Or in neater form courtesy of Daily Racing Form. Who am I to argue with a guy who's been making the line on this race for 30 years? Actually, there's little to argue with; I think he's absolutely right on, at least with those up to 12-1. I think Greeley's Galaxy is a little low; and Wilko a bit high. I don't like Wilko, but my sense is he's going to get more action than 20-1. I think Coin Silver is extremely low at 20-1; and there's no real difference between the 30-1s and 50-1s, they seem interchangeable to me. I think it's a great post for Bellamy Road as long as Bandini doesn't try to take a chunk out of him. Maybe he's the killer rabbit with the long pointy teeth.
