The double & win pools are only $1.3 million & $428k, the latter representing a small fraction of what will be bet tomorrow. The foreign & offshore books have had Castle at 10-1 for awhile, so don't be surprised if his odds go down some as a result of bookmaker hedges. Of course,Castle's odds don't change the fact that he didn't train at CD & my experience is that their prices on foreign horses are usually ridiculously low. By the way, Saar is still available offshore at 9-1 & PD is 15-1.

The real shocker in the win pool is Lusty at 18-1, the same as the Ill Derby winner & lower than the Ark Derby winner. I was looking to include him in the last slot of the super at what I thought would be close to 100-1.

You're right about TCL. She's a game performer & a game competitor & Mcpeek had her ready, despite what everyone was saying about how bad she looked & how she was pulling up after works,etc. Kind of makes you wonder if the same thing will be true of the Ohio bred anti-wiseguy horse tomorrow, doesn't it?
