I think you have to think of the jocks that will be sending

maybe who have had some fast works: El Kabier and Danzig Moon
come to mind. I think both AP and Dortmund will both be in the
first flight and think the first 1/4 will be in 23 and up.
IMO this group isn't very fast early - will see in the pp's Sun am
Correct! The derby seems to be run differently than most races. But with Dortmund and Pharaoh liking the front you know all it takes is one other cheap speed horse to ruin the fav's day. There are several in here capable of doing that. The last 1/8 is the determining factor.
