I think 11-1 or 12-1 has been the standard online the past couple of years. A few years ago I got 30-1, which was outrageously good.

I still like it if you can find 12-1 or so. Most years the Derby winner suddenly looks like a threat to win the whole thing, and the post-Derby odds on a TC drop dramatically. Just buy back the "No". This was a lot easier, though, when Pinnacle was around with it's low vig Yes/No.
