There is no logic for putting Tiago at 20-1 and Colonel John at 33-1. Tiago doesn't want to run anymore.

Tiago is essentially retired

They must have some earlier liability into Tiago or something.

I realize his trainer is incredible at pointing horses to fire their best on the biggest day .. but Tiago really should be 200/1.

4/5 on a horse that isn't coming? Does he know something that we don't?

Also 1/1 on Zensational is absolutely ridiculous.

"BC Classic: 4-5 Sea The Stars, 9-4 Rip Van Winkle, 5-1 Zenyatta, 7-1 Summer Bird,10-1 Mastercraftsman, 14-1 Gio Ponti, Gitano Hernando, Quality Road, Richards Kid,16-1 Rail Trip, 20-1 Bullsbay, Einstein, Mine That Bird, Tiago, 25-1 Macho Again, 33-1 Colonel John "

World Sports Exchange (wsex.com) has Sea The Stars at 3-1 and Rip Van Winkle at 5-2. The rest are worse than the William Hill odds. WSEX's future odds are seldom competitive with TheGreek, Pinnacle or 5Dimes.

a noted local clocker picked Tiago to win his last start based on what he's been seeing int the AM. Maybe he just need a race???????????

Already bet Colonel John at 22.5 to 1 yesterday. He'll be half that or better in the gate.
