MIDNITEMAGICMAN
gelding, Tavistock-Keep Alight Trainer: Donna & Dean Logan (Habibi 2013) Jockey: Vinnie Colgan (Roysyn 1995, Zonda 1997, Hades 1999, Redoute's Dancer 2007, Habibi 2013 - all-time record) 8 starts 1 win 2 seconds 3 thirds NZ$50,775 2nd Foal Stakes 2nd Trevor Eagle Memorial 3rd Jesters Pies Salver 4th Gr. 2 Avondale Guineas He took a while to win one, but this guy never runs a bad race and I'm sure he'll make his team proud again on Derby day. The Logan team have Volkstok'n'barrell as their man Derby runner but Midnitemagicman is better than just a backup. Current odds: 18 My ranking: 8th Last edited by _ed_ : 02-23-2015 at 10:58 PM.

PRIMA
gelding, Sir Percy-Azabella Trainer: Doug Cave (no Derby wins) Jockey: Mark du Plessis (no Derby wins) 4 starts 0 wins 1 second 1 third NZ$29,850 2nd Gr. 2 Avondale Guineas 3rd Gr. 2 Waikato Guineas Still a maiden, but he's come from nowhere to become a major Derby player. He was third in the Waikato Guineas at 130-1 and second in the Avondale Guineas at 54-1. He is the real deal and has to be respected again in the big one! Current odds: 18 My ranking: 7th

MARGIN TRADER
gelding, Tavistock-Power And Might Trainer: Michael Moroney & Chad Ormsby (Moroney: Great Command 1996, Cut The Cake 2003 and Xcellent 2004; Ormsby no Derby wins but second as a jockey aboard Historian in 2011) Jockey: Rhys McLeod (AUS) (no Derby wins) 5 starts 1 win 1 second 0 thirds NZ$22,976 5th Gr. 2 Great Northern Guineas 5th Gr. 2 Waikato Guineas 9th Gr. 2 Avondale Guineas This could be a dangerous longshot. I loved the late finish he showed in his first few starts, and it looks like the distance will be no problem for him at all. He got no luck at all in the Avondale Guineas, stuck wide all the way and he was too far back with that slow pace. A few people (myself included) might have forgotten about him a little bit... Current odds: 31 My ranking: not in the top 10

DEE I CEE
gelding, Istidaad-Smashed All Night Trainer: Kevin Myers (C'est La Guerre 2008) Jockey: not confirmed 4 starts 2 wins 2 seconds 0 thirds NZ$11,750 No stakes races It's hard to know what to expect from this gelding, a half-brother to the Telegraph runner-up Designated Driver. He hasn't faced stakes opposition yet, but he's looked strong in weaker grades. There's only one way to find out for sure how good he is, and that's in the Derby on Saturday. Current odds: 18 My ranking: 10th
