Here's the odds available right now in a loose market that will tighten up a lot more by Saturday.

Mine That Bird (28/1)
Colonel John (26/1)
Summer Bird (7.4-to-1)
Zenyatta (3.1-to-1)
Twice Over (15/1)
Richard's Kid (21/1)
Gio Ponti (15/1)
Einstein (26/1)
Girolamo (39/1)
Rip Van Winkle (2/1)
Regal Ransom (39/1)
Quality Road (12/1)
Awesome Gem (74/1)

WOW...Gio Ponti and Einstein look like big overlays.

Still very little liquidity... unless you hate Zenyatta chances at the 3.4-to-3.8 odds range.

Numbers are win odds +1. Back is to win. Lay is to bet against winning.

How difficult is it to set up an account on one of these exchanges?

Impossible if you live in the US. I used to do pretty well laying off odds on favorites on IBETX. They booted all US customers and I can't find an exchange that will accept them.

You can use a proxy server or other means to hide your IP
www.hidemyip.com
You can come in through Canada, Germany, UK, or Asia. You pick the country.

Still will need a physical address outside US at signup.

No we dont. We need a system like Betfair that's controlled by horsemen/some national industry pool that allow those types of bets and props, but keeps the money within the industry. The purse structure in Europe is whack.
