Title: Give me a BREAK!!!!
Post by: MO on June 20, 2008, 04:25:13 PM
I bet Concordes Pastry at 7-1 with 1 minute to post- longest shot in the race!!!! As the horses broke from the gate he was 9-2 and on the turn 7-2. Give me a freaking break!! TVG talking heads were shking their heads in astonishment as well.

\"Longest shot\"...in a 6-horse field.

A second choice on the ML that got bought back late, in a smallish win pool, at the beginning of the racing day when almost nothing else was running...

I get a little tweaked when I see a suspicious odds drop, but this wasn\'t suspicious at all...if you can calmly assess the situation, that is.
