Worst KD futures bet?

Not early ones either...I'm talking about after the New Year.

I think mine was Superfly.

I bet Palmeiro in the futures. Silly

Nearly all future bets are silly.

It is not really that any single horse is a bad bet in and of itself. It is more the idea of betting a race months in advance without knowing who will actually be in the race, what the track conditions will be, what post they will draw, how the track is playing, etc.

We would never bet any race without actual information like this. The Derby should be no different.

Because if you catch one before he really pops, you can get 10x the odds....

If you approach it like a lottery ticket than it is ok.
