Why even think about betting on this race? Unless you have a strong opinion, which I think may be next to impossible, this is a race to just sit back and watch, one for the ages.

RA to win big and backwheel exacta. It will be the first time in a year you get anything close to even money on her.

I think the best you can do is buy a ticket and keep it as souvenir. In the future that ticket will have a collectible value.

Make a $50 win bet on Zenyatta, and after Zenyatta loses, sell the ticket to Smooth Operator for $100.

Easy money.

I agree

this is not a race that you can make money on unless neither of them are in the exacta and who would bet that

Money is good to just run in the top four with every horse getting cash just to run. I wonder when they'll announce whose being given the Golden Ticket to get into the gate of 10?
