I dont think i've EVER seen (esp in a 14 horse race) where only 2 horses are below 10-1 in the morning lines. 2/1, 5/2, and then a loooooong way down to 10-1. If you can get past the two favorites, i can see at least 2-3 other horses that will be less than 10-1 come post time. My Miss Lilly, Coach Rocks, and Rayya would be 3 of them, imo.

Has Casse given any indication where he is leaning with Awesome Slew? Distance aside, he has a much better chance of running down Always Dreaming than he does Imperial Hint

Default Oaks/Derby DD

I should know this - but do most ADWs show the Oaks/Derby probables as betting is going on Friday afternoon?

Do these exist or are we stuck with will-pays only after the Oaks is run?

What a great card. One quick question though. Why the allowance as race 9? Only sane reasoning I can come up with is to accommodate TV scheduling.

I’ve seen a lot of complaints of late (not necessarily on here) when major tracks go postward the same time or way too close together. I dont mind that so much. But what I really don’t get is when they stick an allowance race in the middle of a stakes rich card like this. Makes my head want to explode. Just my personal pet peeve.

Still a great card. Good luck to everyone.

I have the field to Justify in the Oaks/Derby DD (also had Mckinzie which is now dead) I forget the exact amount but when I made my bets the probables were well over $600 for both horses at $5. Justify is now $282.

She along with Chocolate Martini (nice pilot upgrade for her) and Kelly's Humor are the only 3 that can win for me. All pay the same so I'll be rooting for My Miss Lilly. Good luck!
