Mike-- As I now see after doing a thread search for IIX, you have regularly mentioned it. I just did not pick up on it--or maybe I did and like you thought the premiums much too high on the puts and forgot about it again. But it seems like a pretty good short to me--not quite ythe upside risk of a single nut, but maybe a good bet that most of them will, over the next couple of years, lose a lot of value.

Mike, I'm sorry to say that I didn't see any of the big races this weekend. I have a lot of catching up to do. I was overdue for some quality time with my significant other. She doesn't understand that for me hitting exactas IS quality time. <g> Wayne

Mike, >>It looks like the Triple Crown races have taken Cat Thief down a notch.<< I saw replays of the big races yesterday. Cat Thief was a bit of a disappointment. I thought he or Affirmed Success would hang around for a minor share even though the pace was lively. Behrens looked good. Do you know what the story is with Event of the Year? I have a feeling that some of the earlier high quality races may have been better. I think EOTY can take him. Wayne
