First time in 50 years!
« on: August 04, 2023, 11:49:50 PM »
I have been around and in Harness racing for nearly 50 years and I have never ever until today saw a morning line that a horse is listed as the 1/9 favorite!

Sylvia Hanover tomorrow!

The track handicapper should be trying to make actual morning line odds that match as close as possible to when the actual races goes off.  Not many if any handicappers will go that low regardless of the race and who is in it!

Songbird and Zenyatta were each 1-9 in the morning line. Verified.

I believe Harve De Grace was something along those lines also.
