Ya know, I hate to join in the never-ending Churchill bashing that goes on around here. But how friggen hard is it to get certain things right?

This pool will close, at best, minutes after the Florida Derby is run. It may even close before. Good God. Extend the bet until 7:00pm.

And the issue of why they can't seem to figure out a way to offer more than 23 interestes has been beaten to death here, but I think we should beat it a little more. This wager has been offered since at least 1999 I think. So this is like the 13th time it's been offered. Figuring out how to offer more than 23 horses cannot possibly be that difficult.

like the other guy said...."stop making sense". plus, why not close at 7:00PM NEXT sunday with ALL the probable starters in place(on the betting list).....then maybe i would bet a buck or two.........when they say "future"...they mean throw your money on the ground. the last pool should be better than this crap.

Comma to the Top has been removed from the roster of wagering interests for this week’s third and final pool of Churchill Downs’ Kentucky Derby Future Wager after trainer Peter Miller said that the horse will not be entered in the Kentucky Derby.
