Default ML Classic Odds
Gonna be real interesting to see how the board plays out if all the pieces come together for this field. Zenyatta, Quality Road, Blame, Haynesfield, Lookin At Lucky, Fly Down, Richard's Kid, Rachel Al...nevermind, not yet sure of any others pointing but I know more will show. Whats your morning line look like?

Can't see Haynesfield be a lower price than QR

Just don't think he can win this race. It seems to be set up for the top three. Of course I have been wrong before.

If you're doing a value line... I put Quality Road at 20-1. I think it'll be really, really tough for him... plus I thought his Woodward looked bad. Morning line though... QR should go lower than Haynesfield I think.

That's fair that you feel he's not going to win the race. I just don't think he's going to be anywhere near 12-1. I think he will be less than both Haynesfield and Luckin at Lucky.
But then again, I have been wrong many times as well.

Your probably right. My odds were more based on my feelings then what the public will say.

Lookin At Lucky and Zenyatta were co-favorites on some of the European sites I was looking at yesterday. I think he has to be (and should be) second choice. I've never really liked him, but I'd say right now he's the race's most likely winner just because he's the most consistent besides the overrated one.

The race appears to set up nice for LOL and Zenyatta. Should be a good pace

Why does it set up nice? Where is the speed? Haynesfield showed he can go 1.13 and change, and QR figures to pull a cozy press trip of the NY Bred. Where is the other speed?

Redding Collery - especially if Anna Rosie is going to ride.

If the Japanese horse Espoir City comes over he has speed.

Here's a bad video of the JC Dirt: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HY4zDP_T4oQ

I have been thinking about the Classic speed for a few days now, even talked to Phil about it. As a QR fan, I love Haynesfield.

I have zero memory so excuse me. Has a foreign horse ever won a DIRT Breeders cup race?

Have any of them been right off the boat without a US prep?
