War Pass at 11-1 is the biggest bet against in the history of futures, lol...

Me and a buddy of mine do a handful every year, fully realizing that it's a bad bet. It's just fun to try and pick out a derby horse early. We only take them at big odds.

Here's what we have for this year (some bet in Sept. and some in Nov.)

J Be K 75-1
Ready's Echo 100-1
Sangaree 125-1
Major General 125-1
Wicked Style 125-1
Referee 150-1
Eaton's Gift 150-1
Cave's Valley 150-1
Paint 150-1
Aquarian 200 -1

Does anyone know what the odds are for Dennis of Cork (if he's even listed)?

I've already missed the wedding with Denis of Cork. Loved him first time out and couldn't get to the track that day.

The fact that Borel took the ride when he had very little history with the trainer and Nafzger had a horse in the race was a big tip-off that he can run. . . He showed a lot of maturity in his debut. . .

Denis of Cork wasn't listed as of 11/20, but after that win, I'm sure he was added. I'm guessing he's around the 75-1 range at Wynn.

I got Referee and Aquarian last week at Wynn.
My father lives in Nevada, so I have him stop by the Wynn occasionally and check the odds for me.
