4/12 (OP): Arky Derby; Inst. Racing; N. Spur

[Gate Dancer]

That's the feeling on Indian Sun's post position draw. Will have to make King's Silver Son the foundation for most exotic wagers in the Ark Derby. Indian Sun will have to tuck and drop and hopefully not lose to much ground. Still like the exacta box but not quite as much as before the draw.

As a side note--The WinStar Derby for Liberty Bull was another scenario that 'DrugS' has illustrated so well this past week. He chased two front runners then swooped by as they both collapsed. Plus he beat nothing in that race as the second place horse (Screen To Screen) lost at odds on in his return maiden race at Santa Anita.

I'm starting to tilt toward My Pal Charlie. He may have "outrun his odds" as they keep saying, but he was a $300k purchase and the progression on the pp's looks good

I haven't looked at the PPs yet but I'm also a little interested in My Pal Charlie. What's the deal with #s 12, 13, and 14 being grouped together as the field?

I like the "field". The ml odds are up and Charlie is listed at 12-1, as the field is also. Gayego 5-2, I wouldn't normally like him but he did finish in front of Bob Black Jack.

I think Jazz in the Park is interesting, at a minimum. Wish his price would be better than it's going to be with the "field" designation.

Blackberry Road will get up and win it.

I'm playing My Pal Charlie.

Oh and Chuck's horse in the Instant
