We circled all longshots: 1,2,6,8,9. We liked them in this sort of order:
6/8/1
2/9
BUT, we planned to eventually single whichever one hit cap odds at posttime.
Last night we pre-played 6 in main entry... and 1 in fun entry.
But with 5 min. to post, nobody-- none of them had any value:
they were all in the teens-- w/ 6 highest @ either 19 or 21, 8 next highest in mid-high teens.
So, we refunded both for:
win dutch: 6 & 8 on main entry
8 alone in fun entry.
Coupla minutes later, 8 drifts down from mid-high teens to low teens, 6 up to 24/25...others still in teens.
So, we dissolved dutch & just singled 6 on main entry(hoping it would drift up further / was now almost double the price as 8), fun entry remained untouched.
When horses load is when 9 drifts past 20 into 24/25.
Not that we liked 9 all that much, but it's annoying to lose to a price that drifted up so much.
Why couldn't it drift up earlier instead of 6, so we could either dutch it or key it.
This is on the heels of similar yesterday-- we don't play horse in the teens(3,4 horses in similar odds range)-- then after loading in gate doubles in price to become only real longshot-- and wins.
What luck.
