Is there any room left on the bandwagon, I'd like to get on.

Thx Gus! Was a very good.. and very long.. day. Florida Derby the highlight obviously. Go easy on the Brown stuff yet. Those feet were heavily patched and they will have to be careful every single day for 5 weeks that nothing goes wrong. Think Roman Ruler or Declan's Moon. No foot, no horse. He's very nice though. I'm sticking with my plucky, 'Rocky'esque contender with the puncher's chance.

Steve, 1st of all, nice work overall with your 1st hand information. You can add Rockport Harbor to that mix. At this point, he'll (BB) have to beat me again in the Derby. BB's performance reminded me of Bellamy Road in the Wood. Smooth Air was gritty and earned his ticket to the Derby. Great story as well. Hey, maybe Blackberry Road has two big efforts in him? The next two weeks should be awesome as well.

I agree with the kudos to Mr. Byk.... excellent analysis and Smooth Air and rest of the derby choices really perked up a rathor average day money wise... I liked Tomcito getting into the picture and had the tri twice... but like a fool didn't play byrn in my super ..... doh!!!

Thx Willie.. Happy you scooped up the jacks! Well done... Considering the 3-2 number on the winner, the exotics were OK... Thought the P4 was generous as hell too considering the 3 winners after the must-use Bonnie Miss winner..

Thanks for some great info Steve,did well yesterday! Was I the only one that saw BB take a bad step 75 to 50 yards from finish? I agree it is still along way to derby day and he sounds like if he breaths wrong sometimes he may pop a quarter crack.On the way to windy city sat. and Johnnys for sure....at least twice.
