2)Court Vision-I was at CD when he won the Iriquis and was impressed with the fact that you could actually see the horse speed up coming down the stretch he wasn't just passing tired horses he was running by them. I know remsen came back low but once again love the breeding and his spin at CD. Would like to get 20/1 on him. currently 13-1...tremendous upside, won on both dirt surfaces
3)Cowboy Cal-love his races on T and i know its a risk but it appears to me that the horse does have talent. Would need at least 40-1 currently 29-1...underlay & looks like sticking to turf
4)Dennis of Cork- the mystery horse as far as i see it. only run 2x but he did stretch out in the slop and won ok. Not a dominant wet track pedigree i dont think so maybe even more impressive?Would need 40-1 currently 54-1...need to see step up in stakes
5)Majestic Warrior- the forgotten horse after the champagne dont knwo what went wrong there and the fact that it was his 1st stretch out bothers me but love the breeding and think can get a decent number. Need 25-1 currently 24-1...didn't like his last as a 2yr. wait on this one
6)Monba- My fav so far. i love the way he was eating into the lead in Calif and the fractions were actually speeding up no slowing down so he made up that much ground into those quick fractions. Bred to run forever. Need 20-1 currently 30-1...love this one too, may be the best of bunch
7)Yankee Bravo- TOTAL STAB HERE just based on the 2 races that i have seen love the excelleration into the lane.Bred ok for distance. Need 50-1 currently 42-1...seen worst longshots
8)Zhumor- his races at a distance on fast ground dont embarrass him at all and the breeding is there to get the distance worry about him being too close to pace but we will see. Need 30-1 currently 87-1...you get your price here!
Well that is what i have come up with. Are the odds that i need too high? i worry that some horses are just going to get hammerred and i just cant take a horse even Monba at 15-1 its just too far out from the big dance.
Constructive criticism of the picks and odds placement are fine but if i mispelled something or you have some smart ass comment i can do without that. Im looking for some real insight here. thanks.

Odds at 11pm Thursday.....I've got no problem putting a buck or two on anything with upside at 20-1 or better.
No need to go crazy in round #1
