Classic play: The speed & closer of the race 1-2, had a $40 cold 5-6 exacta with a $10 6-5 reverse just in case. $272 payoff for a $50 dollar bill investment was like stealing money, in effect I got $13.60 to place on Frosted.

I wish they were all this easy.

a couple bucks down the drain is no biggie. Congrats to you on the nice exacta score, though.

The bottom half of that pedigree is cheap speed after cheap speed. AP is a throwback to one of those stamina horses several generations back.
