McCraken will not take much money off that last race, and he has no fast races, and Tampa Bay is not going to impress anyone.

Gunnevera may take a little money, maybe he gets down to 15/1 along with Gormley.

Gormley should be no lower than 50:1. I'm hard pressed to find a worse horse in the race.

Gormley 15-1 fresh off that 88 beyer? Wouldn't take 40-1.

Am i missing something with IWC that is making people say 12 or 15-1? I dont love him but he had 2 big wins that are faster then anything anyone else has run this year. I see 8-1 possibly lower if he's working big time. Remember the Animal Kingdom buzz week of?

There is no way in Heck that IWC is as high as 12/1.

Yeah, I agree. He kind of feels like 8-1 to me.

Who is getting money before him? Classic Empire and Always Dreaming seem like it to me.

Those are the two favorites for sure. I suppose their might be some unreasonable McCracken backers.

That was my point on Gormly, as a predictor of the publics betting habits...

i agree with andy but wanted it to be clear I was acting as a morning line maker not my line.

Only two horses in this years field are Gr. 1 winners at 2 & 3.
Classic Empire/Gormley.
Thunder Snow made it close,but the UAE Derby is a Gr. 2.
In terms of Gormley,you'd have to think that a muddy track would suit him well(Gr. 3 skate in the soup).
