Favorite and H-to-H wagering

[boston]

IWC will be the Big favorite if you look at hth wagering.

IWC -158 AD +122

IWC -140 CE +110

IWC -138 McC +104

IWC -180 Gunny +140

CRIS is taking 1k wagers  My belief is that this is the best indicator (real money) of the fav.  This guy is being bet so hard that he is also the wise guy horse.

Boston,

Seems like there is about zero chance that IWC is going to be a \"big favorite\".

He is a longshot to be any kind of favorite.  IF he is the favorite, which will be unlikely, it would be one of those 5-1 type favorites.

Offshore H to H is FAR from the best source of data regarding who will be favored.  And IWC hasn\'t been talked about by any \"wise guy\" that I am aware of.  McCracken seems to be the \"now\" horse from a wise guy perspective.

But we will see.

McCraken was heavily played in every KY Derby future pool, not sure you can call him the \"now\" horse.  Heck, he wound up 5.9-1 in the final pool.
