Another Derby Thread!
I tried to match relative styles, strengths, potential odds etc. Bold the horse you think will finish ahead of the other.

Of course, it's not a straight proposition. Each match-up has odds attached as well. For instance: Santiva -120 Twinspired +105 |

The thing about some of the matchups that Vegas offers is that there is often little separating the 8th place finisher from the 20th place finisher. It seems like in the Derby, you have anywhere from 1 to 3 good efforts, followed by a bunch of horses who simply throw in the towel earlier than others.
Although Backtalk was a sinch to finish last in 2010. |
