I would say Zanjero should be used in exotics for sure. He's never been off the board (yet.)

Anyone who would have thought Discreet Cat was capable of winning the world cup with all that went wrong weeks before the race should be given a free tee shirt. The Cat is a tremendous horse that should never entered the starting gate that day.... but greed and money mix well..

I know, just kidding around. Any jab at Jamie's horse is a good one.

at least you waited until rush hour was over to claim prescience n Discreet Cat. Still haven't run across one person who hasn't claimed to have dismissed the horse.

You still sticking with Cobalt Blue?

And how about one of brianwspencer's favorite horses... Storm in May. Worth a shot... I think he's been off the board in maybe one start.

That is true....only once, and he ran into some traffic on the turn in that one and had to "steady."
I still don't think he is a good play in the Derby though (if he goes in that race) even in exotics. I just don't think this horse will be particulary effective going 10f.
His style seems best suited to being a closer in sprint races. I think he will be most effective closing in races run from 6f, to one-turn miles.
He is a fairly versatile horse however, so I could be wrong.

Of course, Storm in May's broodmare sire is Relaunch. A couple of years ago there was another horse out of a Relaunch mare that I didn't think could get 10f effectively. His name was Ghostzapper.
I have now started quoting and arguing with myself. That is always a good sign.

He's not a dirt router in my opinion. . . Can he get 10F?

No clue, but his pedigree suggests that he can. And you made me say this...

They can all get 10 furlongs. It's just a matter of how fast.
