Gotcha. Sounds like you're psyching yourself out more than anything. Like Philcski said, you're already in a great position. If he wins, you're golden because those odds are about four times what others will be getting on him on Derby Day. I think that his suggestion is the best, hedge that bet with a couple of others on other horses that you think have the best chance to ruin your future ticket so that if Daddy loses you'll still come out with something. And if he does win, you're still banking.
