Updated Derby Chances - Prep Recap

[paulo537]

You can get Mo at 6/1 or more offshore. Good luck with that. I make it 3/1 against him making the Derby.

The Factor displaced, I heard. He's 10/1 to make the Derby.

So I read here the out of the money 4/5 was a "strong underlay" and the 25/1 winner was an (well, of course) overlay.

Easy game.

And you said there was a 50% chance that Dialed In wouldn't even run in the race.

And now you are being smug and talking shit?

Unless something changes with Dialed In in the next 24 hours, I don't see where your statements in this thread justify the smug attitude you've assumed here.

I think Dunbar was the one who said Dialed In wasn't running.

Nope, that was paulo. (post 19)
Dunbar (correctly) told him he was being ridiculous.

Since when is a horse that's 40/1 to win the Kentucky Derby 4 full weeks out - not an overlay at 25/1 in the Arkansas Derby?

Sometimes I seriously think some of you people are hopelessly retarded.

25/1 is a 4% chance of winning.

A repeat of his race in November - over the CD tracks - will easily win the KY Derby - and his two performances this year are about as good as the last two performances of any horse in this crop pointing for the KY Derby.

you are kidding me right? then you post that i'm analytically incompetent...even though i pretty much make my living doing this. its also part of the reason i get mad at your drival. people actually buy this crap as knowledge. his last two performances have been dreadful for a horse thats supposed to be the best.....oh yeah, he ran as good as tobys corner, archarcharch, nehro....ect.....the other guy was more accurate than your crappy 19.5%...that horse is probably 19.5% chance of even running. of course i'm hoping he does. every trainer dreams of having his 1-10 shot throwing out the anchor after a dawdling pace compared to the ark derby...maybe you should increase it to 33.3%????? thats how i make my money betting horses that will pay the same to show as they do to win...when they are 1-10.....lol...gee, i better bet him to win i'll get 2.20 instead of 2.10 to show.........people are billliant and i'm always there to cash on their brilliance. i heard it on good authority that uncle mo ran faster than blame and zenyatta at churchill too.....lol....

I've really tried to be tolerant of your blinkers induced narrow field of vision, but man, you are a dolt.

Perhaps, but his writing style is so aesthetically pleasing!

What does the fact that you and others basically call Uncle Mo the horse to beat solely off his 2 yo form make you?

Hopefully, nothing more serious than just being a Mo-tard.

What does pretty much make my living doing this mean? The few opinions you have given before races have been dreadful. I think if you actually took a few seconds and tried to understand what DrugS is saying, it might make more sense. Or maybe someone could read it to you and explain it. He's not saying he is betting Uncle Mo, or would want to right now. He's just talking about odds.

Also, does ignoring all questions or responses that make you look foolish mean they don't exist? You're not the only one that does this, but you're one of the best.

I caught that too, but thought it better to not ask such foolish questions.

25/1 is a 4% chance of winning.

24/1 is 4%.
