Kentucky Derby 2014 Saturday Morning Lines – Current Odds

Kentucky Derby 2014 morning lines – the current odds for early Saturday – at BetDSI.com appear below.  Remember, BetDSI.com is offering 7% rebates on losses and up to $2500 in FREE CASH. *Note changes in post positions from 1-10 since Wednesday’s draw due to two scratches.

Vicar’s in Trouble had been coming in at 25-1, was now listed at 31-1 at BetDSI.com. This was one of the better prices on the Net. 4% of the betting public was backing this entry.

Harry’s Holiday is 61-1, was 66-1.

Uncle Sigh was 35-1, now 41-1.

Danza had been listed at 8-1.  This Todd Pletcher entry was now coming in at 10-1 and seeing 8% of the overall action at BetDSI.com.

California Chrome odds have gotten only slightly longer though we have seen very little movement this week.  He had been listed at +225 but was now at +245.  Still the favorite to win, California Chrome was seeing 10% of the overall action.

Samraat was now listed at 12-1 odds, slashed from 18-1 earlier.

We Miss Artie was at around 40-1, now was at 52-1.  Not a horse expected to take well to the dirt but surprisingly he was seeing close to 7% of the betting action at BetDSI.com, perhaps due to his long shot odds.

The Saturday morning line on General A Rod was 26-1.  He had been at 18-1.

Vinceremos is the one long shot we at Gambling911.com suggest could actually have a shot here, especially now that he’s in the coveted 10 spot.  He’s now at 43-1 odds compared to 50-1 yesterday.  4% of the public were on this horse at BetDSI.com.

Wildcat Red was seeing odds of 23-1, made longer from 16-1 yesterday.

Dance With Fate had odds of 26-1, had been 22-1.

Chitu was 28-1, now had odds of 31-1.

Medal Count was at 25-1 odds and was now coming in at 23-1 for a nominal change.

Tapiture had odds of 18-1 yesterday but was now at 12-1.  We could see single digits prior to race time with this trend.  3% of those betting the race were backing this entry. 

The morning line for Intense Holiday, a horse that has the ability to close, was now 8-1.  This was one of Saturday morning’s biggest reductions in a line, down from 14-1 and now in single digits.  Just shy of 5% of the betting public was backing this horse.

Commanding Curve had odds of 40-1 early and was now down to 31-1.

Candy Boy had gone from 25-1 to a Saturday morning line of 21-1.

Ride On Curlin had seen odds of 20-1 but was now at 18-1 on the morning line.

Wicked Strong was seeing the second heaviest action at 9% and had a Friday price of 10-1.  The number here has not changed overnight but Gambling911.com is strongly suggesting locking in the 10-1 line now before it does change due to the current action.
