Ever since that 7f win in the San Vincente I've obsessed over this horse and would have made a gigantic bet on him if he shipped for the Gotham like first planned.
I love speed going from syn-to-dirt ... but the value isn't going to be there like it would if he ran a poor result.

Don't be too hasty in dismissing any chance of getting value on Sidney's Candy in the Derby. Four weeks from now, many folks will still be discussing LAL's trip in the Santa Anita Derby, not the win by Sidney's Candy. If Noble's Promise wins the Arkansas Derby, even more folks are going to jump on the LAL bandwagon. Eskendereya will the Derby favorite, with LAL a close second. Sidney's Candy might end up the fifth choice behind Ice Box and Noble's Promise. His odds will be even higher if Dublin runs well in the Arkansas Derby and DWL gets his horse for the Derby. Sadler will be forgotten among DLW, TAP, Zito, and Baffert.
