i agree with slotdirt, but i will go a step further i'd say im 100 percent sure the derby winner comes off this list.

Well, in that case, I definitely change my mind.

It's must be nice to know things 100%.

Considering that 23% of the money in the Future Wager pool was bet on "All others", you could have bet on every listed horse and guaranteed yourself a nice profit. In other words, the money on "All others" more than offset the 16% takeout. You should have borrowed all the money you could so that you could have had your sure 7% profit in 3 months. That's what I would have done if I was 100% sure of making 7% on my money in 3 months.

I can't believe I missed out on taking 12-1 on Circular Quay. Next thing I'll find out I could have gotten something around 35-1 on Lawrence the Roman.

PT Barnum.....right again!

As much as I wanted to bet Any Given Saturday......there wasn't enough value in taking 14/1 odds on him, for a race 12 weeks in the future, that will have a 17-to-20 horse field, when he has yet to even make his 3yo debut.

Of his three Derby preps---two will come at low-profile Tampa Bay Downs, and the other is supposed to come in the Blue Grass Stakes---over an artifical surface. His win over KEE's polytrack last fall was overrated...and not even close to being as good as his race at Churchill was.

[POINTGIVEN1985]

that is all good... but when you look at horses like ravel and no biz, they are 2 good races each away from being 5-1 or lower , and there is nothing at all to suggest they wont improve, and thats just 2 of the many on the list. if no biz wins out going up to the derby, which ALOT of ppl belive he will do , your looking at no better then 5-2, so how is there no value in 8-1

dunbar... i also would like to say if you think i am wrong in making the statement that i made, then im sure you would be intrested in making a friendly wager, i will take all the horses on the list, i will give you everyone else... and instead of the chalkey odds you would get betting the field, i will give you 6-1. if intrested repond

If Dunbar doesn't take the bet I will.

I'll take 4-1.

I will even let you decide if you want to use your attorney's escrow account or mine.

PM me your info.

Let's get this going.

I assume you'd want me to wager at least $1000 to make it worth your while.

If I don't hear from you I'll just assume you're a young kid who should be studying harder than he is as opposed to a true gambler who can truly play with the big kids.

[POINTGIVEN1985]

sent to stud.. yes i want the bet, and yes i am a young kid, but what does that have to do with anything ? i can cover the bet, you pick the ammount, and well i guess its 4-1, because you said that.

Dang, STS, you underbid me! But you're right, 4-1 is a great price. If you can set things up with ThisIsMyLastPost, go ahead. Hell, if he really puts up the money, you can lay it off to me at 7-2 and make an instant profit!

Frankly, I think the chance that he has/sends the money is close to nil. But I NEVER say 0%. ;>)
