Maybe I'm just completely nuts for liking this horse, but his last race on the dirt at GP, and his dirt works after the Santa Anita Derby are interesting enough for me to like him more than any of the top finishers in the Derby, and I think he could be a factor at pretty big odds.

I want to like him too, especially considering he's been pretty good on the dirt. The problem I had was that his GP race looks a bit counterfeit given that the runner-up got beaten badly in minor graded stakes on dirt and synth and the 3rd place finisher is a claimer. This guy had everything his own way with the slow pace and the track was strong speed favoring on 1/31.
I think of the new shooters, everyone's darling Big Drama ranks at the top of the list. I get the feeling this race will end up quite formful.
