Great to have that much action alive still regardless. Its a 20 horse field. Strange things happen.

I also have Stay Thirsty at the same odds and exacta wheel. This will be my back up bet as I will look elsewhere

Pool 3 - Animal Kingdom @ 31-1, I project he'll go off in the 20-1 range. Not much value but always fun to have some future action.

He will go off higher than 20-1. I would guess higher than 31-1 as well.

I have fairly huge action on "All Others" from Pool 1. The action is split 60/40 between the win pool and the exacta pool. (I bet every one of the All Others/Listed horse exactas. My goal wasn't to find the right exacta, my goal was to spread my action so that I'd profit the same no matter which horse completed the exacta.)

That gives me these horses to win:

ArchArchArch
Pants On Fire
Midnight Interlude
Brilliant Speed
Master of Hounds
Nehro
Twice the Appeal
Animal Kingdom
Watch Me Go
Shackleford
Twinspired
Derby Kitten
Sway Away

I also have a big bet (but not as big as my Pool 1 bet) on All Others from Pool 2, all of it in exactas. I'll win my Pool 2 bet with all the same horses above except that ArchArchArch and Sway Away are out and Decisive Moment is in.

I hate to bring this back up, but .

Do really think that the switch to Johnny V had that much of an effect on his odds?

Good call on the pick and the actual odds, too.
