I said TOPS... you never know how all the people who only bet on big days are going to bet.

1:2 is a possibility, 2:5 is more likely.

I'm going to play a small Oaks/ Derby Double.

I know you are kidding, but I can't "empty my wallet" in even a one horse race at 1:2 or less.

I will probably bet just about every dollar I have left on me if she is 1-2 as they're halfway in the gate....and I'm not a fan of betting short chalk ever. But if I can turn, let's say, $100 into $150 on a horse that should absolutely win, I'll take it. Maybe that's stupid, and bordering on coming close the folks I laugh at when their bridge-jumping backfires in an attempt to make five cents on the dollar. Just can't see it any other way.

I guess it was too much to ask for the Oaks card to be out before 3:30.

No sh.it. Tomorrow's card is supposed to be out by 6:00 PM EDT! Amazing...Of course the way the CD meet has gone so far they're probably hustling stakes horses for the undercard.

Don't they usually get the Derby card, without the Derby, out much earlier?

I hope so, as I have to film shows early Thursday morning covering both days stakes, and I really don't feel like staying up all night looking at them.

At least I finished Belmont up through Friday.

Got the desired result.....opened my mouth and the entries came up.

They made 3:30.

I think Zenyatta will have her hands full with One Caroline and Unbridled Belle in a race without much pace
