Default Derby / Oaks locks and longshots
For the sake of using a horse who isn't 6/5 on the m/l (although I do think Wise Dan is the lock of the weekend), I'll go with...

lock - Birdlover in the Edgewood

longshot(s) - Falling Sky in the Derby, Princess of Sylmar in the Oaks

Who wants to go next?

Thought about playing a pick 5 tomorrow because I initially thought I could single Rumor. Second guessing myself though...0-2 at 7F is that a fluke or can it be excused?

Please note I said "sentimental lock". My cattledog in my avatar is named Rumor.

I remember reading somewhere Mandella saying if Rumor feels like running, she usually wins. I'm hoping she feels like running Saturday.

Definitely a longshot, but I keep seeing Java's War weaving thru traffic to key a huge exacta. Good luck to all!
