If I get anywhere near the 6-1 ML on Battle Plan I will be making my largest wager of the year. Even though I doubt I will, he has the looks of one of those horses who opens at 4-5 or even money then maybe drifts up to around 3-1.

Pretty big step up there, off of that allowance race. This horse could be really good, I hope he stays sound.

I did not bet him, I actually did not even single him in most of my plays I used him and HMB... I keyed him on one pick 3. I thought they would bet him like that.

With pletcher and a high BSF last out was bound to be lower than 6-1

I thought Stay Put ran much better than his 5th beaten 3 final would indicate. Was 3W around the first turn and 5-6W around the second, and was one of the only horses to close in the race as the 1,2,3 after the first call ended 2,1,4.

Yeah, that was not Jamie Theriot's finest work. Unfortunately he's short on graded earnings and isn't getting to the Derby but he could re-surface down the road.

I tried him too but he's a hanger. They made a big deal out of Drosselmeyer's trip on the absolutely awful USA telecast but I didn't exactly see an explosive move once he was free, and everything went perfect for him before the stretch. I don't like anything moving forward out of this race.

Drosselmeyer is an absolute roach. I hope thinking that he was a good horse is my last horrible opinion for this crop. He will not be in the Derby and that's good because he has no place there whatsoever.

I totally agree, he had a DREAM TRIP... Then had a little trouble, when he gets out, if good enough he is supposed to win, I think the winner might be ok, this race was only his third of the year off a sprint and wide trip... Besides the winner I dont see much, Dutrows horse can be a big time sprinter.

You think that the any closer had a dream trip in this race? Or in the RS? The winner didn't get too good of a setup, did he?
