I said they're were 19 bet againsts in the Derby ... of which none would get within six lengths of a pair of subsequent scratchers.
Musket Man and POTN were the most honest grinding horses in the race .. but both are slowpokes .. they became my 3rd and 4th choices after scratches because they seemed logical to plug up for a piece and fire. While others might be hit or miss.
It was a bad Derby without IRW, QR, The Pamp, and OF.
The winner remains impossible.
