If anyone wants a real future bet in Vegas PM me and I'll be happy to make it at Wynn next week.

Pioneer of the Nile will be much lower than 20-1 after Sunday IMO.

[Linny]

The betting ends on Sunday and Old Fashioned runs on Monday. That's like in prior years when the betting closed on Sunday at 6pm and a major race went off in Cali at 6:30.

I'd be very surprised if Hello Broadway is anywhere close to his morning line odds.
I'd say he's around 20-1 when the wagering closes.

[Linny]

Pioneerof the Nile is very high, relative to where he'll close. Capt Candyman Can is low relative to where he'll close off a sprint win in his return. Beethoven is very low off an off theboard return, in spite of a poor post etc. I wouldn't take a guaranteed 100-1 on any of the horses in Dubai and Notonthesamepage and This ones for Phil should be about 75-1 as they both look better suited to sprints. (Dutrow was quoted as saying something about improving Phil by taking him back to his "best distance.")

[Monarchos1]

I don't know why they included This One's for Phil, given that he isn't even nominated. Geez, they only have 23 individual horses and you'd think they could at least list horses that are currently eligible. Seems kind of fraudulent to me because some folks playing these will just be looking at names and not even understand. But perhaps that's why they did it. Reminds me of that silly Calder Derby - KY Derby bet last year when nearly half of the horses listed for the latter part of the bet were no longer under consideration.

Arlington sends out vouchers for this, I have $35 in free future wagers. Gonna put it on Silver City and Papa Clem.
