Wet or Sloppy Track for Derby?

The extended forecast for Louisville shows a 40% chance of rain. Which horses would benefit the most from an "off" track?

Soldat ran a hole in the wind on an off track and is bred to love it.

As usual, sloppy track. Amazing how often

Super Saver should move way up on an off track.

Mike Welsch had good things to say about him working in the slop. He also gave very favorable reports on Brilliant Speed and Archarcharch's works in the slop.
