I think it was Jude Feld who said they should give a horse 10 points just for being included in the future pools. If they're not going to expand the list, I like that idea.

I heard him say that on air, and I can't see any logic behind it. I think it's silly that they don't have a real future book pool with all Derby-nominated horses as a separate betting interest. Having the future book committee play a role in determining who gets in the Derby field because Churchill is unwilling to have a real future book wager only compounds the problem.
