 2-1 coming out.

Tough to try and get new bettors to the game with that kind of crap. Imagine betting a football game. You bet right before it starts and your bookie gives you a line. Then 2 minutes after the game starts your bookie calls you and tells you to cut the line he gave you in half. How quick would you find another bookie?

Football games arent mutual pools. I have and do bet sports daily. I can bet over 210 and under 214 on a NBA total sometimes without taking a lead position. Finding riskless middles is common

There are very few who earn at racing..Sports is a much better way to earn. Poker is even better. Racing is just a million times more fun.. Once BTW went public the air came out of the betting on horses bag.. Now tom dick and harry get all the juice and frankly I couldnt be happier for BTW or racing
