Pretty good, huh? It might even make me rethink Friesan Fire. The Derby is frequently about overcoming adversity and traffic and I think one would have to say the =I Want Revenge= did just that today. To be sure this Wood field was symptomatic of the fields made mostly of NW1X entrants we see in this era of dispersed Derby Preps, but it was still a $750,000 race.

“...I Want Revenge= did just that today.”
With both FF and Pamplemousse (if he runs) training up to the Derby, I can’t bet either to win. For the first time in years, I don’t have a solid pick to win. I’d have to say Revenge and Quality Road are my only two win contenders.
