TheGreek put up some matchups today. I'm amused by the first one: (Note that +225 means you get 2.25 to 1; -115 means you put up 1.15 to win 1.)

C's vs S's vs Any other
Wager is on the horses who's 1st name begins with a "C", an "S" or any other horse that runs in the 2007 Kentucky Derby
1801 Horse with 1st name begin with "C" +225

4/20 changes:

CQ down from 10.15-1 to 9.85-1 at TheGreek. Oddly, up to 11-1 at World
NoBiz up from 8.25-1 to 8.85-1 at TheGreek.
StreetSense up from 6.85-1 to 7.05-1 at TheGreek
AGS up to 15.42 at Pinny
Scat Daddy up to 8.91 at Pinny

Here's the current list:

AnyGivSat'day 15.42 Pinny (15 Bodog)
Belgravia 70 Bodog
Chelokee 30 Pinny (25 Bodog)
CircularQuay 11 World (9.85 Greek)
Cobalt Blue 100 Pinny (52.5 Greek)
Cowtown Cat 26.5 Greek
Curlin 4.45 Greek

Street Sense 7.05 Greek
Teuflesberg 100 Pinny (80.5 Greek)
Tiago 18.15 TheGreek
Zanjero 37 Bodog

Those odds imply a 6% takeout.
Some better values can be found at EhorseX. Cowtown Cat is being offered at 34-1 and Curlin is 5.5-1, for example.

--Dunbar

scat daddy being lower odds then street sense is almost laughable in my opinion, what did street sense do wrong in the bluegrass not to be loved in the derby ? scat daddy reminds me so so much of high fly a few years back, beats up on weak florida competition and will go to the derby and not run a lick, possibly finish last.

4/21 update

AGS now up to 16.03-1 (from 15.42) at Pinnacle
Scat Daddy up to 9.13-1 (from (8.91) at Pinnacle
Curlin up to 4.65 at TheGreek (from 4.45; this happened a couple days ago, but I didn't have it updated on the list below)

Here is the updated list. One or more of these future books will probably take its odds down today because of the "preps". TheGreek is sometimes very slow at putting the odds back up again.

AnyGivSat'day 16.03 Pinny (15 Bodog)
Belgravia 70 Bodog
Chelokee 30 Pinny (25 Bodog)
CircularQuay 11 World

Zanjero 37 Bodog

The implied takeout using these odds is 5.5%

4/22:

TheGreek and Bodog took their Derby future odds down yesterday, fearing I don't know what. TheGreek was back up this morning, but Bodog still doesn't have a futures line posted. I'll wait until tomorrow to update the list.

Of some interest is that Curlin has been bet down below 3-1 at Pinnacle (2.94). Pinnacle acts almost like a parimutual, moving odds quickly to react to bets. TheGreek, in contrast, will often take a stand and be hard to budge. (TheGreek have been between 4.45-1 and 4.65-1 on Curlin since I started watching.) The odds at Pinnacle are probably a rough indicator of what to expect on Derby Day.

I found it also interesting that Street Sense is favored over Curlin in a matchup at TheGreek. It's now:

Curlin +100
Street Sense -125

--Dunbar

Dunbar need your opinion.

I will be using my pinni account for futures.
I have been following the lines sice last week. I noticed they just jumped a little after 6pm today.

I will be using 700$.
I am trying to figure out if I will get better value at post time.

100$, is going on Stormello at 75-1. I believe his odds will be down come post time.

What do you think about Hard Spun currently +1446. He came out last week on pinni at around +1110. Do you think I should keep waiting or he will not get any higher then +1446?

My other bet will be Great Hunter currently +2276. I think he was around +1300 last Sunday. Great hunter 23-1. I have to attack those odds.

If you had to bet the two. HS and GH how would you spend your 600$ on them?


Thanks man.

Marky, I haven't made even a rough line yet for the Derby. I don't have a strong opinion on any of the 3 horses you mentioned. Until I make a line, I can only talk comfortably about whether Pinnacle's odds appear in line with others. Others here can give you stronger (and probably better) opinions on whether any of the 3 horses have value at the odds you are looking at.

