Free Oaks & Derby parking passes
 

I've got one set of parking passes at the Kentucky Expo Center for Oaks & Derby days if anyone can use them. You can walk or take the free shuttle to CD from there. Please private message me ONLY if you are definitely going to the races and don't have parking yet.

Was hoping to see Dabster in the Churchill Downs.

favorite is a nice horse but liking Wonder Gadot at 20-1 and My Miss Lilly at 10-1

I dont think i've EVER seen (esp in a 14 horse race) where only 2 horses are below 10-1 in the morning lines. 2/1, 5/2, and then a loooooong way down to 10-1. If you can get past the two favorites, i can see at least 2-3 other horses that will be less than 10-1 come post time. My Miss Lilly, Coach Rocks, and Rayya would be 3 of them, imo.

I don’t think we see 15-1 on the 13 hoss or 10- 1 on the hennig

The dollar super in here is worth taking a big shot . whole Lotta value Rosie

Oaks/Derby DD
 

I should know this - but do most ADWs show the Oaks/Derby probables as betting is going on Friday afternoon?

Do these exist or are we stuck with will-pays only after the Oaks is run?

What a great card. One quick question though. Why the allowance as race 9? Only sane reasoning I can come up with is to accommodate TV scheduling.

I’ve seen a lot of complaints of late (not necessarily on here) when major tracks go postward the same time or way too close together. I dont mind that so much. But what I really don’t get is when they stick an allowance race in the middle of a stakes rich card like this. Makes my head want to explode. Just my personal pet peeve.

Still a great card. Good luck to everyone.

Noticed this also very unusual

Ditto......I feel the same way..lol

The 9 isn't impossible

Has Casse given any indication where he is leaning with Awesome Slew? Distance aside, he has a much better chance of running down Always Dreaming than he does Imperial Hint

I got MMl at 12/1....she dropped to 10/1 about 20 minutes after I placed my wager
