I'm curious what kind of odds she got. And which racebook. Sometimes the Vegas racebooks outdo the offshores.

Typically they are giving 7/1, 8/1 on the Lava Man to win the Classic. I couldnt imagine it being any higher or any lower than that.

I will not know till tomorrow. Didn't ask her. I am a little excited about it however.

Vegas books are a joke. They don't want real action....An unnamed large book out there needed to call the head of the race + sportsbook for me to put a grand on a matchup between Smarty and Lion Heart in the Derby. This isn't 20 grand and it was a week before the Derby. They could balance action easily. (By the way, Smarty was a dog in that matchup--like printing money)
