Well, frick. Pletcher is nothing if not consistant. Wonder if he's got a shoe they are worried about?


dammit pletcher. hate this crap so close to the derby.
As for as Line, i'm not touching that one.
I see Golden, Oxbow, and Will take Charge leading the pack and maybe golden being the only one who might finish in the top 4 out of that group

Toss wtc if it's sloppy

Also, giant finish (3rd in the spiral) just jumped fear the kitten and will enter.

Carving has been mentioned but I doubt Baffert sends him.

After watching all the preps, before pouring over the form and PP being pulled....I am leaning Normandy, Overanylize, Veranzano and Mylute in exotic boxes

the point system is a joke

churchill pushing horses to the big tracks and their preps. and then the pansy antics toward Hawthorne and Illinois Derby seals the deal, CD is becoming a joke and will ruin the Derby soon enough.

Go watch the LA Derby, look at the horrible trip by Lescano on Normandy, and after all of that, he still had run.

Because of stupid points, it kept speed out, so you basically have 1 speed horse, some stalkers and deep closers. Which can make it a super boat race.

That was the risen star.

But I agree. Churchill is acting like a teenage girl.

Just saw TVG is running a double your odds promo for the Oaks and Derby. Have to place a win bet on tvg mobile site and they will double the win odds if your horse wins by 4 lengths or more. Details on the site.

Kinda waiting for post draw. In a 20 horse race I do a 5 horse exacta box. Traffic has so much to do with it.

You?

Wow. A sticky for a pony thread

I heard that tony dutrow isn't even coming down to saddle giant finish. Owners just decided to throw him in.

Are you making fun of me like everyone else?

He's my crazy retarded longshot play. Love how full of energy he is and he loves churchill. Has excuses for both Florida races. HUGE stride. Moves like a turf horse. I'd like to see him run on it one day.

My husband, who is in the business, thinks I'm crazy. I hope the horse runs big and makes me look like a genius.

Btw, on the bloodhorse news minute, they say there are rumors of a possible ligament issue for revolutionary, and that's why he just jogged yesterday. galloped ok today, though.
