7. Teuflesberg, Robby Albarado, 122

WOW! That is a really salty field right there. Hard Spun tops several people's Derby Trail lists -- Izzie's Halo has run big. Teuflesburg is a proven performer, and Makeithapencaptain could still be any kind after the race at Hawthorne.

I'd take the 1 in here after seeing the kind of show he put on this Fall at Hawthorne.
