4-1 on Premium Tap is zero value IMO.

Generally I would too, but Fernando knows this horse and never panics when he's aboard. Overall, of course Frankie is a better jock, but I think that given the horses they are riding and Jara's knowledge of Invasor -- I'd call it a wash today.

Race is a stay away betting wise, no value. Like DC over Invasor, should be a good one.

If Premium Tap had ANYONE else riding him he would get my money, but with Ken in a big race, you could have every other horse break down and he still would come in fourth...

I agree. If Invasor runs his race, I don't think Tap can win. But if Invasor runs porly, I think Tap can beat Discreet Cat. I played two modest Exactas:

Invasor/Prem Tap ($14 for $2)
Prem Tap/Discreet Cat ($33 for $2)

10 mtp.

I like a small bet on Bullish Luck. If he can handle the dirt, he can compete. At 40-1, I'll take a shot.

As I said in the DC vs. Inv. thread, DC is an equine god if he can win this off the layoff at this distance against the American HOY with a prep and running at his preferred distance. So, if DC wins, I will bow my head in front of the new shrine I will build for him. I'm lazy and don't want to build it, so go Invasor for many reasons.
