Sportz,

For a 10yr. old. Bomber is some horse !

Californian Dane's average earnings:$18,130. 2 maidens, a 1MW [$23k] and 2 open HCP's [$50k]. Won by lengths but so would half the field running tonight if they were in the Dane's past races so far. Record times are often set in these type of races were the front runner is under absolutely no pressure. Meaningless.

Spark of Life's average is $42.079. Distance: 6/4.0.2 Track 3/2.0.1 all class races. Lets get some persecutive here and here is some totally 'silly' perspective: IAS openers for the Dane are under $2 and for Sparky over $5.
Hype, long live hype as an odds setter [oh, I do love a false favorite]. Would you take odds-on for the Dane Sportz? A 1 x4 win and place bet on Sparky sounds a lot more sensible to me.

Guess where my money is going?
