Arlington Million Odds

The Arlington Million Odds for this weekends Group One Arlington Million betting race in Chicago has the former Ballydoyle trained Archipenko as favourite. Archipenko is now trained by Mike De Koch. Ballydoyle themselves will be represented by the impressive Eclipse winner, Mount Nelson. Aiden O'Brien, the Master at Ballydoyle will be hoping that Mount Nelson can secure him his 18th Group One of 2008 in this 25th running of the Arlington. Top jockey, Johnny Murtagh will travel with the team to ride the horse knowing victory will be one more step closer to the world record of 26, while the Ballydoyle record is 23. Connections feel that 10 furlongs is the ideal trip for Mount Nelson and if the ground is good then he will have a big chance.

The French send over Group One winner, Spirit Hope while the Americans themselves will be challenging with Group one winner, Einstein and the former Italian owned runner Sudan. However it is difficult not to believe that O'Brien knows that his horse can win this, he knows what it takes having won in 2005 with Powerscourt with Kieran Fallon on board. In fact Powerscourt had won the year before too, but was disqualified with Jamie Spencer in the saddle on that occasion. Odds are: 5/2 Archipenko, 11/4 Mount Nelson, 6/1 Einstein, 10/1 Stream Cat, 12/1 Cloudys Night, 12/1 Sudan, 14/1 Spirit One.
