i tend not to root for or against (except last year) horses in the derby. i'm not keen on the half owner, or the trainer, but i think i want revenge is going to win. the only gr 1 winner on dirt in the field, how bizarre!

i'm somewhat surprised anyone is naming 'hold me back'. mott, from what i read after his win in his 3 yo bow, doesn't like his horses chance at all on dirt. he said to look at his remsen 'run'-that the horse didn't have a straw in his path, but still ran poorly. he then mentioned his successes on poly...

I will take Dunkirk.

GPK · #64 05-01-2009, 12:42 PM

Historically I suck at picking Derby winners. This year should be no different.

Maybe it is just me, but I thought he looked like he needed to lay down and take a nap he was so exausted through that last furlong here last month.
Based primarily on the way he finished up that race, but also on the lack of stamina in his pedigree, I don't see how the 10f will do anything but hurt him.

Sorry, but there is just no way he holds off Friends Lake down the stretch.

In a work or race?? The horse shows up on race day PERIOD

tickets have been punched and so I am on record so if it comes thru I will not be a red boarder etc (is that the right name?)

exacta box Musket Man, Friesan Fire, Papa Clem, Dunkirk and Flying Private

win and place bet on Musket Man

Scurlogue Champ · #77 05-01-2009, 08:02 PM

Desert Party...

I plan to bet everything I have on Visit in race 8 though, so she needs to win or else I'm tapped out.

RollerDoc · #78 05-02-2009, 03:51 PM

I predict the successor to Big Brown as Kentucky Derby Champion will be Chocolate Candy.

King Glorious · #79 05-02-2009, 04:43 PM

I went with:
1. Friesan Fire
2. Pioneerof the Nile
3. Musket Man

Would be more than happy to see Pioneer win to shut up certain know it alls on here or one of the Dubai horses to silence those that say that their way will never work.
