I don't know why it's dated 8/6--somebody's goof.

This is a chance for those who have already annointed Bernardini as the 2nd coming of Spectacular Bid to cash in. I was tempted myself, but decided to pass.

Limits are low, and will remain so until Pinnacle takes in some more action on the prop.

I would take Barbaro in a heartbeat. IN order for Bernadini to win this prop he will have to defeat older horses in either the JCGC or Breeders Cup. I think he will meet his Waterloo when he gets to Flower Alley this fall. The voters simply won't annoint him champ unless he beats the older horses.

If you liked Barbaro at -107, you have to love him at +121. I'm leaning in that direction myself.

BTW, the reason it is dated for 8/6 is that is when they are taking the line down..Line comes down on 8/6 at 9am PST

I think that is what it is..

My limit is 285.71, like yours

my limits on head to head matchups are now at $500 at Toga...yesterday they were $200

the eclipse bet is still $200

But that date makes no sense at all. If Bernardini were racing on 8/6 it would make sense. I think they meant to write 8/26, which is the date of the Travers.
