With the 2012 Kentucky Derby afternoon odds we were finally seeing a few dramatic line moves at Bookmaker.eu, including Gemologist dropping from 6/1 to +450.

The betting was brisk throughout the morning and afternoon hours this Derby Day. 

Weather radar indicated the chance of more rain before race time was highly unlikely. 

Other line moves included Bodemeister now at +375, but still paying close enough to $40 on a $10 bet.

Union Rags was now at +350.

A lot of bets were starting to roll in on El Padrino this afternoon, causing his price to be slashed from 20/1 to 11/1.

Take Charge Indy was now at +750.

Hansen was slashed in half to 5/1.
