pyro is the best 3yo closing miler. He is such a good closing miler that he can be competitive in the Kentucky Derby with the stretch out.

J Be K was aided by a track bias to outside speed. Tale of Ekati ..eh

so, no Pyro isn't flattered

War Pass backing up to place on that track is terrible
on the other hand

Bob Black Jack barely hangs on for place on a track that is kind to closers (except Shore Do) is a good thing

no?

sorry but i keep wanting to add more... on top of what i already said... now instead of him being that sneaky wise guy horse, that he looked like before the wood... now instead of him being 10 or 15-1, i think you get 25 or 30-1 on a mott/gomez.... i am telling you, this horse fires his best ever race in the derby.
