i dont understand why randy and jerry bailey think this race will take too much out of Streen Sense. It wasnt that tough of a running in a slow time and on the poly.

I think he revised that statement because of the soft fractions. SS ran hard only down the stretch.

I'm still waiting to get goosebumps over ANY Derby horse. Curlin's got the last chance.

My rookie analysis

THROW OUT THROW OUT THROW OUT RACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

However, this was such a great tune-up for SS. I love the fact that he has been battled tested in his last two races. If he is able to run straight he wins this race by a neck. I like how SS is able to close into the fractions and be a little closer to the front. They finished up the race very well which is mis-leading because 3/4ths of the race was SLOW.

Great Hunter also ran a good race as well. I love his running style. I like how he can settle and then pounce. I really think he needed this race and I think he will be fit for the 1st Saturday in May.

I have a feeling the horses we saw today will make the most noise in the Derby.

I to think GH and SS will be major factors, but I think the horse that went on a little jog in Hot Springs today will be your favorite. He looked damn good.
