This is where I'm going to have problems in this comp and I don't really expect to do all that well. I NEVER back just one horse per race. Always 2 and sometimes 3 and even 4. Whatever it takes to finish in front. I too had that Orange Cup winner today (amazed at the price), but I only had it rated 2nd. I didn't go in the Daily Challenge today, but if I had, I would have picked Juerga instead which finished 2nd. On Saturday, so many of my 2nd selections won it wasn't funny. Proved frustrating in the comp, but I still managed to do okay with real money because I was betting 2 or 3 runners per race.
