It doesn't look like Justify will be wildly overbet. With $2.67 million in the win pool, $1.14 million has been bet on Justify. That's just 43% of the win pool on Justify. 43% is in the ballpark for what I think his chances to win are.

I doubt that there will be a big rush of money on Justify. Justify's odds have been creeping up all day at PinnacleSports, and now stand at 1.10-1. (And if you want to bet that Justify doesn't win, you have to put up 125 to win 100, up from 116 earlier.)

It looks like I'll be a spectator on this one.
