I don't buy for one minute that that winning this race means nothing to them. Does his record indicate that they approach races in a haphazard way or not to win?

Runs second tomorrow? ha. I can't understand why people are figuring that this horse will finish anywhere but first.

His post makes sense. He's looking to hit a grand slam. If a longshot wins and it's on his ticket he'll be position to hit BIG. Worth a $20 gamble.

I think the favorite in the 8th is going to win which will lower the payouts on a Strong Contender win.

People are going to over play that favorite in the 8th, for good reason. EVEN if both favorites win (Biz/Royale) I am still alive to a better ticket then a $20 win wager in my opinion. I am gambling on the fact that 85 to 90% of the tickets have Invasor, and then people will get sucked into Chaitan and Magna
