As of this writing on Monday night the 12th.......we are 21-8 in the NBA Playoffs and have hit our last six 6-0 in a row. Despite a poor regular season, the playoffs have been good to me and my numbers are working well. I still like the Pistons or Celtics to win the title.
I bet against the Derby favorite BIG BROWN, because of the 20 post, speed inside, would be outside for most of the race, the jockey, only 3 races run and pressure of being the chalk on the first Saturday in May. Well, all Big Brown did was prove all those factors wrong and invalid and I must say to be 4-5 wide for the entire race and then draw off like that in the stretch is perhaps the most impressive race I have ever seen!
Either that or the competition is very very weak. I think it is a combination of both. But, reguardless, Big Brown if he remains healthy, should be the next Triple Crown winner in 30 years.....and it will be very difficult to make money betting on the remaining Triple Crown races.
I have seen -450 to win the Preakness and +125 to win the Triple Crown and that may be the best odds left on this amazing colt.
