I love derby post position theorists.



This already looks like a race that could get stolen by some filthy sneak.

But I will reveal no more at this time.

If anything wins wire-to-wire, it would probably be Hard Spun....and with Mario Pino up, who's never seen a horse he didn't want to rate into submission, I doubt he'll be on the early lead.

Do you mind?



Saying it can make it happen.

Or didn't you know that?

I am far from convinced that Curlin is the " best horse ".

I would say AGS and Cowtown Cat are my top two right now.

You are not fighting the devil hard enough.

You must resist with all your might.




Satan comes in many forms...my friend.

These are going to be 2 of them.

Really? What is it that you like about Cowtown Cat?
He hasn't impressed me at all.

You are right. I was criticized last week for saying that. I was pointing out that he is no Slew or Smarty Jones. This horse is the talk of the public, the non-betting public. Does he remind you of Bellamy Road?

I would say that Street Sense is #1 followed closely by Curlin & NoBiz...of course whoever the media spits out the most will of course be taking the $$.
