Title: overlay??
Post by: skitimber on November 25, 2018, 01:47:19 PM
Both Game Winner and his sire Candy Ride at 6-1 in the Ky Derby and sire future pools.  Clearly 6-1 could be almost 7-1, but with no other information, why bet on Game Winner when you can get same odds on the sire when you might get another runner or two?
Title: Now a definite overlay if odds on Twinspires correct.

Unless I\'m seeing a misprint, ended up at 5-1 on the horse and 7-1 on the sire; minimum $16 payout vs a maximum of $13.80 a deal certainly eliminates a lot if not all of takeout!

What about the rumor that Game Winner was being retired to stud and would not even race next year?  Snowflakes?

I’ve been waiting on that one as well.