I was going to point out that Stormello at 75-1 is so far above TheGreek's 45-1 that it looks out-of-line and probably worth a bet. But now I see that TheGreek's odds on Stormello have risen to 52.5-1. That's still pretty far below 75-1, but it's an indication that there has so far been no interest in betting on Stormello. Still, I think 75-1 is going to look generous compared to his odds on raceday.

Hard Spun is +1415 at TheGreek. That's so close to the Pinnacle line (+1446) that I don't think you'd do much worse waiting until the Derby to bet it.

Great Hunter at 22.76-1 is substantially better than TheGreek's 18-1. Also, WorldSportsExchange dropped from 20-1 to 15-1 (which doesn't mean much since they are seldom competitive).

It will be easier to judge these when EhorseX gets active again. (The principal line maker there seems to have pulled his/her bets this morning.)

Whatever odds you are looking at, don't forget to discount it a little for the chance the horse doesn't make it to the starting gate. I'm using a discount of 10% for the next several days. (I'm thinking that on average, 2 of the 20-22 horses are going to drop out in the next 2 weeks because of fever, injury, etc.) So, Great Hunter at 22.76-1 today is like getting about 20-1 on Derby Day. By next week the discount I use will drop to 5%.

--Dunbar

I made the same comparison a few weeks back, but in fairness, high fly didn't run terrible. Coming into the far turn, he was right on the lead but as expected, faded badly down the stretch.
I'm concerned about Scat Daddy doing the same thing. I think he might be at his best around 1/16 mile or so.

4/24 update

Overall odds are improving. Implied takeout is 2%, but doesn't include a couple of possible horses. (Slew'sTizzy, Imawild, eg)

Scat Daddy up from 9.13 to over 10-1 at Pinny
Stormello down from 75-1 to 30-1 at Pinny (Marky must have made his bet!). Best now is 52.50-1 at TheGreek
Street Sense down from 7.05 to 6.85 at TheGreek
Tiago up from 18-1 to 20.5 at TheGreek

The implied takeout using these odds is 2%

--Dunbar

(Edited to remove Belgravia from list.)
(Edited to correct odds in list on Tiago and Zanjero)

Good stuff, 19-1 on Any Given Saturday is extremely interesting. I can't see him going off higher than 12-1 on Derby Day and wouldn't be surprised to see him get under 10-1.

Hit a 100 on Stormello yesterday, he dropped to 30-1 right away.

Just hit 300$ on GH. he was +2340. As soon as I went back to look pinni dropped his line to +1800.

Next in line is my main bet Hard SPun. 400$. I am trying to see if pinni will bring him a little higher. Would like to get him at +1550.


GL

Here's the line I came up with today. . . Probably needs some tweaking. . .
 

Curlin – 9/2
Street Sense – 6/1
Nobiz Like Shobiz – 9/1
Scat Daddy – 10/1
Circular Quay – 12/1
Any Given Saturday – 15/1
Hard Spun – 15/1
Tiago – 18/1
Dominican – 20/1
Great Hunter – 24/1
Zanjero – 28/1
Cowtown Cat – 30/1
Sam P. – 35/1
Liquidity – 50/1
Cobalt Blue – 60/1
Stormello – 75/1
Teuflesburg – 80/1
Sedgefield – 90/1
Storm in May – 100/1
Slew’s Tizzy- 100/1

Looks pretty good to me, hockey. The odds add to 104%, so you'd have to raise the odds on one or more horses to get it to 100%. But 104% is way closer to 100% than most people post.

According to your line, the biggest bargains in the futures right now would be Cobalt Blue (offered at 100-1) and SamP (offered at 45-1). Yesterday's 19-1 on AGS has disappeard.

--Dunbar

4/25 update
Several horse's odds have been pushed way up at Pinnacle due to heavy betting on Curlin. Check out Hard Spun and Scat Daddy, in particular.

AGS down from 19-1 to 14-1 at Pinny. Sniper must have struck!
Cowtown Cat down from 26.5-1 to 20.5-1 at Greek, but up to 23.57-1 at Pinny.
Curlin must be taking big action at Pinnacle. Down to 2.13-1. (Still 4.65-1 at Greek)
Dominican up to 23.67-1 at Pinnacle
Great Hunter up to 25.97-1 at Pinny
Hard Spun up to 19.66-1 at Pinny
Scat Daddy up from 10-1 to 12.32-1 at Pinny
Tiago up to 22.69 at Pinny

Here is the updated list.

