Calvin is certainly in a league of his own at CD, I finally hit the Derby this year and he was the only reason I went with SS. Coming out of the #4 hole isn't the easiest trip but he handled the horse to perfection. Don't see this horse as good enough to end the TC drought but with Calvin he has a slight chance!

Riding the rail is tough because you have no way out. If you go to loop the field from the oustide you can always go wider if neccessary. When your on the rail if a horse drops down to the rail your stuck. Horses arent like cars... if you break stride in the stretch 99% of the time you don't win.
