Travers
Some Travers questions for anyone who will indulge?
1. Do you know what time is post? 2. I am also looking for the race number of Desert Key because I plan to bet that race too. Also what time is that post and his odds? 3. I think there could be some money to be won on Tale of Akati today. I plan to bet him across the board. Anyone else agree (20-1 in a wide open field)? 4. I am also going to put a little down on Col John to Win. 5. My big struggle today is I like both Desert Key and Tale of Akati. I think they are both in post position 1. I'm not sure if that is a bad thing? After watching Big Brown in that post at The Belmont, I have some concerns. Any advice? 6. Do you think both Zito horses, DaTara and Cool Coal Man will sprint to the lead early? 7. I know the race is on ESPN. Do you know who the track announcer will be? Thanks all.

Post is 5:45 EDT.
I wouldn't tout off of too many horses in that field. Exotics should pay well, if one is so inclined.

Da'Tara will go to the lead, but Cool Coal Man is a dead closer. He'll be back in the back early. I actually like CCM in here today and I think he's the price horse instead of Tale of Ekati. Desert Key's the #2 in the 10th (5:10 post)... post 1, but program #2 Col John's a good horse, but is a synthetic specialist.... don't care for him on dirt.

I just double checked and it said Desert Key is in post #1? If I remember the Derby correctly, I thought CCM broke early to the lead?

Quick Pick 4 wagering question. This one I know is simple to most everyday players, but I've just never been a Pick 4 or Pick 6 guy.
Today's late Pick 4 at Saratoga looks to be an exception. If I have a single in the first race, two horses in the second leg, five horses in the third leg, and 7 horses in the final leg.... .....is that a $70 wager?

Thanks, jwkniska. I usually can go research those questions, but that answer wasn't easily coming up in my google searches.

The post won't really be a factor for Tale of Ekati. . . may be a bit of a detriment to Desert Key if he's one of the ones you like.

after watching a few races I really don't see the rail having any advantage. I was hoping that Tale of Ekati would have a post position advantage...
I thought he was very well placed in the Ky Derby and had no excuses (for place or show money) I think he should have finished better than 4th with that ride. Don't believe that Edgar is the answer because Coa was not a problem. I will be betting ToE, just not as heavy. also hope Court Vision finishes ahead of Pyro. Don't like Pyro. Does anyone like Golden Spikes or Visionaire in the King Bishop?

I don't know why. I think ToE has a huge race still left in him. While he's got some odds, I am going to grab it.