AnyGivSat'day 15 Bodog
Chelokee 30 Pinny (25 Bodog)
CircularQuay 11 World
Cobalt Blue 100 Pinny (52.5 Greek)
Cowtown Cat 23.57 Pinny (20.5 Greek)
Curlin 4.65 Greek
Dominican 23.67 (22.5 Greek)
Great Hunter 25.97 Pinny (20 Bodog)
Hard Spun 19.66 Pinny (14.15 Greek)
Liquidity 50 World
Nobiz Shobiz 9 World

Street Sense 7.05 Greek
Teuflesberg 100 Pinny (80.5 Greek)
Tiago 22.69 Pinny (20.5 TheGreek)
Zanjero 30 Bodog, Pinny

The implied takeout using these odds is 0%. That's right. You could bet everyone of those horses proportionally, and the only way you'd lose would be if a horse not listed (eg, Slew's Tizzy) won.

Marky, if you haven't taken your Hard Spun yet, I suspect that today is the day to do it. The high odds at Pinnacle are probably a very short term aberration that resulted from some big betting on Curlin.

--Dunbar

Wish I did, that 19-1 was a steal.

I thought I had it at 116% to account for take-out. . . maybe I did it wrong. . . I've never done one before

Hockey, here's how you check whether the odds add to 100% (or to 116%, or whatever you are shooting for.)

Take each horse's odds, and calculate 1/(1+odds). Then add them up.

So, for Curlin you'd have 1/(1+4.5) = 0.182.
for Street Sense, you'd have 1/(1+6) = 0.142.
and so on down to Slew's Tizzy at 1/(1+100) = 0.010

When I add those up for your line, I get 1.045 (=104.5%).

It may be an interesting exercise to try to produce a morning line with a 16% takeout (to see how close you can come to the bettors?), but I think it's much more useful to work on a line where the odds add to 100%. If your "100% line" is good, then you can look for bets on horses with odds higher than those in your line. You can't do that when your line is a 16% takeout line. (well, you can do it, but you have to go far enough over to allow for the takeout.)

--Dunbar

PS--to convert the odds to takeout, there is actually one more step. You take the total (1.045 in your case), and calculate 1/1.045 = 0.957. That's the "pay back". The track take is 1 - "payback" = 1 - 0.957 = 4.3%.

For example, if you really want a 16% takeout line, then when you add up the terms 1/(1+odds) for each of your horses, it should add to 119%. Then the last step shows that 1 - 1/1.19 = 16%. Hope I didn't lose you on that one.

Thanks! That helps a lot. . .

4/26 update
Some more big jumps at Pinny. Note Dominican, Great Hunter, and SamP in particular. Best odds on Street Sense drop from 7-1 to 5.25-1.

AGS up to 16.4-1 at Pinny
Cowtown Cat up from 23.57-1 to 30-1 at Pinny
Dominican up from 24-1 to 35-1 at Pinny
Great Hunter up from 26-1 to 35-1 at Pinny
Hard Spun down from 19.66-1 to 17.22-1 at Pinny
SamP up from 45-1 to 60-1 at Pinny
Scat Daddy down from 12.32 to 7.29 at Pinny (now 9-1 at World)
Stormello down from 75-1 to 30-1 at Pinny
Street Sense down from 7-1 to 5.25 at TheGreek
Tiago down from 22-1 to 14.71-1 at Pinny (still 20.5-1 at Greek)

Here is the updated list.

AnyGivSat'day 16.4 Pinny (15 Bodog)
Chelokee 30 Pinny (25.5 Greek)
CircularQuay 11 World
Cobalt Blue 100 Pinny (52.5 Greek)
Cowtown Cat 30 Pinny (22.5 Greek)
Curlin 4.65 Greek
Dominican 35 Pinny (22.5 Greek)
Great Hunter 35 Pinny (20 Bodog)
Hard Spun 17.22 Pinny (15.25 Greek)
Liquidity 50 World
Nobiz Shobiz 9 World

Sam P 60 Pinny (45 Bodog)
Scat Daddy 9 World
Stormello 45.5 Greek
Storm in May 125 Pinny (100 Bodog)
Street Sense 5.4 Pinny (5.25 Greek)
Teuflesberg 100 Pinny (80.5 Greek)
Tiago 20.5 Greek
Zanjero 30 Bodog, Pinny

The implied takeout using these odds is less than 1%. Tiny.

