He's 15-1 on the M/L. I'd settle for half that.

i was thinking the same thing. 15-1ML and they have Quality Road @ 8-1ML, im confussed. This Ones for Phil being 3-1 is pretty commical to me as well. IMO Taqarub is gonna have a pretty big chink of change bet on him, the sheiks are always well represented at the windows for big races like this

The FOY a great betting opportunity for Theregoesjojo, he's going to be a great price today and with the added furlong he looks too tempting to pass up. I'm quite bullish on him today.

Not quite, he still wants a specific gate attendent out there for the horse. Well not really but isn't that next?

Thanks Bigs

I wonder where he'll show up next. I thought for sure that he'd outrun his odds in teh HB and certainly did so IMO.

I am curious as to if there is a post bias from the #12 post at 1 mile at Gulfstream. I know at 1 1/8 it makes a big difference, but how do you think it will affect THIS ONE'S FOR PHIL???

[robfla]

I think the outside post is the better place to be. There are only horses inside of him and therefore there is no chance of getting squeezed. That's a perfect stalk and pounce spot. On the other hand, I am very reluctant in betting the 1 post in an elongated sprint ( 7f - 1m at GP )because a horse can duck into the gap between the gate and the main track. Also, an inside horse's hand is forced in having to gun it if he is a speed horse on the rail.
