Do you want the list of faster older horses, too? This is the Beyer leaderboard for all distances, but plenty of Triple Crown nominees are so-far faster than Nobiz's 98.

A different picture when you just look at a mile or more. Interesting who the only horse on there twice is.

He's a nice colt, Sniper... but I think he's going to need to calm down a bit if he plans on winning the derby. I was definitely impressed with him on Saturday.

Edit: I realized how dumb the above sentence sounded... I don't think Ketchikan is planning on anything, but his connections probably are.

Yes it would have been more appropriate to consider just three yr old routes. which Sniper has done. My point is that there are no breakaway speed merchants on that list that are so far ahead of NoBiz that you can just cast him aside and call him too slow. Some of those numbers I think are a little suspect and will need to be confirmed. He may not win the derby, but No Biz gives hints that he could run even better if he behaves, maybe blinkers will help, but he certainly this year can't be put on the list of being too slow to win the derby as it would take only a very small improvement to put him right in the mix.

Funny you mentioned, I've been waiting on him as a friend of a friend owns him and i got in my first gulfstream photo a few weeks ago.He worked the other day in like 1:10.4 ! Its been announced that he will run on the undercard of the florida derby in the Aventura stakes at 7F, probably vs Jerkens , Blue Bullet, another speed burner.

PG1985..funny to me how you can dismiss Adore The Gold and any post and/or trip issues he may have had and yet STILL continue to gush over NBLS while making excuses for him. I am not a huge ATG fan in terms of Derby prospects, but I am still trying to understand your complete fascination with that goofball in Taggs barn?

lets just wait to the wood, im predicting right now 4 weeks out that he wins it by more then 2 lenghts..... so lets just wait and see if he is a goofball in Taggs barn, or if tagg has another serious derby horse.

well buddy why dont you make a prediction, i put myself out there, if he losses i will have to here it from all of you, and if he wins i get no praise, but i still put out there what i feel and i feel he will improve with the blinkers and win the wood, regardless of who else runs in the wood

well with the way most of you responded about nobiz when i originaly posted this thread you'd think he was going to be 50-1 in the wood
