Yeah he looks like the most likely winner to me as well. I remember betting Brokers Tip in 1933 I LOVED HIM

Classic Empire won first time out on a sloppy sealed track
which happened to be Churchill Downs. Although I guess that doesn't put him in a "move up" position. |

I guess I won't look at "mudders" as much as closers. Wet track tends to speed up the pace in the Derby quite a bit.

Wasn't midnight lute a good mudder? I remember him rolling on the breeders cup sprint in the slop

You would think that with all the eyes on all these hosses that someone would have noticed any mudfeet in the field

He was incredible that day. Talked Midnight Lute and that win with John Sikura Tuesday as it happens. As Welsch, Gary Young and I discussed Monday, Sonneteer worked over a track with a lot of moisture in it and looked terrific.
