Thank you, Albert Burneko. Thank you for saying the words we could not say. Thank you.
Prestige TV, what’s that again?
Pick race of the day comes in Chas. Town 11, in which not many potential outcomes can be ruled out. However, for the purposes of value-oriented decision-making, we will be bypassing the top two chances on the morning line, actually. If something good happens, you’ll be the first to read about it! On the one hoof, excellence; on the other, serious injury. Life is like that. We accept this sinful world as it is. Amen.
Another good one for your evening is Indiana 5. As in the W.Va. race, we have a curious morning-line fave. Granted, the track oddsmaker was not very definitive in his (her? or its, in the case of a robot? Watson, Siri, what say you?) call, but perhaps the public will get bamboozled here. The overlay always is created somewhere.
As it was in Fort Erie 6 today. Sorry, this one has already gone, but surely you had it. Surely! In this one, the morning-line fave, 8-5 there, was Viciousgrasshopper, Dual Qualifier, and a Dual Qualifier atop both the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis and the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis. Despite all these credentials, the mopes playing Fort Erie dismissed him at 10-1 — 10-1! Even crazier, the 2-5 (2-5!) real-life fave was 10-1 morning-line longshot A Bit of Who Do. Two-to-five! How is this possible?
’grasshopper got his victory at $22.60 to win; ’Do held on for third, $2.10 to show. The overlay always is created somewhere.
Happy hunting this evening, horseplayers of ’murrika!
P.S. There are too many shows!
