Mikemca seems sharp and he likes Daddy Nose Best. Likely to be a fast pace, with 1 1/4 to run- I would take a closer and stay away from the early speed. GL

Nope, it has to be all at once.

Daddy Nose Best is about 11/1 current odds. You will not win as much, but of course with show you have more of a chance to get a return. Someone just posted a historical breakdown and is Taking Daddy Nose Best and Take Charge Indy. Your call if you want to go for the big hit or not. GL.

Does seem that way, but have wonder if running 10 furlongs will make a difference.

I really like El Padrino, think the distance will be perfect for him and has run well on an off track.

front runners are horses that prefer to race from the lead, they want to jump out early and set or be on the pace.

I put the $100 on Daddy Nose Best to Place. It's crazy that they can't even tell me how much that would pay lol.

You won't know until the race starts. It's not like sports betting when you place a bet and you are locked on that number(ex. OKC -2 -110). In horse betting you get the odds at the time the race goes off regardless of what the odds were when you placed the bet, just because you bet the horse at 12-1 odds it doesn't mean you get those odds, it could rise or fall depending on all the bets placed for the race.
