I've decided to stay away from those for now... probably cause of my stellar early picks in the past.
Who were some of yours..... you know, who were you reeeeeally wrong about?
I'll start. I had futures on such illustrious runners as Itsallaboutthechase  , Really Indian, and Flashy Bull (hey, at least he went on to win something). 
The Wood..... flashbacks of looking for Pavo and Deputy Glitters. Camera didn't pan that far back either time, I'm sorry to say.
Last year it was all about Great Hunter and, closer to the Derby, Zanjero.
Aaaah well.
Who wants to go next? |
saarland. he ended my infatuation with late closer's. it turns out the jock sends the horse close to the finish line regardless if it's a 6f or 12f race. so passing all those tired horses late but not winning keeps happening even as the distance increases.
read the footnotes. one good race in january apparently doesn't make you a great overlay in the derby.
