If I could I would buy at 14-1 now and sell after the Wood but things don't work that way.

You can probably do that on E-Horse or whatever that site is

why not take 14-1 now and keep it ? ever hear of something called VALUE, if he wins this saturday there is not chance he goes off anything over 4-1 in the derby, why not keep the 14-1, even if you dont like him ? he will be forwardley placed and give you a good thrill for your money, at odds that are a lot better then you will get on derby day

Why would you take a horse you dont like just because he has value? If you dont think the horse can win the derby, why bet him. A great thrill for your money.... If your looking for a thrill go play craps or blackjack..... I wouldn't bet a horse that had early speed just so i could have a "thrill" for my money....
