$212000 of the 301000 in the show pool was bet on Comma to the Top.
Never seen that before on a non-favorite. 3-1 co-third choice.

I had a win bet on Jimmy Creed and I am hitting myself that his show payoff paid the same as his win odds.

I say this without a bet on the race- what the heck was Maldanado doing on Comma to the Top? He had a clear lead. Why try to hold him up?

Also, Leparoux is on fire right now

Goldencents could easily be a BC sprint winner. Tons of class and tons of speed and loves Santa Anita.

.....i think that terrible racing surface is tricky. i am close to closing up shop on that place, its a F.J.
