Great job IH and Digger. Not sure what youi saw in Soverneignty to win but you both nailed it, with IH hitting straight exacta. EXCELLENT!

the numbers were all there, distance and off going, and his turn of foot rivaled Journalism...didn't need to win his last and ran well from the horrid post at GP...set him up and he looked great training...perhaps Tappan Street would have bene right there...

just my 2c....that wound up right for a change...

A very simple, uncomplicated play that we all could do well to emulate. Kudos on the win.

Personally, I had a terrible day up until the Derby. Lost nearly a hundred in the Pat Day alone and very nearly called it a day before the Derby, but said hell with it. It only comes around once a year, might as well go ahead and play. Glad I did and probably a lesson in that. Hit the exacta and the tri in the Derby. The only time in many years of play that I have done that.

Very nice hits, you guys! My horses ran second, third and 4th in the Derby. The winner nailed me good. Banishing's trip hurt me too.

Tough sport for sure.
