Does the public bet this early on hunch bets? And do they make $980,000 of feel-good bets?! (as of 4:30ish). I'm surprised that so many people would even know that Patch is blind in one eye, before they hear it during the Derby broadcast.
With a 3-race resume', we don't really know how good Patch is yet. Someone must think he's pretty good.
