Xpressbet also has it under special BC bets

Any idea where this is on twinspires? I don't think you can start wagering on the Breeder's Cup races until around 11:00 EST anyway. I'm psyched, this will be my first foray into internet wagering - no more handfuls of slips in my greasy palms.

Twinspires now has it. Use BC Dbl/jockey H2H

About $30,000 in the pool so far with "Others" rating 2-1 favoritism....

It's race 1 on BC/Jockey H2H

The field at the 8-1ML would be an absolute STEAL and I was planning on betting it hard. For example, the ML favorite Garrett Gomez has Gayego in the Sprint at 5/2 ML (who has a big shot obviously.) However, the field has Zensational, Fatal Bullet, and Cost of Freedom. I would take 1/2 on that proposition and I'm getting 8-1!!!!

Winner... at $5.60. Handle was much, much higher than I guessed, at $117k.

Sniper and I discussed this after the Cup and we thought that it would be a lot more intriguing if they had the field as individuals, i.e. if Joe Talamo is part of the field and he wins 2 races and Pelsier is also part of the field and wins 1, the field score is 2- so the maximum number of wins for all the jockeys in the field. Therefore the individual wagering interests have a much better chance of actually winning (under this scenario Julien Leparoux would have been the winner this year.)

Thanks Philly. This was a great bet!
