I think you would be better off betting a $1 trifecta twice instead of one $2 bet, just in case the tri were to be less than $1,200 and more than $600. Know what I mean?

on a side note I am tossing Colonel John
so you have a shot at cashing a ticket.

Ae - the heaviest $2 in racing

Default $2 tri

I'm from up north we don't have to pay tax on tickets over $600.00. I thought they were doing away with that tax down there too.

in the state of llinois it doesn't matter if you spent $600 to win $500
they want their cut of the $500
they are like the mob.

I'd be shocked (and ecstatic) if Denis of Cork goes off at 25-1. . . But I think he's going to take a ton of $. . .

I'd love 25-1 on D of C too, What are his odds in pool 3?

26-1 but I don't think that's indicative of what he'll be. . .

I slept zero hours last night because I'm pretty certain I have food poisoning. I am beat to hell and would normally not even consider going anywhere today, but I'm sure as heck not letting some unfortunate vittles keep me from Louisville on the first Saturday in May. To top it all off, Kiaran McLaughlin is on my plane.
