I passed on the Derby because of my horrible track record, lifetime ofer. But i did throw a 50 on eight Belles for the heck of it. At least if she makes it she wont be running in a 20 horse field....

$100 Smooth Air (187-1 with under 5 minutes left and is 75-1 in Vegas at the moment)

$50 Into Mischief (29-1, while 30-1 in Vegas. And he races about an hour AFTER the pool closes)

187-1 on Smooth Air is way too high. . . His beyers are higher than a bunch of these horses and his tomlinson rating for 10F is actually pretty decent. . . I was thinking he was a sprinter type but now i'm not so sure. . . wish I had looked before the pools closed. . .
