Of the three ML longshots, the winner, #2-- rated best. Problem was the value-- or lack of it. Last time we looked, all of them were offered somewhere in the Teens... maybe one of them was as high as 21.
25 would've caught our attention-- @ that level it's easy to drift up to cap level. Lower than 25 is often a different story-- low 20's can just as readily drift down to teens.
So, we took a different route: we made a place bet on #5(who just looked so strong on paper)-- its place price would've approximated or beat win mutuel if #1 finished out of the top two.
The intent was to gradually recover $200 from earlier failed bet cancellations.
Ehhh, we will all die someday anyhow.
Sometimes not being able to be around @ posttime(having an actual life) can work very well for betting ML longshots. We woulda had this one and one previous one who got pounded to 7-1, causing us to cancel the wager.
