BB will be 1-9. I'm hoping to get about 10-1 on Casino Drive.... it shouldn't be lower than about 7-1 minimum.

If I get 7-1 on The ACE I'm cashing out a CD.

Let me get this straight. Currently we're looking at a seven-horse field with no contenders in the race other than those two, and somehow.. 7-1 to 10-1?

Right.

Even if 2-3 more horses enter (as should be expected), there's no way he's higher than 3-1. With the field as it is now, he'll be 5-2 maximum.

If it were just a 2 horse field, and Big Brown was 1-9, Casino Drive would have to be at least 6-1.

I agree there. I just thought that was the given scenario.

Denis of Cork will get some play. I say Big Brown will be 1-5 or lower, with CD 5-1 at best.

As of right now, you can bet Big Brown to win the Belmont and you only have to lay -280. They are offering that line at thegreek.com, which is one of the most reputable on-line race and sports books. If you think that he won't win, you can get +240.

On race day, I think he will be somewhere between 1-5 and 2-5.
