What? I don't like Dunkirk to win this race. I have not seen a horse win yet that ran at Gulfstream the weekend of the Florida Derby. I am anxiously awaiting the outcome of Nicanor's next race to base my final bet on.

Didn't Nicanor just break his maiden on grass at Delaware by 15 lengths.

-Big Drama ran in the Preakness. That was a pretty tall order (even though I loved him that day).

-This Ones for Phil ran only once since and he got a pretty bad trip and ran well to be 2nd behind a very impressive Mr Fantasy.

-Quality Road got injured and hasnt run once since.

-Nicanor broke his maiden winning by a pole.

I wouldnt rush to judgement on this group just yet.

Dunkirk beat Warriors Reward at GP, who came back to win an impressive Allowance race on Oaks day at Churchill.

Dunkirk beat Santana Six at GP, who finished a good second in a Stakes race at Monmouth last Saturday.

It's perfectly fine to not like Dunkirk. But to use "everyone at GP sucks" angle isn't going to get you very far.

Thanks for posting these. I think the odds are pretty spot on. I do think Charitable Man and Mine that Bird will flip flop and Charitable man will be the post time favorite going off at about 9/5. Hes the talk of the town and the barn will be unloading on him.

There's almost no chance that you're right - despite the amount of money the KMc barn usually bets.
