I think you get 6/1 on Step on Belmont day and the favorite will be 4/1.
As you probably know, Pinnacle is seldom nuts. They apparently did get action on Steppenwolfer at +430. The line has dropped to +419. I don't think he goes off anywhere near 6-1. I'll be surprised if he is 5-1.

For those that like Sunriver, the best I see around is 9-2 at Pinnacle. Sacred Light is 18-1 at several sportsbooks.
