Thanks for the link. If the 4/19 Wynn odds are still accurate today, then Wynn's odds are better than either TheGreek or 5Dimes for 4 horses: Endorsement (27-1), Make Music For Me (75-1), Awesome Act (20-1), and Stately Victor (40-1).

I just posted TheGreek's and 5Dimes' futures in another thread.

Dunbar, I kept this from Pinnacle last year before race...

Just imagine you had put 100 on him

That's why 50-1 was an underlay. You deserved far more if you cashed on him.

Yep, at 200-1, MTB might have been tempting. He was "only" 100-1 in my own line. 5Dimes was only offering 110-1, and TheGreek 85-1.

Pinnacle will probably put up a line for this year's Derby next week.

My thoughts exactly.

someone must have plunked down some decent change on him.

American Lion was a popular future bet late in 2009 and early in 2010.
I think they moved his line down to 12-1 around the start of January.
I got him at 40-1 in November a few weeks after his strong maiden win at Keenland, which was obviously way too low of a price to take on him at that point, but it was just for $10.

His current line isn't indicitive of what he'll be on derby day, but Wynn is keeping it low since they took so much action on him several months ago, before the major 3-yo preps.
