Now I will also have plenty of backup tickets with the horses that figure but if I am to take a chance on any horse in the race to make a big score it would be this one. Im def not calling him a lock but a very nice value.

After watching a Replay of the TB Derby this morning I believe I need to recant something I said about the horse getting in some trouble. Although he did get out of the gate nicely and was in good position down the backside, going into the far turn he was in between horses, in which he loves to be for some reason getting dirt kicked in his face, Centeno had to stand straight up on the horse as he got into some traffic trouble. Once he stood up he lost about 3 lengths and about 4-5 horses passed him at that time. After he regrouped, he swung 5 wide into the lane and with a tremendous burst got up at the wire. Watching that replay just made me like him even more now. The race in the Ill. Derby just just showed me what this horse can do with a decent trip. This horse is all heart and loves to win, I like that recipie.
