Which of the "contenders" are you tossing?
 
Of the Derby horses that are contenders less than 10-1 on the morning line...which two will you not be using in any of your exotic plays?
For me it's - NoBiz Like Shobiz & Curlin

Curlin .... half this field will start making their moves near the mile mark...

Curlin, Hard Spun, and Scat will probably be on or near the lead as we approach the 1/8 pole... Curlin hasn't faced that before and will fold and be passed by the deep closers... see 7th place or worse for the m/l fav...

Curlin, If he doesn't win he won't be in the super. If he wins Oh well, I lose, there will be more races on Sunday.

Curlin and Hard Spun...somewhere somebody reads this and runs to the exacta window.

I'm having a hard time liking HARD SPUN.

slotdirt 05-03-2007 07:49 AM

Nobiz like Shobiz.

phystech 05-03-2007 09:32 AM

I'm throwin' Scat Daddy out. News of the bar shoes did it for me.....

dellinger63 05-03-2007 10:43 AM

Curlin, Scat Daddy and Hard Spun. Probably No Biz as well unless he comes out as focused as Al Sharpton in a cash grab machine.

Curlin- has to many obstacles to overcome and hasnt faced this type of animal before..(could be moving forward though, but I will bet against it)

Scat Daddy- hasnt really improved.. Seems to run identical races every time out, and wont cut it here.(gotta respect Prado's choice)

NoBiz Like ShoBiz- see Scat Daddy, the extra furllong will be his undoing..Would be tough to hold off charging horses for another panel.

Any Given Saturday- would love to see it happen, although his draw and the fact that Hammerhead Hank likes him are major hurdles. (Johnny V aint no dummy)

I think this is the best way to handle this horse. Good point.
