They lowered their odds on QR, but what I like is that they raised the odds on POTN, FF, and several others. Some books act like the only direction on odds is down. I don't remember 5Dimes being so competitive with horse futures before. The above 21-horse odds line has a takeout (vig) of 8.4%. The real takeout from these odds is 8.4% plus the chance some horse not on the list wins the Derby. --Dunbar
