Miff,
I am not shooting for bombs. I posted here 1 week ago that the best bet of the day was Ghostzapper. I made my largest bet a week before the race at 5-1 in the futures on Ghostzapper. So, I "got out" for the other losers.
My point was that betting $19 Doubles in Breeders Cup races is 1) In general, a bet I can't make because of unpredictability in these races, making "value" an absolute requirement and 2) If you did bet it, don't point it out as a "Thorograph winner" since anybody who bought the program had a good chance to have it.
Sorry if that sounds harsh, but they were two $6 horses and Sweet Catomine was being touted by every pro handicapper on all the websites and horse shows all week. And she was 3rd fastest on the T-graph figures and figured to lose ground from the 10 hole. Not a "thorograph play", as I am pretty sure that Jerry would agree.
