I would be surprised if anyone got better than 4-1, maybe 9-2, and I assume most of the off odds will be slightly higher than the ML, as I find it hard to believe the Calabrese actually goes off at 9-5.
I was thinking along the same lines. I don't have the PP's in front of me yet either, just going from memory. Fav goes off about 3-1 was my first thought and if my memory's right (which it is 99% of the time), I think that the 4 is the horse to beat, not the FCC one. That #1 horse always takes some $$ (think part due to the low ML). I never liked that horse when first came here from CA and it's proved me right almost everytime it ran, overrated.
If the 'toga bunch bets on KNS, she may even be the post time fav.

See you Thurs!
