It appears things never change, All 3yr olds bet down to 5/2

I don't think it would be going out on too much of a limb to say that your Kentucky Derby 133 winner is on this list. I have no idea why folks would bet the all other 3YO's line.

We need a (who stay's healthy list) too
;)

Congrats to all the Dreaming of Anna backers. If you thought 15-1 was good you must be beside yourself with 53-1... i like her chances after this weeks performance, huh:eek:

-bt-

If the odds were better, I would. But not at 5/2.

Only action I got in on was Forefathers and Liquidity, but again just for fun as we are twelve weeks out. Think 44-1 and 33-1 are fair prices on both, especially Liquidity as I put him on my short list of contenders right now

Yeah, Dreaming of Anna should really be pointed for races with the boys...

Slot, I think she was a really poor winner of a watered down group of juvy fillies last year. Got the perfect trip and she isn't that fast to begin with. Long season for her in store.

Here are some reasons for you:

1. On average, about half the Derby field will be made up of horses not on that list.

2. Summer Doldrums is not on that list

3. More than 400 other Derby nominees are not on that list. Isn't it possible, dare I say likely, that a few of them will show some Derby-worthy talent in the next few weeks? It costs $600 to nominate a horse for the Derby; therefore many of these owners must be at least ready to go forward if their horse jumps up and shines.

4. In the 8 previous renditions of Pool 1 of the Future Wager, the Derby winner was not on the list 3 times. I don't see how this year's list is more impressive than each of those other years.


If the odds were worse, I still would have. Down to maybe 9-5. At 5-2, I feel like I've been given a gift. I doubt I'll make a better horse bet this year.

I bet the field one time and that was War Emblem's year and I got 2.8-1 which was fair b/c the list that year was poor and I knew it. In fact, I think 4 out of the first 5 finishers were in the field that year. Something like that....Mind you they have become better at picking the horses for this thing. The field hasn't won in 3 years.

We all know that the key is getting the gate. With that being the key, will these future odds be better than you can get on derby day? I was sold on EZ Warior early this week but the sore feet anounced realy made me back up. . The one 3yr old that realy looked good this week-end was the fillie of Team Pletcher Tabor, Rags to Ritches. She looked like she could replace ther CQ as there darling. Dont think they will consider going against the boys but she did step up in the Oaks division.

i agree with slotdirt, but i will go a step further i'd say im 100 percent sure the derby winner comes off this list.

Lawrence the Roman won't make the derby, has no heart
;)

Well, in that case, I definitely change my mind.

It's must be nice to know things 100%.

Considering that 23% of the money in the Future Wager pool was bet on "All others", you could have bet on every listed horse and guaranteed yourself a nice profit. In other words, the money on "All others" more than offset the 16% takeout. You should have borrowed all the money you could so that you could have had your sure 7% profit in 3 months. That's what I would have done if I was 100% sure of making 7% on my money in 3 months.

--Dunbar

I can't believe I missed out on taking 12-1 on Circular Quay. Next thing I'll find out I could have gotten something around 35-1 on Lawrence the Roman.

PT Barnum.....right again!

As much as I wanted to bet Any Given Saturday......there wasn't enough value in taking 14/1 odds on him, for a race 12 weeks in the future, that will have a 17-to-20 horse field, when he has yet to even make his 3yo debut.

Of his three Derby preps---two will come at low-profile Tampa Bay Downs, and the other is supposed to come in the Blue Grass Stakes---over an artifical surface. His win over KEE's polytrack last fall was overrated...and not even close to being as good as his race at Churchill was.

that is all good... but when you look at horses like ravel and no biz, they are 2 good races each away from being 5-1 or lower , and there is nothing at all to suggest they wont improve, and thats just 2 of the many on the list. if no biz wins out going up to the derby, which ALOT of ppl belive he will do , your looking at no better then 5-2, so how is there no value in 8-1

dunbar... i also would like to say if you think i am wrong in making the statement that i made, then im sure you would be intrested in making a friendly wager, i will take all the horses on the list, i will give you everyone else... and instead of the chalkey odds you would get betting the field, i will give you 6-1. if intrested repond

You need to stop the pissing contest wagers on here...If you are staying, can you please add something to the place, not drivel. Thanks.

lol your a funny man, im getting attacked bye multiple ppl for my comment earlier, then i backed it up, but im the one who needs to stop the pissing contest? i did nothing wrong i made a statement which i feel strongly about , 2 ppl gave there opinions, and i offered a wager, is there a problem ?

