I'll be using Dominican on my tickets but at this point I think Hard Spun and Any Given Saturday have the best chance to win at decent prices. . .

Zanjero could also spice up the exotics. . .

Any Given Saturday and Hard Spun should both be over 10-1. I consider that a pretty nice price.

He could be the forgotten horse in the betting. I think he is still a lot better than what he has shown. I like Dominican as a longshot seem like he is getting stronger with every race.

Looks like it's Shaun Bridgmohan - I'm shuddering at the thought

I'm actually glad he's on him. He had a couple of decent rides up on him.

I'm not particularly fond of Bridgmo. His winning season at Arlington went to his head rather quickly. Yes, he is a good jockey, but it's difficult for me to get past the 'tude. I just hope he rides Zanjero well, because I rather like that horse

No clue, but I feel like (and this is JMO) it is smarter to put a jockey that's already been up on the horse on for the Derby.

After looking at the past performances, you might be right. He is the only jockey who got him up there to win. I may have to put my personal feelings about Bridgmo aside on this one.

why is nobody mentioning SAM P.

I think he has a real shot at boxcar odds. He has had bad rides/trips and can move forward.
