EVD Jan 26 Race 10
 

I checked Santa Anita and didn't see anything there worth risking my money on but this race at Evangeline looks like it has some possibilities. I'm not thrilled about all of the pacelines but it's what I have to work with. I am going to take another looik at them. I don't like projected pacelines. I was able to double check the 3 and it looked alright. Here's the pacelines I used.

Interesting. We see this race differently.

Here's my take on it.

#3 seems to be the sole front runner in a more or less paceless race. He should have plenty left in the tank to finish the job too. At 3-1 he's probably an overlay. I'd think his fair odds are somewhere in the range of 2-1 or even less. I'd call him a legitimate favorite and I don't like to bet against legitimate favorites.

If we hold our breath and close our eyes (and assume #3 doesn't feel like running today for some reason), the value win bets will probably be on #9 at 10-1 and #4 at 12-1.

I might toss a couple of bucks on those as a flier, but unless #3 is scratched I'll be treading very cautiously. This is not a great betting race.

PS- I think #7 is also legitimate. And at 5/2 that means you have to beat two "real" horses to make money.

Oh, and there's nothing wrong with the #6 horse either. I don't think you'll get 6-1 on him though.

Nice going, Chip. You had the winner right up there.

#3 was the co-favorite with #7 at five minutes to post. #3 went from 2-1 to 8/5 when the race started.

#6 was scratched.

I wound up making small win bets on #4 at 35-1 and #9 at 12-1. At those odds how can you say "No?" :>)

Check out the superfecta payoff. It was an "ALL-ALL."

Not to redboard, but those of you that have the card, check out the eleventh and final race. Tell me you wouldn't have hit it. That race alone makes the whole night!

Nice win Chip
I was out of this race Every once in awhile I do a race like this one
were when I start to hide to my top 5 conenders
and I have many horses with either a top 5 TE or Primary Lines
Score This was the case this race I eneded up with 7 contenders
even after I saw the 6 was a scratch I just had trouble getting to my top 5 when I did I came up with on my BLBL this

David way to go in race 11 trouble is with Val 3 you can't do 4.5 races

I've been slow all month long. Almost no jobs comng in. Three proposals out, no answers yet. Wouldn't you just know it, today it hits the fan. Picked up five new work orders. It's 4:22 AM and I am just finishing one client.
I didn't even have enough time to take a second look here.
Not that I am sorry it finally got busy for me but it could have picked a better day. Now I'm booked up until Tuesday and still have the additiional three bids out.
What is that ALL/ALL?
It was posted that way yesterday for the Super in the sixth race. Does that mean they sold no tickets and will pay any third and fourth horse?
I have to get some rest. See you guys tomorrow.
