5 star lock....of the week

[RHT2004]

The 5 hasn't really done much running and he feels like the one who will be overbet to me. Botero who beat him last time was going 1st time Mott from Baffert. He ran OK that day, but then bombed stretching out. Not much horse IMO.

6-1 7-1 at best

It's a six horse field with one horse with no chance. He cannot possibly be that high.

No freaking shot. If he's 6-1, he probably cant win. At worst Andy is right and its somewhere in the middle. But he is much more likely to be bet 5-2 then 6-1.

Ill go a step further if he's 6-1 at any point in the betting he's no longer a lock. This is the type that shows in the double, opens at 8-5, nd eventually goes off around 5-2.

Ill throw out another horse im interested im on Thursday.
Aqu 8th.
Storm Prophet. Obviously would need a fair track, but he feels very dangerous at a decent price. I love the way Maragh is riding....

He's live but that's a very hard race. Probably the most interesting race we have run in a while ( no need for the obvious easy jokes ).

I agree about the 6:1 and having no shot. He's not winning at over 9:2 and is unlikely to even be that high.
