Highest “mud” marks are , General Quarters (coincidentally,
my choice.)
Friesan Fire
Dunkirk
in that order.
Have a hunch Dunkirk’s odds will increase, while the only horse’s getting shorter will be I Want Revenge.
Something about the name will add perverse appeal to thousands of bettors and he’ll go down to 9-5
Why is Desert Party overlooked?
And my other co choice, West Side Bernie?
If I didn’t “Know better”, I’d almost think IWR will be compromised by Post #13.
He may want to clear the field, but there will be an AWFUL
lot of early speed inside him.
OTOH, Talamo is a prodigious jock with natural gifts.
I just don’t think IWR will win/
On class alone Pioneerof the Nile looks like a good one, with winning ways.
It’s going to be an interesting Derby, but I’m going with some oddball horses, that I’ve already detailed in previous replies here. GOOD LUCK TO ALL>

I will definitely have Desert party in there. Respect him.
Good luck.

OMG what a race!!! Did either of you have the winner?

That horse looked like he was shot out of a cannon when he made his move on the rail. I ROTFLMAO when they said that the owners hauled him to Churchill Downs on a trailer hooked up to the back end of a pickup truck - 21 hours straight through. LOL

The horse only cost $9,500. and had run only forth in an obscure race a few days ago out in New Mexico. UNBELIEVABLE! LOL

bttt