If Dunbar doesn't take the bet I will.

I'll take 4-1.

I will even let you decide if you want to use your attorney's escrow account or mine.

PM me your info.

Let's get this going.

I assume you'd want me to wager at least $1000 to make it worth your while.

If I don't hear from you I'll just assume you're a young kid who should be studying harder than he is as opposed to a true gambler who can truly play with the big kids.

sent to stud.. yes i want the bet, and yes i am a young kid, but what does that have to do with anything ? i can cover the bet, you pick the ammount, and well i guess its 4-1, because you said that.

also we dont have to use any account i have the money now to cover it, and i will have it in may, and also there are tons of ppl on here seeing this, thats binding.

HAHAHAHA!!!

like, my word is my bond man.

This could be the start of something lovely....

The worlds first horse racing message board/betting exchange.

Just what we all need!

I'll bet $1000 that Sent2Stud's word is his bond......and another $100,000 the other guy's isn't.

Any takers?

black you need to get off my back, i have done nothing to you...
if he wants the bet for 1000 i have the 4000 to cover it, what is the problem ?

Binding? Says who?

90% of the people here don't give a sh1t and the other 10% can't remember what they had for lunch today.

uhh, isn't it obvious? if you have the money then why not put it in an escrow account? Your hesitancy gives you away as not being serious and most likely not having the money to cover the wager.

ok ok
we will put it in your account

i actually fall into both categories, maybe its cause i'm special!:)

Can we be in both categories?

Only the truly enlightened may achieve that position. Certain exceptions made for advanced Alzheimer's patients.

Sadly I'm not in the first category and thankfully not in the second.

I had some pasta today for lunch. FYI.

ok, I've got some of my best people working on it.

Just out of curiosity, how the hell have you managed as a 21 year old to have $4000 to gamble on a horse race?

No one calls my friend a "cox sucking trash bucket" and doesn't get an asskicking for it.

PG,

Here's the deal. My parents just signed me up for a visa platinum credit card and i have been checking into airfare rates to and from West Covina California. (where I live) If you are willing to make the trip here to face me, bare knuckle to bare knuckle, behind the elementry school playground, well i'm willing to foot the bill for it.

It's a small price to pay to have my foot up your ass. I only have a $200 line of credit so you have to stay within that. I have been lifting like a mofo and this has been my routine:

Monday - Chest/Triceps
Tuesday - Legs
Wednesday - off
Thursday - Shoulders
Friday - Back/Biceps
Saturday - off
Sunday - off

Chest
Flat Bench Press 4 sets
Incline Hammer Strength Machine 2 sets
Dumbell Flyes 2 sets

Back
Deadlift 3 sets
Lat Pull down 3 sets
Seated Cable Row 2 sets

Biceps
Standing Barbell Curls 3 sets
Preacher Curls (with dumbells) 1 set

Triceps
Tricep Press down 2 sets
Dips (weighted) 2 sets

Legs
Squats 4 sets
Leg Extension 2 sets
Leg Curl 2 sets
Seated/Standing Calve Raises 5 sets total (2 or 3 sets each way)

Shoulders
Seated Military Press (with dumbells) 4 sets
Lateral Raises 3 sets
Shrugs 3 sets

Make your time sissy boy.

LMAO

I hope you are warming up with some rotator cuff exercises and throw in some drop sets now and again and you'll be a tremendous machine come speedo season. For your extensions change up now and again with some "9's" really develops the cut.

Just reading this post wore my ass out. :eek:
