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.

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

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.

Binding? Says who?

90% of the people here don't give a sh1t and the other 10% can't remember what they had for lunch today.

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%. ;>)
