00:00You and I are both looking at race eight on Saturday at Saratoga.

00:03Kind of similarly, we both think you can get a little bit of value

00:07with the outside horse, right?

00:08So you're going to put a win wager on Corruption

00:10as one of your bets in there.

00:12I still hoping for this 5-1, 6-1, you know, on this horse.

00:17I think it's legit.

00:19I think you can play the horse to win

00:21and maybe use some sactas with the numbers 2, 4, 7.

00:26There is value.

00:26You see that number two is 8-1.

00:30Number four is 15-1.

00:32And obviously, you have to include Farbridge.

00:34I still think if you, the eight win and Farbridge finish second,

00:40you still make money.

00:41Absolutely. Absolutely.

00:42So Roberto and I look at this race really similarly.

00:45We both are going to have win bets on Corruption,

00:48and we're both going to play wagers with Corruption on top.

00:52I'm just going to use Farbridge as well in the trifecta on the top spot.

00:55That's kind of like my saver for my win wager.

00:59So if Farbridge wins and it were to come like Farbridge with the eight,

01:04who we both like Corruption, and then with maybe the two, El Razim,

01:07who Roberto mentions, or the horse like the six, who is also a fair price.

01:12That's Harrow.

01:13Either one of them wouldn't shock.

01:15I even threw the big price of starting over in,

01:17because if it does come 7-8 or 8-7,

01:19I want to have some of those bigger prices and a chance for value in the third spot.

01:23So a win wager for both me and Roberto.

01:26Roberto's going to play an exacta.

01:28I'll try a trifecta there.

01:30So just different wagers and different ways we're going to try to take advantage of the horses we like in race number eight.

01:36Let's move to the 11th race, Roberto.

01:38This one's the Diana.

01:39Smaller fields sometimes be a little trickier with how you want to wager on them.

01:43But when we were talking the race out,

01:45it just feels like it's going to be a good opportunity for Excellent Truth to get a better, smoother trip under Pratt.

01:52And because he didn't win, she didn't win her last few races,

01:55she's probably going to give you more value than the horses who did win most recently.

02:00Statistic, support this feeling.

02:03History, you go to Shaft Brown, support this feeling.

02:07And I think she has the class to, you know, upset.

02:10She feels pretty.

02:11She's going to be my bet to win.

02:14Obviously, I'm going to try to, you know, to make some money on the exactas.

02:18Maybe four on top.

02:20And also you can reverse that one, five, six with the four for the second place.

02:25In case she decides to finish second again on this opportunity.

02:29And why Roberto's doing that is because he wants to make sure to capitalize on the strong opinion.

02:34So if the four is running first or second and any of the other horses that he likes wins,

02:38he's at least going to get something out of it with that exacta there,

02:41with a she feels pretty dynamic pricing and be your best on the win end there.

02:46So if any one of those wins and excellent truth ran second, Roberto would also hit that exacta.

02:51So he has a win wager, a couple different exactas for you there with Roberto's bets on race number 11.

02:57How am I going to play race number 11?

02:59I wanted to make sure that if for some reason she feels pretty gets beat, I have at least a horse there.

03:05And you did the same thing, Roberto.

03:07While we both respect she feels pretty quite a bit, we just want to make sure that, you know what,

03:11if excellent truth fires a really good shot, Roberto will have a chance for a nice score.

03:16If be your best gets loose out front.

03:18And if nobody's able to push that lone speed horse out front, I'm going to have an opportunity there.

03:23It'd be your best wins because I'll use she feels pretty underneath.

03:27I'll use the horse that Roberto likes as well.

03:29Excellent truth in the second spot.

03:30Then in the third spot, we use the five dynamic pricing.

03:34So pretty logical in that small field.

03:37But the key for me is, can we get the six in there somewhere in the mix?

03:41Can we get that speed horse to hold on somewhere and provide us with a little bit of value?
