Brother Derek's back.
 
Once again... Brother Derek is entered for tomorrow at Santa Anita's in the
7th. "Drugs" said he was'nt running because of a quater crack?? Anyone else hear that?

I would love to see him return to his past form, but I seriously doubt he will...

Why? He needed time away and a chance to grow up. If he has filled out any at all he could be a nice racer.

I'm almost positive he won't like the synthetic. Unfortunately for Brother Derek he's returning at a time when the BC is shamefully going to be run on synthetic.

If Peacock wants this horse to have a good year he should seriously consider moving him east for the summer.

I see that 7yo gelding graded stakes winner Gotaghostofachance is also entered here. Interesting race.

It's a wide open race. That's why I'm betting Augment if the m/l holds or goes higher.

Well, bummer... Seems like he had problems with quarter cracks before if I remember correctly. Been a year tho and I could be wrong. In any case, I hope he gets back on track soon.
