Luv Gov 52.5 Greek
Charitable Man 3.65 Greek
Mine That Bird 1.93 Pinn
Flying Private 30.5 Greek
Miner's Escape 40.5 Greek
Brave Victory 40.5 Greek

That combined line has a 3% takeout. The biggest differences in the 3 books are on Flying Private and Luv Gov. TheGreek had Flying Private at +2550 yesterday and is up to +3050 today. Meanwhile, both Pinnacle and 5Dimes are around 15-1 for Flying Private. TheGreek is also much more generous on Luv Gov. Luv Gov is 30-1 at the other 2 books.
Overnight changes:

The most amusing change, to me at least, is that Pinnacle's odds on Miner's Escape and Brave Victory have dropped from 40-1 to 14.8-1. Only a few other small changes at Pinnacle, including lowering Mine That Bird from 1.93-1 to 1.90-1.

At TheGreek, the only change at all was a lowering of Mine That Bird's odds from 1.85-1 to 1.6-1.

5Dimes did a lot of tweaking, but still isn't offering the best odds on any horse.
