you think anyone would be interested? i know i am!

Yeah, it'd be fun. It just sucks because I'm going to have to be logical and pick one of them to be last. I guess we should wait until we get the final list of entries and post positions to do this, right?

oh definitely! i wouldn't run anything til derby week...i have never really got into the contest part of this board, so not sure if these things just get thrown in there out of thin air or what. but i wouldn't think anyone would get serious about any of this til that week.

I also think that the second choice, Street Sense will be underlaid at ~9/2.


I couldn't agree more! If he's that good, I tip my hat to him...but less than 8-1...Forget It !!!!!!

it's not Curlin's fault but he has beat nobody. I want to toss the Bluegrass because it won't mean anything when you compare dirt speed to synthetic against the wind paceless one big run to the wire etc.

Will Dominican have the same kick running a 1 1/4 as opposed to walking for the first mile and sprinting the last 1/8th

Interested!:D

Teuflesberg has already beaten most of the horses Curlin has!

SOREHOOF 04-18-2007 09:24 PM

Nice hat C-Gator!! He's my pick!!

SOREHOOF 04-18-2007 09:25 PM

T-Berg beats Curlin Head to head.

SOREHOOF 04-18-2007 09:27 PM

I feel like I'm talking to myself!

SOREHOOF 04-18-2007 09:32 PM

I just kicked SOREMUFF out of my house after 13 years, I'm gonna get drunk and go to bed. She sh*t on me, I'm p*ssed, and good luck to everyone on the Derby!

The only way T-berg beats Curlin is if Curlin breaks down or they switch the Derby to 6f.

SOREHOOF 04-18-2007 10:06 PM

We'll see! The more $$ bet on Curlin, the more everyone else makes on the real contenders!

I see Street Sense at 8-1 already. Contender.

Curlin .....BBBBBBBBBBBouncey.

JJP 04-18-2007 10:22 PM

If Curlin disappoints, IMO it won't be a bounce. It will be because he's facing tougher competition. Its not as if he hadn't run fast before the Ark Derby.
