Try more like 4/1 favorite, especially becuase they will connect him to the "Barbaro route"

I could have had 7-1 at CRIS immediately after the race yesterday, but decided against it. First, I wasn't sure that was good enough; second, I already have a good chunk of change on All Others from Pool 1 of the Ky Derby Future Wager, and a smaller amount on All Others from Pool 2.

Odds now at both CRIS and World Sports Exchange are a ridiculous 2-1. If Pinnacle and TheGreek get around to posting odds, it will be closer to 4-1, I think.

I don't have the time to go through the charts to verify, but the favorites at post time have done at least reasonably well the last dozen years or so at the Derby. Street Sense, Smarty Jones and Barbaro come to mind (though Sweetnorthernsaint may have been the betting favorite, I really can't recall).

Yep, he was the final favorite, although Brother Derek was the M/L fave. The Cliff's Edge was the M/L favorite for 2004 at 4-1, although Smarty did go off as the favorite when the gates opened.

I have heard that Pinnacle is shuting out horse people now, especially the winners......

They automatically closed my account when they stopped taking US customers.

They dropped their WPS rebate from 7% to 5% in November. So they were probably not doing great with that.
