You can keep Optimizer at 30-1. The only thing interesting about Liason is his trainer.

I don't, I think there's a strong chance that the race collapses. Obviously that would favor Optimizer. I don't think he's good enough to get there, but I think he could get a call in the stretch. As far as Liason goes, he has run better with the shades, but it just feels like he's going to end up being fowardly placed and very wide going in first turn. The post really hurts him.

This is mostly on-track money (if not completely), right? Either way, based on just reading chatter on the web and seeing these odds, Take Charge Indy is going pretty low odds-wise in the betting. Borel obviously a part of that.
