If Pletcher's horses show life today and on tommorow's undercard, I am going to fire a bomb and bet get this Aikenite to win tommorow. At 20-1, I am willing to fire some money his way on the opinion that this derby was not as strong as the 104 beyer it was awarded.

Not much wagering interest for me here. Maybe just take Dublin thinking GoGo would like to stick it to 'that white haired guy'. (that's how my wife knows him, lol )

I think people are making too much out of the Gomez-off revenge thing. He's ridden for Baffert hundreds of times, and I assume he'll ride for him plenty in the future, too. It's just that they're going in another direction with LAL.

Not a very good direction, but another direction.

And last time I checked, Dublin didn't care about the white haired guy. He's still a hanger who won't win.

I've already lost money on Aikenite this year.

I'm a sucker for those Dogwood Stables runners.

I think Aikenite is a plodder tomorrow though.

Jackson Bend holds the key to the race, with Smith aboard he should set the pace. If not Super Saver has the big ad here.

I like Jackson for a piece, but I just don't think he will hold on in that last furlong. He will control the pace inside though, and it doesn't look as if there is going to be a lot of pressure. Aikenite is another that I'm interested in.

I am kinda leaning towards Jackson myself. I haven't made a final decision yet though. I will in a few hours though. It will depend on how much Derby took out of him. He may not win, but I do think he will be in the $$$.
