CNL: Field for $1MM Virginia Derby
anyone else on here think anything about circular quay in this race? I was surprised when i saw his name on the entries. What are his chances? Seems like a grass runner with his come from behind tactics. Also did i see that CBS is showing this race? If so, who will be commentators?

Im thinking Love Dubai runs them down late. I look for Circular Quay to **** the bed once again.

Circular Quay does have a decent dam-side pedigree for the turf (Shadeed, Danzig, etc.) but I honestly can't really think of a reason to play him in this race.
However, I'm sure I will talk myself into it by the time of the race. I always manage to invent some reason to play this colt that seems logical to me at the time......and then foolish later on. |

I like Duveen who had a trouble trip last time and also had to overcome slow pace at CD, plus he gets Prado who has a few Va. Derby winners

Quay's bred decently for grass, but I don't think he wants to go ten furlongs no matter what surface it's on..

Summer Doldrums may repeat at Colonial in this race as with two nice turf races with forward moves may do so again. Real nice win in G3 at similiar distance ....Why is SD left out of most discussions in this race??

With any pace pressure on that one, Duveen looks pretty tough in here. |

I hope Summer Doldrums continus to be ignored, but it's probably only because he looks the part of a very low priced horse. If he's overlaid, in my mind, I would be happy with 4-1, but I'd have to box with Strike A Deal
Inca King looks interesting |
