Brodie Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) Socrates is having its first start tonight at Addington in Race 5! First start, standing start and drawn 1! Bookies open at $2.30 and now shortened into $1.80 meaning there has been some money on at $2.30 and less! It can win no doubt and the money on says that it probably will, but drawing the inside from a stand and first up is a helluva risk at those prohibitive odds, I would think? It won its last trial very nicely leading up with the race winners off 20m over 2600 metres, but you wouldnt say that it was anything outstanding prior to that, to be so short! Wish those that took it at those odds all the best as you may need it, if missing away slightly!! Edited July 15, 2021 by Brodie Quote
