I tried to work it out so he'd be 16 but couldn't quite justify it with the sorry collection of horses behind him.

I'll post mine contingent upon the post position draw. I do think that has an impact, unless you just want my ranking of how the horses are at this point talent wise?

Doesn't matter if people want to wait for the post position draw. I think it is pretty overrated though as there is a likelihood that a horse will run into traffic problems in a 20 horse field regardless of which post position they draw. It is highly doubtful that my opinions will change based on the post positions.

1,2 (tie) Curlin, Street Sense
3 AGS
4 Nobiz
5 CQ

I think Curlin and SS are the most likely to win the race. I also think they will be among the worst bets to win.

You guys think Tiago is a better CLOSER option than CQ?

At 10 furlongs, yes. Don't like the fact that CQ is off the layoff and hasn't gone more than 8.5. I also think he has a knack for finding trouble which isn't going to be good in a 20 horse field. Even without those factors he wouldn't be higher than 5th on my list.

Not 100% sure about that. I personally saw the maiden breaker by CQ and he was flat rolling! The SA Derby for Tiago seemed like a real late push that just got up. Give the little guy more credit!
