I hope BBJ gets in. His last race showed me something about him and I want to see more or find out if he is just a sprinter, I am thinking he may not be.

I think the last race showed he isnt just a sprinter. And switching to dirt imo would be more beneficial to his running style. He is a better horse when he makes the lead, not when he sits just right off it. I'd like to see this horse get sent to the lead in the Derby. At 15/1 or higher, there are definetely worst stabs in this race, especially now that his chief rival War Pass is out. I also like the fact Solis was so eager to committ to this horse 3 weeks prior to the Derby, instead of playing the waiting game and shopping around, if you will. Lots to like.

Thanks mbahadur for the quick posting of the list...

Salute the Sarge now 99% out, so make it like this with both fillies highly questionable and assuming Behindathebar goes:

1 Pyro 1,020,000
(X) Proud Spell $880,000
2 Tale of Ekati 738,000
3 Colonel John 720,000
4 Gayego 640,000

21 Halo Najib $157,996
22 Indian Sun $154,000
23 Tomcito $151,292
24 My Pal Charlie $150,000
25 Hey Byrn $140,000

Spent a good part of the a.m. today with David Carroll, and Denis of Cork who works 5/8ths tomorrow at 8:30 and looks terrific physically. Carroll is cautiously optimistic about the chances of Denis running and is still rather irked about having had his plan interfered with by Mike Ryan and Mark Reid.

I wish Denis of Cork could make the trip. He's the only live futures wager I have left.

AW..

Not coming according to Haskin from Zayat's stable manager guy. (Zabu or whatever they call him). Derby Trial and Woody Stephens intended. That's as of yesterday... (And seems especially probable given that Halo could very likely get in with an injury/defection or two..)

Steve: Any word form David Carroll about who would ride Denis of Cork should he get in the Derby field ? Albarado and Leparoux are already committed to other mounts.

Poor Denis
I'm really pulling for him to make it in. He's not my favorite Derby horse, but I like him...my preference is no fillies to enter this year....please!
Not optomistic about that at all, however.

I don't think this question has been answered, will the owners for sure send Denis of Cork if he can get in? I would have no problem using him at 30-1, would seem like a similiar Bluegrass Cat choice.

You don't think the question has been answered? Am I writing in Sanscrit?
