Joe,

Hey, thanks for commenting. I think it boils down to one's definition of a "SCORE." It's a subjective term. My point is simple - having all the money bet on the favorite returned as profit to the winning ticket holders boosts payoffs.

I agree with you. Tossing Fierceness is not required for a big winner. even with Fierceness on top of a vertical winner, it will probably make for a winning day.

In summary, I was just having a thought when I posted. One that reasoned Fierceness is not a lock to repeat his last race as Fairmount pointed out! So the potential for a very large payoff no?


Oh whose/which version of Hey Joe is/was best?
