3/23 (FG): Louisiana Derby Day

[RHT2004]

Im torn on the 11th. Bricks is one of my all time favorite horses. He will also be 4-5 vs a strong group. Im not using War of will at all so maybe you just single Bricks and find your price in other spots.

So War of Will appears to face the softest pace he's had to deal with yet, but you think he's a total pitch?

You have a good opinion, but just tossing chalk because it's chalk likely doesn't help you. Why are you tossing this horse?

Not Baffert, Mott, Pletcher or Brown trained.

Its getting old. Worst then Alabama lately. I still think the pms about me in the selections is your best work. You'll never get back to that level in my book.

What you talking about. I’m just stating they are the only trainers you ever pick. Nothing malicious.

I like Country House. Im going to back up with Pletchers horse. Why back up with a heavy favorite? Im playing the race like this... Country House will move forward and be better then War of Will. The price will be better and i feel like my opinion is right. So why cover War of Will? Thats my thought process, but im open to talking about the race.

You're trying to hit a Pick-5, I assume. Why would you let the likeliest winner beat you, have some smart opinion in another leg, and blow the sequence because you're stubborn?

I like Country House more going forward as well.

Country house can improve but doesn’t this seem like a perfect setup pace wise for war of wills? I’m not a chalk guy but no way I would leave him off ticket in this race.

I haven’t looked at the field very thoroughly yet but shouldn’t Spinoff be forwardly placed and possibly press the pace?

I’m not sure I agree that this is going to be a soft pace for WOW.

Spinoff coming out of the 10 post may try to get front position early. Bankit started as a sprinter and gets Irad back aboard. Lemniscate likes to be up front. Sueno should be close to the pace. Of course there’s WOW. And I guess Mr. Money may try to run up front.

I have been known to blow scores leaving off big chalks.

Don't be proud of that. You're smarter than that.

Right or wrong i take stands. Anything under 8-5 is single or toss.
