Good question Believer. I was the betting beneficiary of at least four of those eleven winners this past week and if memory serves me correctly, most were 5-1 or longer odds.

I think you ar ejust seeing the odds even out-- and the presnece of Brett Miller. When GGG left, everybody stopped firing out from the otuside-his patented move--Brett will make the same move, when live. I think we have had at least one or two of those horses (In The Mist)H-capped out there. Superior animals can overcoem that draw
BTW- how come nopbody posts about ME giving otu a $26 horse on the tube?

Keith, thanks for giving us Bigaffairintown. I put a $5 spot on her, but I wish you had given us Rascality instead. I've been betting the Rascal for weeks hoping she would wake up and as soon as I get off her, she bombs at 35-1. Time to look for another sleeper.
