That's not necessarily true, Randall. If you went into the Derby with those 3 horses at those odds, you would probably have been able to construct a bet on each of the other horses that would have guaranteed you a win no matter which horse won.
That's actually close to my approach to the Derby. I try to pick up futures along the way that will allow me an arbitrage come Derby Day.
Too bad the offshore scene has changed so dramatically from a year ago.
