Sweetsouthernsaint snuck in late to be the slight favorite over the my top three. This year that horse may be Curlin , he may be even better... but has a lot of history to buck. I can't come up with three standouts like last year off the preps this year. I thought the Blue Grass would clear up that picture, but just made it harder. If the Derby was run today, these are the odds that I think the public will give for the respected starters...and (what I think they should be).

Street Sense 5-1 my odds: (4-1)
NoBiz Like Shobiz 4-1 (8-1)
Circular Quay 7-1 (10-1)
Curlin 8-1 (12-1)
Scat Daddy 10-1 (10-1)
Great Hunter 12-1 (7-1)
Any Given Saturday 10-1 (15-1)
Cowtown Cat 15-1 (12-1)
Hard Spun 20-1 (12-1)
Dominican 25-1 (20-1)
Tiago 25-1 (35-1)
Stormello 25-1 (20-1)
Zanjero 30-1 (20-1)

anybody else will be 30-1 or more and realistically should be that

I think you might be off on Curlin, he has bad favorite written all over him.

He ran monsterous yesterday, I am guessing an absolute HUGE TG number, and will be an absolute toss for me 20 days out.....if they gave him until the Preakness I would unload on him there

With all the things he has to go up against...anything under 10-1 is crazy on him.
Agreed, the Preakness would be a better spot.
In the Derby, if he's that good...I'll let him beat me at those low odds.
