Justify probably more relaxed than people posting here.

That said, at 3 or 4/5, a bet against and let me see history and not feel so bad if I lose to an undefeated TC winner.

PS. Was at the '77 Belmont and bet $300 on Seattle Slew. That meant about what $1000 or even $2000 means to me today - a lot! Saw him all lathered up coming to the post (paid $1.50 for my seat right before the finish line) and FLEW back to the windows to sell my tickets (6 $50 tickets as there were windows for different value wagers!) There were no longer ANY lines - no one near - as everyone wanted to see the start and was near/at their seats.

Sometimes better to be lucky than good! Doubt I'll be betting even $300 on the Belmont this Saturday - there probably will be better opportunities - and everyone should relax and enjoy the whole day and especially the big race.

Anticipation is not relaxing!
