The Champagne when sent off a New York nickle over even money is a complete toss as MW ran like a "crab" and had hoof issues. Trainers lose sleep over blind quarter cracks and stone bruises and the ultimate diagnosis according to Kinsman was a hoof wall separaration. The benign three furlong works twelve days after his races indicate caution and the string of Saturday works as a sophomore are similar in nature to the work pattern before MW's debut. At any rate this one comes to hand fast and it will be revealing how he works tomorrow or Saturday.

Conclusion: One of a half dozen or so that can get the roses.

It appears to me he has not matured at the rate one would expect of an early 3YO and perhaps in the care of a more hands on trainer he would be further along the Derby Trail"

The true comedy here is I took the words out of your mouth. I'll book whatever you want on this horse to win the Derby.

How much will you take Phil and what are the odds?

Sniper is right.

David Carroll is a trainer known for gradually improving horses going into the big races.


Give me a bleeping break. Carroll has had lots of high dollar horse flesh and done jack and bleep with them.

We'll see where this Denis of Cork is when it matters.


Oh and I never said anything about Majestic Warrior and the derby.

He's 30-1 in Vegas, I'd offer that on $500. But this bet was only available to BBB. I don't need the money.
