A horse wins a grade 1 million dollar race by a pole against some pretty solid horses and you think 105 makes sense?

See above...I'm not saying 105 is correct, but what does it matter. Would 110 make you happier? The purse is the same. Time only matters in jail.

Yeah, that is why the vast majority of odds lines these days can be set by the Beyer figures, because nobody pays attention to figures.

Which is why the public lemmings jumped off the cliff with Verrazano off that fig in the Haskell....I liked Moreno as I posted. Pace makes the race. Always.

Actually, he went off a lot higher than I thought he would.

I thought he would be about 7/5 or so, I do think public education on speed figures has increased the past decade or so, that the power the Beyer figures has is not as absolute as it used to be, still powerful though.
