Playing some at my local track: Pinnacle is a very chaulky track, but the feature, Race 8: The Michigan Breeder's Cup Handicap has some decent prices so I'm playing a double.
Pinnacle 7:
Double: 3 / 1-2-3-4-7
Race 7: 3 - Buscando Fortuna: trained by Gorham who clicking on at a meager 26%. Also high percentage jock in Delgado. With a step down in class and no respect with the weight. He runs away with this race
Race 8: As I said is wide open, but I'm looking to beat the favorite here Meadow Vespers who already has a stakes win at Pnl this summer. I can't see the 6 or 7 firing so I'll leave them out.
9-Brass Hat WPS
Going with the 9- Brass hat with Borel in the saddle. Seems to like this distance with a good ROI in Graded Stakes and should go off at pretty nice price

A beautiful day for racing in the windy city...Here are the contenders:
1- Einstein is coming into this Millions just as he did last year, off solid performances against competitive company, but I think he gets the same result…Out of the money
2- Presious Passion has a mission: to get to the lead and stay there. The no question front-runner and hasn’t finished worse than 2nd this year. Couldn’t ask for a better post position either.
3- Just as well is looking to go 2 for 2 this summer at AP. Coming out of the handicap in mid-July. He could be there with another late move
4 – Stotsfold is from the other side of the pond, which makes him dangerous since the Euros owned last years race. The post position should bode well for his late runn... [More]

Race 4: #6- Diggers Rest is a live long-shot at 20-1 early line. - Being ridden by Ouzts Probably just a Place / Show wager, but the Win wwould pay nicely
Race 6: BEST BET for the day: #4-Star Crest to WPS. adding an Exacta: 4 with All and All with 4
Race 8: #1- Eagle Won will probably be a co-favorite with the 4, but has a better shot from the inside. WP
Race 10: #3- Star Commander ran last summer up here at Pinnacle. I saw him run and he's rock solid. Will probably be the betting favorite, but should get a clean run. WPS and an Exacta: 4 with All and All with 4

1) Hyperbaric (KY ) - Not a good showing in the Dubai Duty Free, but if you throw that one out he wired the Citation Handicap at Hollywood back in Nov. and won the previous 3 before that. Looks to bounce back after returning to the states
2) Whatsthescript (IRE) - After a good showing in the BC Mile last year he didn’t live up to expectation as the favorite in the Citation Handicap and finished out of the money. I like the fact that he is a beaten favorite and could improve, but Go Go didn’t think so as he is riding current morning line favorite 4-Ventura. Also hasn’t raced in 6 months. He has fallen a long was from this high Bayers from last summer
3) Storm Military (ARG) - This horse tangled with the 7-US Ranger earlier this year and won that match-up at the longer price. May have won the race if it had been run at today’s distance. Taking a step-up in class and downing 124 lbs. for the first time in his career. Would be useful on the bottom of exotic wagers.
4) Ventura (KY ) - Always a lady…Going up against the guys today hoping to not be disappointed as has happened the last two outings being “oh, so close”. The guys are spotting... [More]

Anybody have numbers on the outcome of games after a team pulls the goalie to add an extra attacker in the last minutes of regulation.
3 outcomes:
Score unchanged: Probably the outcome of most of these games?
Winning team scores: Odds?
Losing team scores: Odds?
Any body have a website or solid stats for this type of situation?
