Im guessing Z is around 2-1 at post time. Blame and Lucky anywhere from 3-1 to 5-1, but not 7-1. And QR anywhere from 5-1 to 8-1.
Partly because Pinnacle's odds are like a 14% takeout, compared to the 16% at CD, and partly because we don't know for sure which 14 of those 16 horses are going to go.

Also, as robfla suggested, we're used to smaller fields in which the money is more concentrated on a few horses.

Zenyatta, Lookin at Lucky, Blame must all run for action
