I'd have a field day in Vegas with these two lines.
Hey, check this out this prop i saw @ Bally's:
Will 20 horses start in the Derby?
Yes -130
No -110
I nearly fell over when i saw that. Obviously the potential monsoon tomorrow could affect that prop (Sadler mentioned there's a very slight possibility that Line of David could scratch), but -130 against a Derby scratch with less than 24 hours to post almost seemed like free money. So i went up to the window to check the price, and it was off the board. I askeda supervisor about it, and he called over to Caesars (or wherever) to find out why it was off, then he tells me it's because "They're protecting themselves against a late scratch". Say wha???
LOL what? Great answer there guys. They're pretty much aknowledging their error by ever releasing that prop. On a normal derby derby thats a good prop to take (we had 19 last year for that matter), let alone when they're calling for 80% chance of thunderstorms all day and the track still hasn't even fully recovered from the terrential rains all last week and early this week.
I played these last night:
ICE BOX -120 over DEVIL MAY CARE
SUPER SAVER -140 over JACKSON BEND
ICE BOX -135 over NOBLE`S PROMISE
SUPER SAVER -120 over DUBLIN
Super Saver over Super Saver?
:thumbdown: Noooooooooooooooo
After those props I sure hope you had an ice cold exacta box...nice calls.
Right there with you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
