I would be in a state of shock if he wins the Derby. He got a dream trip from the garden spot behind three horses going too fast in the KY Jockey Club. The final 5/16ths of that race was run in 31.60 - by comparison, a 2yo filly MSW race on the same card, at the same distance, produced a final 5/16ths in a faster 30.77.

Even with all going his own way - his Beyer was only in the 80's - and he's almost 10 points slower than Giacomo was as a 2yo .. and unlike Giacomo, his big fig came with things going his way ... as opposed to earning it with a legit trip.

I don't know, it is a free $25 and I have to play it, I think he will at least get there...

If you had to play $25 on the wager, one bet, who would you do? I'll consider it, and give you a 10% royalty if it happens, and don't give me no 4/1 shot.....
