Monba?

He will be the single worst play in the entire race as the winner of the Blue Grass almost always is.

So you are saying I should bet the horse that I just said would be the single worst play in the entire Derby cause there is a local owner?

I'm not the experienced horse player all of you are, but it seems to be that this crop of three-year olds are a bit unpredictable no? With no one dominating horse emerging, this derby looks more wide open than most previous iterations so I would think it might behoove a bettor to be a bit more open minded about those previous sacrosanct derby qualifiers...could Monba lose the derby? absolutely...and he could lose big too...but I think I could say that about a lot of these horses....this just makes it more fun to me.

You are right that anything can happen in this Derby. The problem though is Monba is now assured of being overbet relative to his miniscule chances so is a bad play.
