I picked Derma Sotogake in your poll. It just seems like he has a lot of history to overcome and even though it’s be really cool to see Mind Your Biscuits be the sire of a Derby winner I don’t see it.
My top pick is probably going to be Two Phil’s. I bet him in two separate future bets so I can just root him in the race.
My crazy idea for the exacta and triple is Sun Thunder. I think his form is dirtied up a bit by circumstances beyond his control. He ran very well in the Risen Star. Was behind the slow pace in the La. Derby and got going too late. Florent gave him a no shot ride last time. He wasn’t beating the top two anyway but he should have been third. He’s shown that on his best day he’s competitive here and at what should be a huge price I’m going to try and get him somewhere in there.
