Denis of Cork passing Rebel; Wood next
Carroll will give him just one more start in the Wood before the Derby..

Not a good sign. Looks like it opens the door for Face the Cat.
At least it makes the Wood more interesting. |

So if he doesn't run at least third in the Wood, and possibly second, he will have deficient earnings to make the Derby?
They may need to split the Lexington this year. A lot of guys playing the conservative route may become real risk takers on April 19th.

I've watched Carroll's horses and his insistence on having Larry Melancon ride them and am not convinced he can compete at the highest level. |

What about Tagg? He was Whitely's exercise rider at one time in his life...

Hes a very nice guy but he cannot compete at the top level. You are exactly right Pillow. His horses constantly underachieve.

David Carroll has been training 15 years and has been a consistant 15% winner. He's won stakes when he's had opportunities with good horses. Have to say I'm a bit mystified by animosity directed towards him.

I was under the impression that the Southwest was ungraded ( I also thought that was ridiculous ). If it was Graded then I definitely stand corrected.

And really Carroll should have a consistant 15% clip with the stock he has. It's getting that stock to the next level that's been a problem. And with thorograph calling the shots that explains alot. |

I believe Mike Ryan is still managing Warren's racing stable so that may have been pointed out by him.
