The big money is made when the favorite runs out. Spend a little more with the mind set that you may take a loss on a winning ticket. If things break your way you may hit a windfall. A single of RA in the win spot on a Tri would be a huge waste.

Just checked my TV listing to make sure I have BRAVO!

thank goodness... channel #57... Oaks is going BIGTIME!

I disagree. If you can beat the 2nd choice in the place and show spots you can make money with the trifecta. Should you bet RA - ALL - ALL? No, but if you use her with the right combination of price horses you can do well.

NT

Yeah, as long as you're not wheeling a million combinations it can be profitable.

The way everyone is talking, she may be 1-5 when the load the gate.

1:2 tops

she should be 1 - 1,000,000

shes so much better than everyone else, including the males (imo)

now I'll knock on wood

Interesting that Leparoux is on Justwhistledixie. From what I understood that was only his mount in the Bonnie Miss because Garcia was in Dubai.

NT

Dude, if she's 1-2 I'm emptying my wallet.

If you believe anyone can beat Justwhistledixie or Flying Spur for 2nd or 3rd, I agree that money can be made here.

I said TOPS... you never know how all the people who only bet on big days are going to bet.

1:2 is a possibility, 2:5 is more likely.

I'm going to play a small Oaks/ Derby Double.

I know you are kidding, but I can't "empty my wallet" in even a one horse race at 1:2 or less.
