Rogue Romance at 30-1 is interesting indeed

Rogue Romance's morning line is irrelevant - he runs on Saturday and betting doesn't close until around mid-day Sunday.

If he wins impressively - his price will come way down. If he runs a dud he'll take almost no money in the final 24 hours of the bet.

I find betting on Bodog at Fixed Odds just prior to a horses prep is the way to do it. Of course my 100-1 on Tapizar isn't looking so good. Think Repole will pay me off not to bet Uncle Moe?

I don't think it should be and it probably won't be.

I actually thought that with Mo being such a strong early favorite, the field might end up around 2-1, but that's probably too high.

I guess CD (or whoever) still hasn't been able to justify spending the cash to update the tote system to allow for more than 23 individual horses. I can't imagine it could be that hard.

It's never closed that low, Randall. I'm pretty sure that last year's 3-2 is the lowest ever.

No freaking way the field sets a new record low price for round 1.

This could very well be the time that the fave is an individual horse and not the field.
