Nobiz Like Shobiz....fits all the angles, has the PF and drew well. He's never run a bad race, I think he wins this although Street Sense would not surprise me! Go with the value and play Nobiz.

Street Sense really fits being a duel qualifier and has run 12 second splits for a distance of ground and is dead game coming home.

I think the post is perfect with the speed outside of him
he gets good position

I'm on the Hard Spun bandwagon, as well. I like his post position and I agree with LJ the he just has a high cruising speed. I think HS's work reflected that plus his like for the Churchill surface.

Still the same as it's been for several months..Circular Quay

[Danzig]

hard spun
been watching this guy since january. he's fast, has the right pedigree to go the distance--danzig has his preakness and belmont winners, now with one of his last chances, he gets his 'triple crown'.

hard spun. stakes winner #195 for the claiborne legend.

Win on CQ but I will have some others with dbls pk3 and 4s. With a choice of only one and the opening odds it CQ.

My mistake I thought Street Sense was in post 16. I love Street Sense from the 7 hole. I will use S.S. and C.Q. with the all button.

i hate the post, I still like Any Given Saturday...






and besides, 10 (Giacamo) + 8 (Barbaro) = 18 (ANY GIVEN SATURDAY)...

Any Given Saturday - GG will have him in the back and he will just be in an all at drive to win at the wire by a length of Liquidity

Hard Spun or Street Sense.....maybe a gate to wire photo....who the hell knows....is it me, or does this Derby seem much more wide open then those of recent history.....over the past several years, there was always 2 or 3 horses that the "experts" could kinda come up with either a feel good story or the makings of a rivalry...this year they could pick about 10 horses. it's crazy...

That's your exacta boxed!

After careful consideration...Street Sense
post makes sense...form makes sense...and with Curlin on the inside & AGS on the out...winning makes sense!
