Will I get 2-1?
 
Considering his 101 Beyer Speed Figure will be the highest last-race Beyer in the Belmont field, and considering Kent said he is a monster, will I get 2-1 on Casino Drive, whom I think is the most likely winner of the race?

Also, if someone could give me odds on Casino Drive being named Champion 3-Year-Old, that would be great.

Let me know how much 2-1 you want. My window is wide open for you.

By the way, you can think whatever you want, but Casino Drive isn't the " most likely winner. "

Travis Stone 05-19-2008 11:29 AM

The most likely winner by far is Big Brown.

I read a really hilarious post the other day. Someone said, "Now its a matter of whether or not (Big Brown) can handle Casino Drive."

Ha. It's more of a, "Can Casino Drive handle Big Brown?"

Come on, guys, betwixt the Japanese flag avatar and the most likely winner stuff, are you really taking Justin seriously? He's already said he's going to be Casino Drive's water-bearer after the banishment of Better than Honour.

I found someone who gave me 10-1, and I wagered accordingly.

With the likes of Student Council, Grasshopper, Heatseeker, Go Between, and Tiago in the handicap division this year, I don't see how Zanjero can possibly win a Grade I.

Maybe next year.

BB will be 1-9. I'm hoping to get about 10-1 on Casino Drive.... it shouldn't be lower than about 7-1 minimum.

If I get 7-1 on The ACE I'm cashing out a CD.

If Blackthroatedwind can't fill your order @ 2-1 I will be happy to take any remaining amount you want.

I was wrong. I made a prediction, and it was wrong. Isn't that hilarious?

Let me get this straight. Currently we're looking at a seven-horse field with no contenders in the race other than those two, and somehow.. 7-1 to 10-1?

Right.

Even if 2-3 more horses enter (as should be expected), there's no way he's higher than 3-1. With the field as it is now, he'll be 5-2 maximum.

If it were just a 2 horse field, and Big Brown was 1-9, Casino Drive would have to be at least 6-1.

Big Brown won't be 1-9.

knickslions2 05-19-2008 01:00 PM

Denis of Cork will get some play. I say Big Brown will be 1-5 or lower, with CD 5-1 at best.

I agree there. I just thought that was the given scenario.
