A $30,000 wager on the mutuel field – all 3-year-olds other than the 23 assigned to the pool – by an unidentified patron enlivened the early minutes of the first of four days of betting in Pool 1 of Churchill Downs' 2004 Kentucky Derby Future Wager. The large wager was placed within the opening 15 minutes of betting on the four-day pool. Odds on the mutuel field tumbled to 1-9 when the wager was reflected on the odds board, while the prices on the pool's 23 individual horses instantly soared to 99-1. By the end of the first day's wagering, the field was down to 1-5. Master David, winner of last weekend's Sham Stakes at Santa Anita, was – at 15-1 – the lowest price among individual entries. Others who received action were Lion Heart (19-1), Eurosilver (30-1), and juvenile champion Action This Day and Tapit (both 40-1). A total of $96,706 was registered in the pool as of about 10 p.m. EST.Real Time Future Wager OddsAction was slow on the first day of Kentucky Oaks Future Wager, with just $4,930 bet.
