Henny Hughes/ Berendini Parlay?
 
What odds do you think we can get on both of them, is 3/2 too much to ask on Henny?

I am thinking 3/2 on Henny and Even on Bern, I HOPE this is the case because I will be turning $200 in $1k then

I would bet henny ends up more like 1/5 depending on who else goes.

I don't know about that, 2Muchbling, Songster, High Finance are all nominated. If Bling and Songster go, HH is easy even money just on the fact of Baffert action and Songster will take action because he was "short" last time and people will try and make up for it

Maybe it was just wishful thinking

I read somewhere that TMB would stay in cali until november--I wish I could remember where.
songster I a really nice colt and I agree that he may have been short last out but the general betting public will only see that he was a beaten favorite...meanwhile Henny is a monster (I'm very biased here i admit it) who has never been off the board. And he beat TMB last year running second to first sam in the hopeful (I think it was the hopeful) anyway I think he will get hammered on the day.

I cant see Henny being any higher than 3/5. This horse ruined me last Travers Day. Bernardini will probably be 3/5 as well. Even with the race Bluegrass Cat put in....
1) It was in NJ, not at Saratoga. 2)Everybody remembers Bernardini's romp in the Jim Dandy at Saratoga. 3) Hes a triple crown race winner. 4) Cat ran 2nd in the big one but it was a distant 2nd and not many will remember nor care.

Scavs- Not at all a bad parlay if you could get 3/2 and even money but I think your wishfully thinking.

3/5 and 3/5 makes your $200 parlay $512.

Scav 08-16-2006 02:01 PM

$512 is nice but it isn't $1k, all depended on Henny, will have to wait until race, 3/2 and I take my chance that Bern is even money, if Henny is lower then that, no love for the parlay...

Nostradamus 08-16-2006 03:25 PM

I think you are looking at 2/5 and 2/5.

Scav 08-16-2006 03:34 PM

Bern was 1/2 in a race with NO ONE in it, and now you get Bluegrass Cat and Strong Contender......no way Bern is 2/5, not a chance in hell

I'll give you 3/5 on Henny. Minimum $10k wager.

Scav 08-16-2006 03:40 PM

funny guy Bruce is

You might have already won the Grossman starting wager that game, he might be pulled by then if he plays the way he played last Friday...

He will be a shorter price than he was in the Jim Dandy. Bluegrass Cat and Strong Contender are garbage and no real money will be bet on them. Bernardini might even be bet down to 1-5.

We will see, if he doesn't play well this Friday, they are going to boo him out of the starting job

Who's next? Our backup is Joey H. We're in trouble if Culpepper goes down.

The golden child Brian Greise, he was 6-7 for 150 yrds first game...

If there is a DD, why not just look at the prices for that and make a decision then? Aren't they back to back races?

I hope so but I doubt it, probably put a turf race before the Travers

I don't know if I'd call either of them garbage, but BGC doesn't seem like he's as well-known to the general public, and SC hasn't really proven that he can run with either BGC or Bernardini. I think Bernardini will be even-money at the highest.

Beware of betting the farm on Henny Hughes.

If ever there were a candidate for a bounce ... or an injury ... he's the boy.

One start does not a season make.

ateamstupid 08-16-2006 10:17 PM

'dini will be 3/5.. as for Henny, I think he'll be higher, just because of the competitive nature of that race, but probably not much higher, considering the amount of hype he's gotten off that Monmouth race.. 3/2 might not be out of the question if Bling takes cash..

If 'dini is somehow even money, I'll take out a loan to bet that **** on him.
