Future bet are about as stupid of a bet as they come, I do not care what odds are being paid, or what sport you are betting on.

Good Luck!!!!

And I would say getting 100-1 on Sweetnorth in Feb and 125-1 on AP Warrior in March shows that playing futures can payoff. Didn't win, but that is serious value, and if you can do that a hundred times you will end up in the black.

But 7-1 on any kind of future just isn't the thing to do.

7-1 are decent odds on LM, he probaby goes to post at 4-1 or 5-1, so if you really like him, you are getting a little value. I don't know if the difference between getting a premium of 7-1 over 5-1 is enough to offset the risk of getting in the gate and post position is enough to accept that 2 point spread, but if he goes off at a 3 point spread, that's not too bad. I give LM a shot, you know CD will have that track rock hard and he will probably like it. Good Luck Curt, that's a nice present...
