Del Mar Handicap 2012 Odds: Interaction Pays 3-1 Odds

The Del Mar Handicap 2012 odds have Interaction as the 3-1 favorite, Dhaamer at 7/2 and Casino Host at 4/1 for Saturday’s race.  All odds were courtesy of Sportsbook.com, which was offering up to 8 percent on losses back. 

The Del Mar Handicap is a Grade II race run 1⅜ miles on grass.  This year’s race features a $250,000 purse. 

Dhaamer was expected to like the short distance of the Del Mar, providing him with a slight edge.

“I think the mile and three-eighths is better than a mile and a half,” said Phil D’Amato, assistant to trainer Mike Mitchell, speaking to the Daily Racing Form. “At a mile and three-eighths, you might expect a little more pace to run at.”

Interaction is trained by Ron McAnally.  He previously won the most prestigious race in South America, the 2009 Group 1 Carlos Pellegrini in Argentina.
