It’s been 30 years since there has been a Triple Crown
winner in horse racing. Will Big Brown end the drought this Saturday? Many have
won two legs including several to win the first two, with Smarty Jones being
the latest.
The latest 2008 Belmont Stakes odds
have Big Brown as a 1/3 favorite to make horse racing lore. Make sure you check
Saturday morning for the official offshore and
morning line odds for the
Casino Drive is the most likely spoiler at 7/2. Every
other horse will qualify as a long shot. Denis of Cork is 10/1, while Tale of Ekati is 16/1.
Cy McCormick of the largest online betting syndicate in
the world MasterLockLine.com
says that Saturday won’t be a great day for sharp gamblers to exploit the
bookmakers, be they offshore,
or OTB.
“Most of our top horse racing handicappers think the
finish will be similar to the order the oddsmakers order,” wars Cy Mac.
However, NewBodog has some wacky propositions such as Will
Big Brown win the Belmont Stakes going wire to wire? Will Big Brown tie or
beat Secretariat’s record of a 31-length win in 1973?
Grandmaster sports
handicapper Joe Duffy of GodsTips says there is one prop bet that jumps out
big time. Will Big Brown race again
after the Belmont Stakes? No is -155, but Duffy says the odds
should be more like -500.
“If he wins the Triple Crown, he will be retired to stud.
Risking him by racing again would be financial suicide.”
The options are many for bettors. Will Big Brown’s winning
time in 2008 Belmont Stakes be faster than that of Affirmed –
Belmont Stakes exceed that of 120,139 in 2004 when Smarty Jones attempted to
win the Triple Crown?
