There's the odd analysis and then theirs the horse race and wagering angle. I just don't see Artie the lock everyone else is and think there's some real compitition in this race from a few horses.

As someone else said, if I'm betting $25 or whatever I'm not looking to make $25, I'm looking for more value in a race where I can get better odds and more return. I'd look to put that money into exactas or pcik threes. I rather hit less races and make more money. Granted Artie will be 1st or 2nd most likely but too many times low prices favorites disappointed, especially at Saratoga in big races.

So I would invest the $25 this way:

$4 for beer
$3 for hotdog
$18 in pick threes

That way you know you get some return if you loose the races and have a chance at hitting for much more money!
