Default Danger to Society

Since we haven't had a 'This is my Derby horse' thread yet, I figured I would be the guy to start one. This horse Danger to Society really was impressive today IMO. He is out of Harlan's Holiday out of a Deputy Minister mare, who produced Silver Charm. I am assuming that he wasn't 100% cranked and still beat some horses that are being considered to be very talented. He is my official Derby horse for 2009.

Looking forward to seeing him run in the upcoming stakes at Gulfstream.

Whew. I thought this was a thread about your after-track activities

Exactly who in that field is very talented, other than the winner??

1) I need to correct myself and say that Danger to Society's dam is a half to Silver Charm

2) Idol Maker once he gets gelded will be good, and They're Late has some talent. Probably shouldn't have used 'very' though...

Owned in part by our old buddy LBigDog77. He doesn't come around here anymore, but good to see him with a nice three-year-old after First Samurai's issues.

I agree and would love the week by week and then day by day update he gave us w/FS. I still have a FS hat. Come back home Lans

Had him on ATR Tuesday. Don't forget the Southern Hemisphere 4yo he and McPeek'd brought back Saturday at GP... National Kid. They're going after the UAE Derby with him.

I think Free Country has more upside. Both ran basically the identical time today for 9f.
