2/18-20 (CD): Kentucky Derby Future Wager (Pool 1)

[HaloWishingwell]

I took a small shot with Clubhouse Ride(127-1) to win and exacta bets with the major contenders. My major bet is on Stay Thirsty(40-1) to win and exacta bets with the major contenders back and forth

I couldn't resist putting $20 on Brethren, even if his odds are probably too low. I like his running style and he has a win at CD. If he continues to progress, he will be lower than that on Derby Day. It's a shot I realize but kinda fun to have something to follow.

Funny how every year this crap of injury news comes out on Monday right after the betting future is over.

I like Stay Thirsty too. I put a small win bet on him, Astrology. and To Honor and Serve.

Obviously this is an important week. Pletcher apparently says that he is not totally cranked.

He doesn't have to win but I'd like to see him to run well. I also like him running in a 9 horse field (if they all go) rather than a small field. He showed some fighting spirit and grit last year. I like that in a Derby horse.

StayDirty is now off my derby watch list.
