Tomorrow, Thursday, we\'re going to put up the first KD futures pool--Derby and Oaks. It will be a special and cost $25. Along with the 23 Derby and Oaks horses, we\'ll include some of the all other 3yos. Suggestions?

not sure how many sets you are going to sell after Jerry\'s rant against early Derby thought, but ...
Spin Master is getting all kinds of hype.
Lady Joanne should be in the Oaks set (won the big CD race in Nov).
One horse not mentioned but I would like to see included is Minefield.
Thanks for asking Alan.
A lightly raced colt, Sports Town is impressing in the mornings in NY.
Okay, I\'ve got a lot of Derby suggestions. How about the Oaks? I\'m going to run this off in about an hour.
Thanks for asking... wouldn\'t mind seeing these.

Alan is it too late to include the Lukas horse Pegasus Wind?
Nope. But that\'s it. Preparing the file now. It\'ll be up in a little while.
I think Pletcher has some terrific prospects.
Any Given Saturday is below the radar. He may even be a better prospect than Circular Quay, but CQ is a very good one too.
I don\'t trust Street Sense at a short price. Even if there wasn\'t a rail bias on BC day (I think there \"was\" a mild bias), he still drafted well off a fast pace and saved a lot of ground when he made his up the rail rally. No matter how you slice it, he got a perfect trip that day. Circular Quay lost a lot of ground and IMO was on the worst part of the track. At a minimum, those two are a lot closer than people think.
Michael-- I bet futures, as you know, and I\'ve done pretty well with them. But you you have to project out who they will be, not who they are, which means you have to get BIG prices this far out. A month from now the picture will start to come into focus, and always looks a lot different.
Does anyone know which racing site(s) is/are offering the Derby future? Youbet is not offering and Xpressbet is not offering to California residents.
I don\'t see it on the TVG site. Kentuckyderby.com says American Tab is handling the wager. Sounds like another case of horse racing shooting itself in the foot. I\'d like to see some press on this.
