I have never seen a race so hard to handicap as the Hollywood Derby.

The Hollywood Derby is a very interesting race, this is an excellent betting opportunity, with what should be some quality horses at good value. The Matriarch another fantastic race should be more predictable it really comes down to 2 horses with perhaps a third.

Midships / Madeo in the Derby (... and welcome back Railroad in R5. Would love to see Fast and Furious do well there too but not playing it).

Good luck everyone.

PPF..

I am definitely including I Can See in the exotics. Backed off thinking she could take the top spot, but agree she's worth a look at boxcars.

G/L..

Yeah she is in very tough but she is a very useful mare. I have been watching her for a year or more, and she hasnt disgraced herself at all.

Well that was pretty impressive run by Cocoa Beach, Precious Kitten was 1/5 when they put up 25 and 49.

In the Matriarch I like Criminologist.

In the Hollywood Derby I like Madeo.

The Bet:

$50 win on Criminologist

$80 win on Madeo
