Kentucky Derby - Historical Morning Lines

[Secretariat]

I was wondering if anyone has a link to historical morning lines for the Kentucky Derby. I was trying to get 1997 Silver Charm and 1998 Real Quiet in particular, but was surprised at how difficult it is to find online. Bris doesn't store ML in their past performances back that far. But it's cetainly a piece of historical information that should be more readily available for the bigger races. Anyone know of a site this is stored at?

In 1996, the Kentucky Derby went online and launched www.kentuckyderby.com

It would be very interesting to compile a list and post it ot a website.

If we all dug up enough of them we could add it to wikpedia ???

Thanks Douglas. This is great info. I wonder if Cindy Pierson-Dulay might have ml odds for at least horses in the rest of the 90's and 80's.

May be worth asking