The action on Curlin at Pinnacle (now 5-2) continues to drive up Pinnacle's line on most of the rest of the field. Pinnacle now has the highest odds on 12 of the 21 horses in the list. World Sports Exchange is next with 5. TheGreek has 3. Bodog has just Zanzero, where it is offering the same 30-1 as Pinnacle.

--Dunbar

I can't believe that Great Hunter is now at 35-1. I got him at 24-1 and thought it was a steal. Besides his BlueGrass finish this guy has always fought with the big dogs in his races. I mean 35-1 seems so high, he should be around 15-1 / 20-1 Max.

People on Pinni keep pounding Curlin and CQ. Curlin was +210 yesterday afernoon. Do people no realize just bet him on derby day and you will probably get 9-2 odds on him.

Keep in mind that no one is betting Curlin at +210. But someone(s) probably did make a big bet at 3-1, which then knocked the Pinnacle price down to +210. Now, as the other horses are getting some action, Curlin has risen to +250. I'll be surprised if Curlin's odds don't rise back over 3-1 at Pinnacle.

Even making a big bet on Curlin at 3-1 is hard to understand when TheGreek has been offereing +445 to +465 all along. I would have expected anyone who might make a big bet at Pinnacle would be aware of TheGreek.

As for Great Hunter at 35-1, I can imagine how annoying that must be for you!

--Dunbar

Looks like those wanting 6/1 on Street Sense on Derby day might be out of luck. Everyone seems to be on the SS train.

Great Hunter at 35-1 is absolutely shocking to me.

slew's tizzy will skip the derby, heading to the preakness next.

4/27 update

Just 4 changes from yesterday:

Pinnacle's 35-1 on Great Hunter and Dominican are gone. Both are now about 26-1.

--Dunbar

fyi, here's a note from sportsbookreview.com:

04.21.2007 (02:53 PM CST)

Bodog (SBR rating A+) check processing time extended to three weeks in some cases and as much as ten days for person to person transfers. Management tells SBR it expects processing time to be shortened as transfer volume decreases in baseball season and more processing options are added.

Not a good sign.

4/28 update

TheGreek added lines on Bwana Bull and Sedgefield. I'm adding them to the list and deleting Chelokee.

Otherwise, no changes! Highest odds from yesterday are still there today.

--Dunbar

Dunbar -
if you can...after the post position draw, can you give your morning line for the "Run for the Roses"?
You're much better with the math than me.
Thanks...

--- "HHH"

this is very interesting stuff.

thanks for the postings.

Hockey dont worry to much about the 100%. You would be hard pressed to find any M/L that adds to 100%. They are very often over 120%. I think very few people actually take the time to make the calculations with the exception of a small fraction of the betting public.

Oh yes, it you do see 9/2 just divide the two into the nine (and its 4.5/1) and do the same as Dunbar stated. Sorry if I stated the obvious.

HHH, if you are looking for a guide to how the betting will go on Derby Day, then I think the list of futures is a reasonable estimate of the bettors' sentiments. The numbers seem to have stabilized the past 2 days.

A "morning line" should probably reflect the odds you get with a 16% takeout. The odds in the futures list are only reflecting a 4.5% takeout, so a few of the odds will go off at less than what's showing. I'm guessing Curlin will go off at around 7-2, and Street Sense will go off around 9-2. That would get the apparent takeout up to 11%. Your guess is as good as mine where the remaining 5% difference will come from. (and I could be way off wrt Curlin and Street Sense, for that matter.)

I can post my own line, but I am not brimming with confidence this year! The combination of horses running fewer preps and running some of those fewer preps on synthetic tracks has introduced even more uncertainty than usual. For me, at least.

--Dunbar

I like Street Sense-Tiago,but the best bets on the list are the O'NEIL HORSES.They have all disappointed in their last start,and they gunna be doped up with every secretive concoction this barn can find.

4/29 update

Bodog has taken down its line, but didn't have any solo "best" anyway.

Great Hunter down from 26.62-1 to 21.25-1 at Pinny.
