Strange as it seems, I think he wins the Arkansas Derby if Curlin wasn't in there. I think that if Curlin wasn't there and the rider didn't have to make his move when he did to keep up with Curlin, he could have waited just a bit longer and the result could have been a lot different. I don't expect FFC to win the Preakness but it wouldn't be a total shock to me either. I give him about a 50% chance to hit the tri.

Thunder Gulch? All he won prior to the Derby was the Remsen, Fountain of Youth, Florida Derby, and was 2nd in the Hollywood Futurity and Cowdin.
FFC is no Thunder Gulch.
