Default Your Derby Longshot

Whats up guys?

I troll your boards all the time, just don't ever have the time to post at work all day, but I get geared up during Derby time. Im looking hard at Dominican as my derby key at a nice price. Love his running style and the grit he showed in the Bluegrass. Who do you have at a price next Saturday?

I'll be using Dominican on my tickets but at this point I think Hard Spun and Any Given Saturday have the best chance to win at decent prices. . .

Any Given Saturday and Hard Spun should both be over 10-1. I consider that a pretty nice price.

He could be the forgotten horse in the betting. I think he is still a lot better than what he has shown. I like Dominican as a longshot seem like he is getting stronger with every race.

I used to use horses that ran 3rd in the Bluegrass (Closing Argument- Invisible Ink or was he 3rd in the Fl Derby) as my longshot play. Since the switch to Poly I don't think you can still use them. I will use Zanjero at least once but not for the win.

Any Given Saturday was close to beating Street Sense and Dominican did beat Street Sense. So, Since Street Sense is my barometer.. I can't really toss those two

Great Hunter ran as bad as Teuflesberg so if you like one can you toss the other?

I won't know who I am going to play until the draw

Sam P and Zanjero. One will hit the board at greater than 25-1.

I'm actually glad he's on him. He had a couple of decent rides up on him.
