WV I think and Breen has never been afraid to ship around.

Sweet Ducky gave it his all and Pants on Fire came close but they could not break Breen's now 0-29 streak in graded stakes races on dirt at a mile or more.

If you had the Hall's money you wouldn't be afraid to ship either....Anyway, I think he is a cinch in WV.

I think Tapizar is also a horse that deserves some respect. He is #13 on my list now but if he wins another race he'll move up on my list dramatically.

What if the twelve horses in front of him on your list all win another race too?

What if he never wins another race, will he move down?

Tapizar really looks like he could be a really good horse. However I want to see him run against other good horses not a bunch of bums like the ones he ran against in the Sham Stakes.

Tapizar is not nearly as hilarious as Comma to the Top but those horses he beat in the Sham were mules.

What I like about Tapizar is he has proven that he likes Churchill. His maiden win was very impressive as well. Also he is already running faster than top older horses in California on the same card as him. (Not to say that the top older horses in California are so impressive) But in Kentucky he was running faster than older horses on the same card as him as well. And that was when he was only a 2-year-old. A 2-year-old running faster than 4-year-olds and up is very impressive. Don't you think?

Comma to the Top deserves some measure of respect. I don't think he's shown anything to consider him a hilarious addition to my Derby Dozen. However, I could be missing something. What did you see that you weren't liking in Comma To The Top?
