Derby setting up perfect storm for smart bettors

If john takes to the chruchhill dirt... hes going to very tough to beat. War pass simply will not be able to wire the field. I also agree danzig, pyro may have a very very nice trip.

can't rule out war pass completely--track conditions could be a factor. but i'd say that he will have a very hard time winning this race based on his style and the amount of other speed in the race. getting caught in the wood doesn't bode well for adding that 10th furlong.

Danzig rain will obviously help him but even with it, I don't think he has enough to win. He's shown he wants to be out front and there is no fathomable way he can outsprint everyone and hold onto it...

I agree, his tongue will have layers of CD dirt!

He won't be on top of my ticket. But 14/1 futures might have been value....

this horse was gasping for the line, and its not like Ekati was flying late so him getting the distance at the derby would be a surprise for me. I honestly don''t know if Lapenta and Zito are gonna enter this one in the derby. Before the race Lapenta was interviewed and said that War Pass had a lot to prove coming back from his TB derby performance.

Let's Go Caps.... got tickets for the 2nd game of the series, would have rather played Ottawa but Pitt has never helped us out in the past why would they start now, right?
