I could care less for the owners and trainer. The first person I thought of was Jimbo.

Jim, can\'t help but feel for you.

What an accouning nightmare.  I had the horse in about 60 super combos.

Jimbo,

I am so so sorry.  You did a great job capping far in advance with nothing to show.  

Good luck today getting whole.

Thanks guys.

I guess that is why they call futures wagers risky.  But having the first two favorites at overlaid odds, including a large piece at 55-1, and having them both scratch, one of the morning of, is a tough one take. Ouch.

Forgot about your bet Jim. From a wagering standpoint, I didn\'t want to have to bet on IWR or against him, but I\'ve lost my share of futures bets like that, and it ain\'t fun.

Still, a good early call.
