Misleading morning line at Del Mar in match race.

So, they got this match race coming up in a little bit and i see that the 1 horse is 3-5 ML and the 2 horse is even money ML but currently on the toteboard, both horses are 3-5.

What am i missing?

i don't california, but even with the blinkers going on JOKER FACE he should be pretty far back and the other horse should be able to cross over in front of him and make the rail

Joker Face added first time fronts last time.

Chantal is supposed to get right alongside the 1 horse and not clear on purpose and keep him in the 1 path the entire way and force him to wire the field under pressure.

announcers said chantal indicated that smith taught her all about match racing. reminds me of the old line-----i taught you everything YOU know---not everything I know. writing pre race.

I should be so lucky had I skipped the last @ SAR.

Smith on top of Sutherland.

I doubt either of them know much about match race riding on polytrack.

Once Mike got that lead and pushed Chantal out in the first turn, it was over.

Was there a special takeout rate for this rate? Based on the pool sizes and payoff, the effective takeout rate was 11.8%

that had to be the most boring match race ive ever seen. Black Ruby and Taz had more excitement and appeal than that/
