TVG offering guaranteed 4/1 on California Chrome

Only if you bet at a certain time tomorrow.

This didn't work out so well for bettors when they did something similar for Game On Dude in the San Antonio. Seems strange. Then again, maybe TVG will not lose much since they're only offering this for a one hour period?

4/1 seems completely fair. With the scratches over the past month or so this horse seems like a standout and his chances of winning are higher than that.

$25 max, I'll toss that on it and it will be my only win bet on Cali Chrome most likely. Not bad value as he should go off at 5/2 or so.

I would not bet him at 10-1, but I guess I can see why you would take 4-1 when he will be around 5-2 at post time. I think 5-2 and 4-1 are underlays on this horse.

100% serious. 6 or 8-1 would be fair. Why would I want this horse at 4-1 or 5-2?

Who you looking at? I'm going to have Crome in exactas cause if he breaks well and takes to the track he will win. He is the best horse in the race. I am interested in intense holiday tapiture and candy boy. Intense holiday reminds me of monarchos setup, candy boy needed last race and expect him to run good here and I'm throwing out tapiture a last race. They all need to improve to beat chrome and need a nice hot pace which shouldn't be a problem. Of course I may change my mind by morning.
