Buddy's Saint has excuses with the poor start and all. I think the winner Eskenderaya is a pretty good horse. He tracked a pretty decent pace and when he was asked to run he dusted this field. Don't be surprised to see a BSF of around 104.

By comparison, Jackson Bend may be very common looking but is honest as can be. Anyone note a parallel in this FOY of Eskenderaya-Jackson Bend to Big Brown-Smooth Air in the FL Derby 2 years ago? It's the first thing I thought of watching the 'Calder' horse chasing the Pletcher-Zayat winner home. |

Steve, what did you think of Fly Down today? I think Nick is pretty high on him as well - his maiden win was a key race. I know he had a speed duel up front to help his cause, but he did make a very quick move and he hadn't run in 3 months. He looks like his grandsire, Fly So Free. To be honest, I wouldn't rush this horse, but Derby Fever is in the air.......... |
bump..:rolleyes:

Nice call on this one Hooves.
The race completely fell apart up front. I know people say this every year, but these 3 year old colts look far from promising. |
I don't know, I thought Rule ran a pretty big race.
