Future bets: Who has them?
 

I invested $260 total (got a little nuts cause I was winning on the day both pools were open) into the KY Derby Exacta and Oaks Exacta. The R Heat Lighting defection really benefited me and have a great chance to be 'out' after the Oaks.

The tickets I'm still alive with
Only uncovered with Kathmanblu in race will be Bouquet Booth, Summer Soiree, and Holy Heavens

Only uncovered with Santiva is Decisive Moment and Comma to the Top, and I'll be boxing with those two with Santiva for $3 on Derby Day to have complete coverage if Santiva wins or runs 2nd.

50% of my Oaks action is still alive
82.86% of my Derby action is still alive (hoping I didn't speak too soon)

Best Value has to be the Joyful Victory / Kathmanblu exacta box, it has to be paying $20-25 on Oaks Day, and I am getting $135/$140.

Pool 2
I have $20 Win on Archarcharch

$1 exacta Box
Mutual Field, Uncle Mo, Archarcharch, Dialed In, Stay Away, Jaycito

These are the only 2 bets made($50. Total) so they are both at least partially active

Only alive to Dialed in at 35-1 in a future wager in Vegas from early December. The Hilton had him at 75-1 up until the Holy Bull in late January, but there futures book wasn't available in early December when I made the bet.
Future bets I ripped up:

To honor and serve 125-1
Elite Alex 150-1
Brethren 100-1
Leave of Absence 150-1
Bandbox 200-1
Anthonys Cross 200-1

I'm DOA

Gourmet Dinner 55/1
Tapizar 50/1

Im DOA as well:

All first pool:

Sweet Ducky- Liked the name

Silver Medallion- Took DrugS tip

Brethren- Pletcher Hype

The Factor- Was looking pretty smart for a few weeks

I have Twice the Appeal at 225-1. Not expecting to cash but who knows.

That is how I feel about the Derby action. I'm hoping that I hit the Oaks exacta and the Derby is a complete freeroll.

From the first pool I have

$20 win Stay Thirsty (alive) 40-1

$20 win Rogue Romance (Dead) 34-1

Great to have that much action alive still regardless. Its a 20 horse field. Strange things happen.

I also have Stay Thirsty at the same odds and exacta wheel. This will be my back up bet as I will look elsewhere

UNCLE MO over DIALED IN - pool#1
DIALED IN with "field" - pool#1
DIALED IN over UNCLE MO - pool#3

I have a small win on Mucho Macho Man from Pool 1 and a small win from Pool 2 on Archarcharch left.

Pool 3 - Animal Kingdom @ 31-1, I project he'll go off in the 20-1 range. Not much value but always fun to have some future action.

He will go off higher than 20-1. I would guess higher than 31-1 as well.

I have fairly huge action on "All Others" from Pool 1. The action is split 60/40 between the win pool and the exacta pool. (I bet every one of the All Others/Listed horse exactas. My goal wasn't to find the right exacta, my goal was to spread my action so that I'd profit the same no matter which horse completed the exacta.)

That gives me these horses to win:

ArchArchArch
Pants On Fire
Midnight Interlude
Brilliant Speed
Master of Hounds
Nehro
Twice the Appeal
Animal Kingdom
Watch Me Go
Shackleford
Twinspired
Derby Kitten
Sway Away

I also have a big bet (but not as big as my Pool 1 bet) on All Others from Pool 2, all of it in exactas. I'll win my Pool 2 bet with all the same horses above except that ArchArchArch and Sway Away are out and Decisive Moment is in.

--Dunbar

Only Stay Thirsty(40-1) is left for me.

Pool 1: $2 win on Santiva. Liked his late run in Risen Star that I had attended that weekend.

Dead money: Santiva-Sweet Ducky exacta

I hate to bring this back up, but .

Do really think that the switch to Johnny V had that much of an effect on his odds?

Gus...I think what I bet on him did that:D

and there were plenty of witnesses:$:

Did you smash it Bob??? If so that's awesome!
