Prado on Adore the Gold in FOY

NoBiz has been my top choice for a long time but my confidence in him has slipped a bit. I'm looking for him to show a new dimension in the FOY.

I have liked him as top choice as well but agree 100% with comments about "new dimension". He seems to still be figuring things out and granted he might just do that by Derby day, but I am not at all impressed with who he has beated, ie Scat Daddy and Zanjero. Drums of Thunder might be Ok down the line I guess, but all in all he is winning on sheer ability while seemingly still goofing around.

Adore the Gold is my Derby horse as of right now. . . I better bet him big on Saturday because that'll probably be the last time he'll be a decent price. . .

You could have got better than 100-1 odds on Adore the Gold (104/1 in fact) as early as three days ago, through the offshore site Ehorse's betting exchange

Love Mike Gorham as a trainer but still have my doubts about ATG. Prado on a plus but certainly have questions.

But sure would take 104-1 on him

What am I missing here:

Adore the Gold has ZERO SHOT --Prado or otherwise.

You can still get 83-1 at CRIS.

It's BetCris.com, hockey. I'm sorry I didn't stick around long enough yesterday to see your question, because right now the Derby line is not up at CRIS. It's been up for at least a week-and-a-half straight. It was definitely up when I posted yesterday, because I rechecked Adore The Gold's odds before posting. The odds had been as high as 100-1 a week ago.

Hopefully they'll put the Derby futures back up before the weekend.

Thanks!

The odds at betCRIS.com are back up today, and Adore The Gold is still 83-1.

Also, it looks like CRIS will win my coveted "Taking Bets On A Dead Horse" award for the 2nd year in a row. They are still showing Chace City at 140-1. Last year they won the award by listing With A City for weeks after his death.

As bad as it is to see a dead or injured horse still listed, the consolation is that it probably indicates some cluelessness on CRIS's part with regard to the chances of the actual contenders.

I just read that CRIS is moving all US-based accounts over to its sister, Bookmaker.com. Same betting platform.

Adore The Gold's future odds have plummeted from 83-1 all the way down to 80-1!
